ok people.
i'm sorry it's been a while since my last post.
i'm in a meeting as i type this.
i wonder if they think i'm taking notes.
i wonder if they think i'm smiling because i like their ideas.
i wonder if they read my blog.
things are going splendidly here in LA.
i moved into my new apartment yesterday, and no, i will not show you any photos.
(except for you, dad! i'll send some as soon as i get around to taking them!)
i've been writing with my amazing friends rachel thibodeau and jonas myrin.
here we are at rachel's hotel:
here's jonas being a total badass and talking on his cell phone in front of the "no cell phones" sign.
wow. what a rebel.
here we are in the mirror, looking at our lovely selves:
and here i am when it was time to leave:
i wish rachel and jonas could live in LA because they are two of my most favorite people. you can find rachel's myspace on my myspace page, and i will make jonas one of my top myspace friends as soon as he has a myspace page (!!! i know!) because you need to hear his music.
another cool thing:
i'm mildly obsessed with this.
at first i didn't get it.
not at all.
i mean, why do i need to update people every time something mundane happens in my life?
thanks to twitter, i can alert you via text message whenever i write a song or go to dinner with a friend or hit a parked car in my garage.
it's really cool. in the most self-obsessed, narcissistic way. and i mean that in the best way possible.
so sign up to receive my twitter texts (called "tweets" but i haven't gotten around to accepting that lingo yet) and stay informed.
my mishaps = your entertainment.
speaking of entertainment.....
i was given a very special sneak preview of my dear friend james gunn's newest project!
for those of you who don't know james, well, i don't really know where to start.
he does stuff like write and direct movies (slither, scooby doo, dawn of the dead) and destroy the dreams of wannabe horror film actresses (VH1's 'scream queens' starts in october!!) and is also a pioneer in the field of new media with several web tv shows in production and development.
one of which produced this stunning image:
it's called HUMANZEE and it's funny as hell and completely sick and twisted.
that guy in the photo is james' brother sean gunn, who you would recognize from gilmore girls and other actor-related shit if he weren't covered in fur and made to look like a total freak.
what else.....
i'm obsessed with ben folds.
his song 'one down' is the most brilliant.
this is a recent development, and i'm embarrassed to admit that it's taken this long!!
i'm planning something amazing for mid-november. i think. i can't tell you anything more about it at the moment. (what a lame update!!)
that's all for now.
more soon.
have fun.
enjoy life.
be well.
