It's been a while...

So, I fell off the blogging bandwagon over the last 6 months... Sorry!
Here's a quick recap:
August was slow for work. Did a lot of extra work and did some work for Allison and her contracting business.
September was more of the same. Tim got more work as a 2nd AD and we scraped thru.
October brought the advent of our first feature length film together! It's a low budget SAG film that we were both hired as crew for. I auditioned, but they cast a girl taller and thinner than me, so I hired on with Art Department instead. I was one of the 2 set dressers, which means I got to doll up the sets (bedrooms, bathrooms, etc) with the Production designer and Art director. Tim was on as the 2nd AD, which has become his go-to job on set when he's not acting.
November put us back to extra work and more work for me with Allison.
December gave us 2 weeks to get ready to go to NC for Christmas, but Tim got a lst minute gig in the Mojave desert for a week to AD so we pushed our flights back a week to make some more dough before we went mia for 3 weeks!
Christmas was wonderful, as usual. We had three fantabulous weeks hanging out with friends and family, just relaxing and eating. A lot.
We did regrout the kitchen floor and paint the upstairs bathroom, so we weren't completely lazy!
The day after xmas the whole family drove up to VA to hang with the LeRoy's up there and I slipped away to hang with my friends from the theatre I worked at when I lived there. I hadn't seen them in about a year, so it was a wonderful reunion :o)
Then we headed to Charlotte, NC, to see more LeRoy's (can't get enough!).
I hated leaving, but if this famous actor thing is going to work out, I have to get back to the grindstone!
So far January has been quite productive. I spent 16 hours on set of the new Judd Apatow movie and met an incredibly cool girl who I'm excited to be friends with. Most of the day was was spent listening to Russell Brand o stand up. If you've not heard of him, youtube him! He can be a little dirty, but he's mostly just brilliant and hilarious.
As we were flying back to SoCal from NC, Tim got a call for a 2nd AD gig that will take him until the end of the month. We were so freaking excited!!
Then, even better, he was able to pull me on as well. I'm mostly assisting but it's a steady paycheck (called cash) and I'm guaranteed work until the 30th of the month. It's not acting, is what you're thinking, BUT Tim and I got thrown into the movie, haha! It's a horror film and our characters are sneaking into a party at a haunted house and as we're sneaking around this huge scary dude who's been killing people grabs us and throws us over a railing and we somehow survive and run out of the house, and big scary dude continues killing people for some reason. Yesterday we shot the scene where Tim and I are sneaking up the stairs and a insert shot of our feet dangling (he's holding us up by the head). Today we got to do a bit of stunt work shooting the end of the scene where we land after being dropped and run/limp out of the house. How I fell down through a flight of stairs onto a wood floor in 6 inch platform heels without breaking/twisting my leg/ankle is a mystery to me, but it works I guess!
So if we don't get edited out, Tim and I will be on the big(ish) screen! I don't know that this will be a theatre release, but if anyone wants to see the clip, I'm sure we can make that happen.
Have your people call my people.
