Life is...

...good, but hard!

Ok, we all know that, right? I had a fantastic week last week. Worked every day, Monday thru Friday on various shows. Look for me in a bout a month on Brothers and Sisters, Cougartown and an MTV reality show with pro skateboarder Rob Drydek.

I was also a part of a very top secret project called "Manhattan". I honestly can't tell you what it really was, but I can say that it's the new movie being filmed by Kenneth Branagh with Anthony Hopkins and Renee Russo... I won't tell you to look it up on www.imdb.com ... But, when the movie does come out, I'll see if I can find myself, and I'll post where to find me!

Do look for me on this coming Monday's episode of Greek. I should have some good face time at the Panhellenic meeting with Catherine out in the courtyard.

Had a great Valentine's Day. I've always been opposed to the day because I don't think that the romantic ideals of a relationship can culminate on one single day. It's a day full of pressure and hollow gestures; giving roses, teddy bears and chocolates. Roses die, teddy bears are for children and chocolates make me fat. I would rather have a live plant, a trip to the zoo and sushi.

Two thirds of which, I got. My Vday gift was 7 vegetable and herb seed packets to be planted throughout the year, a new pot, organic potting soil and the obligatory sweetheart candies (no calories!). Tim and I took a nice long walk through our neighborhood and the park, then went to dinner at a sushi restaurant (not too expensive) before coming home and catching up on Glee.

We did look into a trip to the zoo, and found out that if you make a "donation", they have an annual pass, not only for the Los Angeles zoo, but zoos and aquariums all over SoCal. I'm pretty stoked about it, and it's on our list of things to save up for!

Unfortunately, we had Monday off. Apparently, nobody films on President's Day, so we went hiking instead. We drove out to the Santa Monica mountains and hiked in the preserve to a place called the grotto. It was a nice 3 mile hike, and there was enough rock climbing to satiate our need to scale bits of nature like lizards :o)

Came home, exhausted, made pizza from scratch and then went out for a beer with my cousin Krysty and the cousins who live here. Had a great time chatting and catching up with everyone and then it was home and off to bed!

Today I got paid to sit around and play poker for a print ad that will be on fulltilt.com
I don't know if I'll actually be in the picture because they kept moving us in and out of the shot, but look for it in a month or so!

I'll post more when I find out the air dates (or see myself) and other info for the shows I've been working on.
