Got a job today with security but think I may need to decline because of driving purpose. I have hit up alot of places around the area, when I say a lot i mean quite a few, probably 10-15 aiming high so in the grandscheme thats really not a whole lot. But I have also filled out quite a few apps and sent them in for security jobs. My soccer job has been pretty slow latley but I changed my hours so hopefully I am freed up for more extra work but also have more availability within my soccer days. I got a class this saturday that I can walk to from my complex so thats nice. Ive noticed myself saying the words grandscheme and ballpark every once in a while since I have been out here, looks like I brought my uncle Bill with me. Tom Waits came out with a new album, I think its awesome I havent had a whole lot of time to listen to it yet but it sounds very promising so far, good lyrics as anyways. You know Im thinking that i need to pick up the guitar a little more, I would like to get a little better maybe start to work on some finger picking and expand my library of songs i can play, maybe write some of my own. You know I also started watching Friday Night Lights I really think thats a good show, so far I have only seen the pilot. I helped out at a shoe giving yesterday to families in need and the people seemed very greatful, thankful for everyones help and the program thats there. We didnt have any plays this week or improv classes because of the thanksgiving week. This was a goodweek to not have anything like that going on just kind of reflect on whats important and trying to keep God at the top of my life. I have found that I have lost my touch with people a little bit, or maybe rather Im finding it, but I think Im ready to tap into what I have here and the people around me. I also want to start working 0n a short or a stand up bit or something like that. I think I have materail in my head its just a matter of getting it down on paper or word document or whatever means.

Late Night

3 chapters into the hunger games. Listening to Tom Waits. Having thanksgiving at Taylors. Running out of money. Skyped with Jeff. Need to talk to Bradley at somepoint. Help me God haha. You dont meet nice girls in coffee shops. Get a job save your money, Everybodys talking at the same time. You get to be king of the glove department or the fish bowl and then you have to find it again. haha is this nonsense.

Would like to just go to coffee instead?

Today I called down to the grove and let them know I got my guard card and luckily I called the head of public safety, so crossing my fingers for a call back on that. It would be nice to get a really steady job to help pay the bills, then I could scrape by a little better. I met a lady in the laundry room yesterday who moved here from Ohio in 1968. Thought shed have a better chance out here because black people werent respected or given as much of a chance as white men even if they had degrees back then. She told me not to get to caught up in the acting game and wanting to be famous, because most the people in the game that present themselves that way dont really have anything, or something like that. I still need to put a reel together and have been submitting to stuff through La casting. I might try and go to an open casting call with a talent agency tomorrow its run by an agent named Daniel Hoff who I have heard of a few times on set now and sounds legit. I was thinking about doing some stand up on pyramid schemes. I think I might wait for my next paycheck coming in before i purchase my surfboard, shoot. Ill atleast keep looking on it and checking my money situation. Ah boy, just thought Id make myself blog, its been awhile I guess. Might hit up an AFI film festival movie before improv class tonight. Maybe I should be applying for more jobs around the area and such, the guard jobs not guaranteed, i might not get a call until christmas or something like that. Ive also would like to look into a ping pong league, I believe I have heard my neighbors, so they must either be playing ping pong or beer pong, either way it sounds like fun. Lindsay Lohan hasnt been spotted in the area yet, so my hopes of taking her home for thansgiving or christmas arent looking up, but you never no when I might run into her, my uncle Mike is depending on me. O man what a confusing life, i keep forgetting to eat, although I really dont want to spend a dime, i dont have that many dimes, well more than i probably think it just doesnt seem like it. Im sure i have more to write, more on my mind, but we will peace out for now, peace out.
