My agent called me at about 11:45 this morning to tell me that I had an audition for a Slim Jim commercial today at 1:45. I was at the gym so I ran home, showered, got dressed and drove to Santa Monica, where the audition was.
The audition was two lines of dialogue and we had partners. It was a lot of fun and I think it went really well. Monday and Tuesday are the callbacks so keep your fingers crossed! I would love to shoot another commercial:)

MEXICO
FINALLY got power back after about 84 hours! The fridge was messy to clean out but it was wonderful to take a warm shower. Now, as promised, my San Diego/Mexico blog!
My roommates, our friend Jamie and I all went to the Dodgers/Padres game, which the Dodgers won in a 5-0 shut out. After the game we drove to the border.
We parked in a lot specifically for people who wanted to walk across the border, and that's what we did. As we were about to cross over we saw a teenager who had thrown a rock at some man's car get tackled to the ground, which was pretty scary.
Once that excitement was over we walked into Mexico. We shopped and looked around right across the boarder and then we went a little way into town. We sampled some food and I bartered for a few souvenirs. Right now 11.5 Pesos = 1 American dollar. There were a few stray dogs and we saw a donkey painted to look like a zebra.
The thing that amazed me the most was how children who looked to be about 7 years old were both skilled street performers and excellent sales people! I had a lot of fun in the few hours we were there. As we were leaving the boarder guard asked me where I was born and before I knew it we were back in California.

Blackout Continued
First I would like to say thank you to my Florida (formerly Morris County) reader for the nice comment about my 200th Blog:) That made my day:) :) :)
Now, blackout update. I am again at the library writing this as we have now been without power for almost 41 hours! There are thousands of people in California without power and DWP (the division of water and power) has said they "hope to have the problem fixed by Friday!" That's at least 5 days of cold showers, canned food, 96 degrees inside my apartment and pitch black nights! (the emergency lighting system ran out of battery about 5 hours into the blackout) It really makes you appreciate the little things.
I will have a full article with more details published in the Daily Record as soon as the lights come back on. Also as promised I will post pictures and have a full report of my spur of the moment trip to Mexico!

BLACKOUT
Welcome to my 200th blog entry!:)
I turned on my computer yesterday to post a blog about my trip to San Diego and the power went out! I have been without power in my apartment now for about 15 hours. Without power there is no Internet, no place to charge my cell phone, no television, no lights and worst of all in the 112 degree heat, no fans! The electric company is not sure when the power will be restored! I am at the library right now writing this blog and charging my phone. I will save the San Diego blog for when the power comes back because after the Padres/Dodgers game we went to Mexico and I have pictures and lots to write.
In the mean time, my Labor Day was a lot of fun. I went to a BBQ with one of my roommates and a bunch of our deaf friends. We grilled and talked (in sign language) and then played an awesome game softball in the park. The BBQ was in Pasadena and the park was beautiful. My team won 14/13. I hope everyone had an awesome Labor Day and I promise as soon as the power comes back I will post another blog.

Swimming
Yesterday I decided to combat the California Heat Wave by SWIMMING! I haven't been swimming in forever! The best part was who I went swimming with. I went with fellow Randolph High School attendee, Sean Finn, who just moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in Music Producing. He is temporarily living in a really nice apartment complex with a really nice pool so we swam and chilled by the pool for hours. It was like deja vu and we reminisced about the old days of being 16 and in high school.
I'm going to San Diego for the Padres/Dodgers game today with my roommates and our friend Jamie. More on that tomorrow.
