Some kind soul reactivated my account so I am back

Thank you stranger...standby for a major update in the world of me...

My dad just had quadrupole bypass heart surgery and he is doing well.

The night before was hard because he called me on the phone, told me he loved me and to take care of my Mom if anything should happen to him. Having your father say goodbye to you "just in case" is not easy.

After that I only wanted to talk to one...

The film has been going well, 21 days done so far, only 3 more to go. Long days, bad food, hard work, but what else is new. I have lost 17 pounds in the last 3 weeks, that shows how hard I have been working.

As far as my non-work life, things have been better. I just moved into a new apartment in North Hollywood...

INT. BEDROOM - NIGHT

Fade into our protagonist vikprez laying on his bed typing away on his white iMac laptop computer. His cat circles the room meowing franticly for her long awaited dinner. Suddenly his cell phone rings.

vikprez - Hello?

Leslie - Hey there, I know I told you after our date a couple days ago I didn't feel that connection I was looking...

One of the best days of my life was September 22, 1993. I was 11 years old and my mom bought me and her tickets to go to a Seattle Mariners baseball game in the Kingdome. We intentional bought these tickets because it was a game against the Texas Rangers and Nolan Ryan, one of the best pitchers in baseball history was scheduled to be...

FYI...alcohol, pot and muscle relaxers do not cure depression, but it does give you a nice buzz.

Lately I have had no appetite. I mean none. I haven't really eaten anything for several days.

I am going to a movie premeire on Tuesday for a film I worked on as the Transportation Coordinator.

Tomorrow I am going to a play kickball and I am going...

Fuckwhy does this hurt so much.

I have so much I could say to her but don't really see the point, it's not going to make her change her mind.

That whole "some things are worth fighting for" is great in theory

I now have one regret though, and that does suck. Not something I did, but something I should have done.

So much on my mind, no one to talk to.

I guess it's true that some things are too good to be true.

Since my birthday, I have really been thinking about my life and what I am doing...changes I want to make...I have become oddly more creative, writing and enjoying music more.

I want a motorcycle since I just got my motorcycle license and...

This week I worked as an electrician on "General Hospital" and "So You Think You Can Dance." I worked the stage wrap out for "So You Think You Can Dance" pulling up almost 3 miles of 4/O power cable which is nicknamed "Horse Cock"....it's long, thick and black. About the size of your forearm, my arms are still sore from wrapping all the cable.

I...

This past week I was working as a Best Boy Electric on a film that was shooting up at Sable Ranch in the Palmdale area.

I spent three nights in a row working in the Condor operating a Mole 18k "moonlight"

Once I take the condor up to about 80 ft. there is nothing to do but sit and watch the 1,000's a bugs gathering...
