just got the third text message in under an hour, so it’s official: my bank of america commercial is now playing. so if you see a curly-haired doc in front of an atm, thass me.
also! my bones episode airs 14 april. tune in!
my playtex spot is running.
last night, i found out the identity of the name actress who got a project a) i was close to getting and b) was very close to my heart. to no one’s surprise, i placated myself with tears and wine.
the name is a talented person who’s work i’m moderately familiar with, so it’s not one of those what-the-fuck-were-they-thinking choices - it’s just…i dunno. every once in a while a project comes along that you, and those around you, just know you’re perfect for. this was one of those. it felt as though the stars had aligned.
i expected to be over these feelings this morning. obviously not. sigh.
normally, i don’t talk about these things here which is bad? good? i’m unsure. it definitely lifts the veil of the seemingly fancy “hollywood” life (which i’m always a fan of undercutting). lately, though, there have been a ridiculous number of THISCLOSE bookings, only to lose them to names. it’s aggravating to be so close to a new level and feel powerless to affect change.
the good news is that i’m still in the running for another show that is shaping up to be equally awesome. it looks like it’ll have a longer shelf-life, too. so fingers crossed.
thanks for listening to me blather. it’s one of those days.
my mcdonald’s commercial is airing.
fun fact: my bf thinks the guy (ace gibson) looks like tiger woods and, as such, hates his guts.
(bonus behind-the-scenes vid here)
the playtex shoot is tomorrow and i have my sonnet (based on shakespeare’s 18th) all written for the ad folk. although, after today’s fitting, i’m thinking i should alter it to include something about my flabby-ass body…but i’ll refrain.
ENRICH YOUR LIFE. BAD-ASS FOR HIRE.
howdy, from the east coast!
mad gratitude
yesterday, i spent the day acting all surly (and a little tipsy) on the set of cbs’s new show, mad love. sweet people, all of em. watch it this fall!
did you know there is a national pancake day? yup. look the commercial in a month or two!

you can be awesome too…take an awesome picture of yourself with my awesome picture, then friend me & post it on facebook. awesomeness for everyone.

the first version of onstar is live. shade your eyes - my brilliance is blinding.
oh, joyous joy!
we had the first reading of my Big Secret Project yesterday and it was wonderful. my core group of actors are fantastic and i got some highly useful feedback. i’m hoping, within the next couple of weeks, we’ll have preliminary promotional work complete and will be able to introduce you to it…a bit.
…and then you can help me help the world by bringing this to fruition :)
for the next few days, i’m in the beautiful san francisco/petaluma area shooting an onstar commercial. this is the view from set.
life is so hard.
