August?

Wow. Is it really August already? Holy cow, this year has flown by. (I know, I know... people always say that sort of thing. Blah blah blah.)

Found this cute thing on Toothpaste for Dinner. Hee. Cute.

Casting is almost finished on Three Poems. Whew! Also almost finished with No Mercy casting. Name offers are all that's left on that one, really. And I think we're almost finished with The Masquerade too. Woo! It's been an exhausting few weeks, doing all of these projects at once. Definitely ready to get back to the "calm" life of only working like a small Jamaican family.

I sometimes forget to notice that my life is very different than it was this time last year. I used to have to spend quite a bit of time introducing myself to agents and managers, giving an oral resumé before they'd even look at a project I was working on. Now I have coverage at all of the agencies and I get pitch calls at a surprising volume. And I know more about the industry than I did a year ago. Sometimes I forget to notice that and be grateful for all that I've learned. AND I need to remember that there will be that much MORE stuff I know next year that I don't know right now.

That's all pretty dang cool.

Thanks everyone, for playing CLIFF! It's fun, no?

ohmygod. it gets even better.

The thing WORKS. I left my cloth napkin in there, put on the timer - in 5 minutes the entire case is toasty warm (HOW MUCH would a home appliances store charge for this?)

HOT, FRESH pastries! Cha-CHING! I think I deserve my own HGTV show.

I'm getting really pissed off at this guy. I mean, if you TELL ME you'll read it over the weekend...that means you should have contacted me by now, right? I mean, this is kind of being rude, right?

I didn't want to but I *did* e-mail him today. I wish I had someone else in the wings whose work I was as familiar with..."It will all work out, Christy...breathe..."

"August is National Blame Your Problems on Someone Else Month" Wow! Do I know a few people who will be happy it's now August!!! ;) (Teeheehee. I know, I'm a stinka!)

Congrats on the wrap up of your banner month, babydoll! You are a rockstar! There's no doubt about that!

I'm just gettin' started and having sooo so so much fun casting this latest movie!

Cocktails soon? Laura has been hinting to some Tana Flu symptoms coming on and hitting hard about the 15th. You up for it?

LOVE you, sis! XXOO
