Flying Cars and the Return of the Zit
Always happy to get castings so I have to start off by NOT whining about my drive to Sherman Oaks, today, although I would have given my right arm for a car with wings. I swear - I'm done complaining about my drive. Just had to mention that I envisioned a bat mobile or jet fueled hydraulic pumps sprouting out of the sides of my Honda mini-van, so I could fly away over all the nasty, backed-up traffic on the Ventura Highway...okay, onto the real stuff...my chin zit showed up again. Weird, ya know, since today's audition for a VERY BIG JOB was an infomercial for a vacuum cleaner...didn't I deal with this same zit during my filming for the Mop & Go infomercial? Hmmm, what is going on here? OMG, it will become my personal brand...the gal with the zit on her chin. Lovely. Anyway, the casting agency probably saw about 20-25 women for this, but as they say, you have to swing the bat to get a home run...or, something like that! It's so crazy, this biz, and it's sort of like gambling or childbirth - bare with me, I've done both. You take chances and spend money on it (gas, your time, wardrobe, headshots, etc.) and hope for a few small pay-offs here and there and a few big ones, too! Or, childbirth. Painful and a bit scary, but you forget about it right away, especially if you book a job - even a small one. Don't you all want to jump into this biz, now!? Yeah, right. Stick to Vegas and c-sections! Shalom and Peace on this upcoming Easter weekend! (BTW, I did book a testimonial job for an ad agency. Thank Yooouuu! The pain is gone already!)
