Reality Shows and Costco

I was training a client today in the gym and someone came up to me and said "I saw you on TV last night." I was surprised since my L.A., spot isn't running. It was the Gene Simmons Family Jewels show that I had shot last year. I am just happy that I made the cut, even though I was only on camera for about 7-seconds! My older son said "cool, mom, is that it" and my younger one just noticed how much shorter I was than Shannon. So much for impressing my kids. Good thing, really, since that kind of stuff shouldn't be that important. Want to impress your kids? Bring home lots of snacks from Costco. I did that tonight and now, I'm way cool! Much cooler than a one-and-a-half-second clip on a national promo for Ugly Betty on ABC TV or a seven-second-clip on a national reality show on A&E. No comparison...now, that's reality...All good and very quite theses days. Had an audition for a credit repair spot. The director trusted me with the "hardest prompter read" so I felt pretty good about that. Had a terrific time hosting the radio show I do with Blake Aaron last Thursday afternoon. He had a gig so I filled in by myself. My in-studio guest was Steve Oliver and he so cool and hip. More on that later. Done with audio books. Hangin' in my closet talking to a mic (by myself) for two hours a day just doesn't float my boat. Well, now I know. Heading to the Queen Mary with the kids tomorrow and hoping that the boys can all "just get along" for the day! It's so beautiful in Southern Cal right now, hope you have an abundance of beauty in your lives, too!
