Back From the Dead

Okay, not really. Just haven't been around for a while. Interesting thing when you absolutely have to make some money and everything else stops being a priority (with the exception of your family and your health...and, a nice glass of wine once in a while.) The good news is, I have been incredibly booked with personal training clients and really enjoying my time with all of them. Have I been on some auditions? Yes, a few here and there, but haven't been able to get to all the L.A., castings. Darn it. Really miss that drive. I was up off Santa Monica Blvd., last week, though. Paired up with "my husband" in a Dell Computer audition. We were supposed to be driving in a van and I was supposed to pass my laptop to my son in the back seat. Funny thing when you don't pay attention to directions. I forgot and proceeded to get up (out of my seat in the van that my husband was driving) and walk behind my seat to place the laptop down (on the box behind me). That resulted in a polite, "Okay, let's do that again. You can't get up, you're in a van driving along the countryside." What? I get up and walk around all the time on our road trips...shit...such a simple direction, but my mind was on other things, like the client I had to cancel to do this 10-minute audition and getting back to the OC in time to pick up my kids from school. At least my actor-husband messed up, too. Other good news, my radio show is doing really well. Check us out: The Blake Aaron Radio Show-Thursdays, live, 3-6p/PST on 88.5/KSBR and streamed on ksbr.net. We are in the process of syndicating so I will keep you posted on our progress. The BA Show is a 3-hour artist interview program with live jamming between the star of the show, jazz guitarist Blake Aaron and our guests. I'm a co-host - sort of a clean version of Robin Quivers! Overall, my life...all good...no swine flu, yet. And, I'll be back more often. In the mean time, get your holiday shopping done early so you can actually enjoy the season and give yourselves a 7:30p cut-off time for eating until Dec. 30th and you'll save yourselves a ton of calories! NEW PODCAST POSTED for more ideas. Check out my link! Cheers!
