In NYC

  I made it to city number one! I arrived in New York City three days ago. My apartment in Brooklyn is fantastic! Its huge, and my roommate is cool. Yesterday I took the subway into midtown Manhattan (20 minutes away) and walked around all day. I started at Grand Central, then Times Square, ate some pizza,  walked up 5th avenue to Rockefeller Plaza with the christmas tree and ice skating rink then to the flagship Apple store, strolled the "Children's District" of Central Park, walked back down Broadway to Times Square and tried to get cheap tickets for Wicked (no dice), had some amazing Thai jungle curry, then I took the subway home. It was great! although a tad cold... The hot curry really helped at the end.

  Today I am taking it easy, hanging out, maybe a bit of shopping here in Brooklyn. I really want to get into working, but I have to wait for one of my contacts to email me with a shoot for me to work on. I'm not worried about getting on at least one set, but I'm kind of bored waiting, you know? Every morning I wake up and check my email, its a good motivator to get out of bed. I'll post something as soon as I get a call :)

  Today I woke up to snow falling, and look at that, its still falling. Looks like about an inch so far (of the predicted 4-7). Hopefully it won't hinder any productions I might work on, but then again coming from Colorado, I know how to deal with snow. Maybe that will make me more hirable? I sure hope so.

Happy belated New Years everyone, make 2011 something worth talking about. I know I will!
