Well here's why. I work like a dog for two awesome places. I'm teaching karate to kids which is AWESOME. And of course I am logging at night which is also good. However that means I work a combined estimated approx. around together 15 hours a day. Woo! I work a lot in another words. Anyway let me give you the skinny, then maybe we can chew the fat... get it? Last I left you with that cliff hanger of apt searching and some auditions... I sadly didn't get that part, but I did get a very nice email from the dir, which is a rare thing for me coming from NYC. I did luckily get an apt. A very nice roomy apt that is AWESOME. It is in a good neighborhood in Hollywood. Near stuff, and far away from stuff... turns out you can't live next to everything. Life has been good... though I do get really tired of all the sun, I know I know, LA... sun they're like sisters... or brothers... siblings? Anyway I just would love a cloud. So to recap so far.... Jobs.... Apt.... clouds... got it? Good, moving on. Next I've teamed back up with an old director of mine, one Mr. Josh Dobson, director of "Running Down West." Which you can see some clips here. Of course I recommend you looking around his site and seeing what's going on with him, he's cool and talented. So he and I and one Michael T Vollman are shooting a series of short films as a sort of workshop thing. It's a great way to keep the tool sharp... and you never know what great ideas come to you and when. Yep. Other news... I just recently got cast in a film called "The Psychedelic Hamster." Directed by Greg Hirsh, we are going to production later this month. I'm really looking forward to doing it. Should be a lot of fun, the script is oh so delicious and the character I am playing is going to be... well, let's just say I haven't played one like him before. I'm excited. I'll do my best to keep better tabs on the career stuff going, so just in case I don't get a chance to get back to the computer for a while I will tell you that I am meeting with someone from a company called Act Now. They introduce actors and casting directors... it's the way of the world out here. It should be a good meeting.... and the beginning of something. Other little things around the world are going on. I'll let you know if anything else is going on... I promise I'm sorry... I'll try better... I suck..... you're pretty though. Love. Daryl.
