Hello again. I've had a SERIOUS lack in time to get to a computer or even an opportunity to hit the library to update this or check most of my stuff, but I finally made it back:
I was on the Mentalist set for 3 days straight! It was so much fun. The air date for the episode of The Mentalist I'm on should be airing May 12th on CBS. Mark your calendars. :) I got to see people like Simon Baker, Robin Tunney, Tim Kang, Owain Yeoman, and Amanda Righetti. All four the main actors of the show. I love that show! I watched it back home all the time, when I still had cable, so it was kind of crazy to see these people in person. I was on set for 3 days straight, so I definitely have a good chance of some camera time. So don't forget to look out for that episode airing May 12th. If the date changes, I'll let you know ASAP! And just a reminder, May 11th on the CW will be the series premiere of "Lily", another show I was on. So back-to-back nights you'll get to see me on TV, hopefully. :) And for those of you who got to see it or didn't get to for that matter, I was on Desperate Housewives...briefly...on the April 19th episode. I was also on House this past Monday (April 27th). I was blurry in the majority of the shots, but you could definitely tell it was me. There were a couple times the camera panned by and you could see the scorer's table and I think I saw me pretty clear then, but I wasn't able to pause it and check. Maybe I'll look online for the episode.
So my cousin Adam came to visit me!! That was so much fun! I really hope he had a good time (even though he told me he did). Luckily I had James's vehicle for 90% of the time Adam was here, so I was able to take him to all the places I'm familiar with and then some. We went to Hollywood, Universal Studios, Ireland's, Burbank, Santa Monica Beach, anywhere I could think of to take him that I was familiar with. We took a tour of the Grauman's Chinese Theatre. I had never been in there, but it's the main location for big movie premieres. One of these days I'll go to a premiere, whether it be for my movie or someone else's...it doesn't matter to me. I'm just definitely going. It's such an awesome place. It's HUGE inside. We also went on a VIP tour of Warner Bros. Studio. We got to go on the set of Two and a Half Men. Unfortunately, we saw no celebs there. And now that I mention it, we weren't really successful in celebrity sightings. Kinda unfortunate, I wanted Adam to see some. Maybe next time. He got to meet all the cool people I hang with out here and we had a great time. It was unfortunate to drop him off at the airport, not gunna lie. Made me kind of sad. But he'll be visiting me again soon I hope. Maybe later in the year or something.
Well if most of you haven't heard, tomorrow night (Thursday) will be my last night I'll be living in the apartment I'm living in right now. Kelly and Amy are moving back to Indiana for 3-6 months or so. I can't afford the $1K/month rent on my own, otherwise I'd probably just stay in the 1 bedroom apartment. So I'm apartment shopping. It's looking like there's going to be at least 3 of us, so we're looking for a 3 bedroom minimum place, not too expensive of course...good luck with that, right? This past week or so has been super super stressful. I'm going to be staying at James's sister's house for a couple night this Friday and Saturday, and I might end up checking into a hotel for awhile. I need to keep looking for the best rates available on that till I actually find an apartment/house. All I ask of any of you is to keep me in your prayers on my quest to find a new place. Times have been stressful recently, stressful and frustrating. I'm learning all sorts of new things from people that I was completely unaware of, and that's not helping any situation. I know I'm being quite vague right now, but please just keep me in your prayers and let's all hope for the best. I will pull through this little speed bump of my life. Just like George Michael said: "Ya gotta have faith faith faith!" Yes, I DID just quote George Michael. Don't laugh at me. :)
I'm headed to the house of Sanford, Nora, Caitlin, and Heidi on Sunday for a BBQ. So that should be fun! I have a few things planned out for the next week or so. However, I'm a little concerned I may not be able to work much in the next week or so. I don't know A) how much access I'll have to a car and B) not sure of how much time I'll have with all the apartment/house hunting. Again, something I'll hope for the best on.
Until next time...

Lack of Blogging...
I apologize for the lack of blogging. I'm sure a lot of you are wanting to know what's new. Well this probably won't be TOO long, but here's an update:
I was on another Pilot called "Community". It stars Chevy Chase and Joel McHale. You should all recognize the name Chevy Chase. If you don't, you might know him from his birth name of Cornelius Crane Chase. No? Yeah, me niether. That really is his birth name though. He's probably best known as his role playing Clark Griswold in the famous National Lampoon's Vacation films. Joel McHale is the well-known host of "The Soup". This is an NBC pilot. Hopefully it'll all go over well and will be on air. Just look out for information on Community. I have no idea when it may air. I played a college student and did a lot of walking around in the background. Nothing too exciting.
I also just got booked today for tomorrow, and possibly Wednesday and Thursday for the popular CBS show titled "The Mentalist". I'll be playing part of the troubled youth. I have no idea how many of us there may be. We're going to be in a camping-style scene though. Say a prayer I get recalled for both Wednesday AND Thursday. That will be 3 strong days of work, aka money.
New news: Amy is moving back to Indiana for 3 months at the end of April. Kelly is moving out by the end of April and moving to who-knows-where. I will not be living in this apartment I'm in now at the end of the month. It's a little stressful. I'm looking for a new place. I hope I can find something before the beginning of May. So keep that in your prayers as well if you wouldn't mind.
Great news is that my cousin Adam will be out here on Friday to visit and spend about 8 or so days out here with me in LA! I can't wait!
I hope everyone had a WONDERFUL Easter weekend. I know I did. Eric's mom invited me to their house to have dinner with the family. So me, Eric, his mom, his sister and her boyfriend, and their grandma were all eating a wonderful Easter lunch filled with steak, turkey, ham, potatoes, deviled eggs, mac and cheese, rolls, etc. I never expected to be invited anywhere, especially for Eric's mom, who I had only met a couple times, to invite me for something as special as an Easter lunch. But I was very grateful and thankful. She's a very nice person, and we all had a wonderful time. After eating and talking and telling jokes, we played some Texas Hold 'Em which is the first time I've played in over 3 months. I came in 3rd, but pretty much gave in late in the game. I stupidly went all-in and hit NOTHING on the board. I was done for. Eric's mom sent me with some leftovers and desserts and we headed to our 2nd destination of the day. I met a few really cool people out here this past week. I met Nora Friday. I had already met her roommates Caitlin and Sanford a week or so before that. Well Friday night at the Easter celebration at The Liquid Zoo, we had a great time with the karaoke and the prize giveaway. Someone who won a bottle of champangne didn't want it so he gave it to me. I guess before they left, Nora and Caitlin told Sanford and Josh to invite Eric and me to their Easter festivities. We headed over there after Eric's mom's house and ate food, drank drinks, hunted for easter eggs...all 98 that Sanford hid...and met a lot of really cool people. Post egg hunting, we played Catch Phrase. Our way of playing was whoever lost, whoever it buzzed on, they had to wear the sombrero and pick a band/artist and everyone broke out into one of their songs, sometimes it was a bloody mess of songs all at once, and sometimes everyone started on the same one. Hilariously fun night. Oh, and one of the best things of the evening was when Paityn informed us that Josh had proposed to her Saturday night! And she said no!.....just kidding...of COURSE she said yes! She showed us the ring and was very happy. I, too, am happy for both of them. They're a great couple. And being Sunday, we of course headed to Karaoke later. Eric and I met up with Paityn there and Nora, Caitlin, and Sanford all showed up a bit later. Another fun, successful night of karaoke.
Nothing much else to report for now. I'm without internet in the apartment, and may be until I move to a new place, which means I'll have to keep coming to the library, where I am now, or using Eric for his internet, which I hate to keep asking him.
Well I hope this was a good update for you all! I miss you all!
Until next time...
