Asleep At The Wheel
Driving home tonight, I was thinking about my sleepy driving habits. I compiled a list in my head. Here it is:
Top 5 Sleepiest Drives Of 2008 (In Chronilogical Order):
March - Passenger - Drive to and from Hemet. More so the drive back. - About 11pm to 5pm the following day - Sleepiness: 10/10 (I did actually sleep for a lot of it)
April - Co-pilot - Drive to San Jose to take the WST - About...
After Day One
4 hours of sleep, 1.5 hours of driving, 13 hours of shooting, 2 hours of driving back, 1 hour of hanging out on the couch. That basically chronicles my last 21.5 hours.
Now we go to Lyon’s because I hunger. Greatly.
Big things coming.
On The Set
Can’t talk. Freeeeezing. Sleepy. Again, freezing. No end in sight.
If you love me you will text me to keep me entertained during these stints of silence.
Been Awake And Driving
Awake: Two hours.
Driving: One and a half hours.
Currently: Sitting in my car in the parking lot of a McDonald’s in San Jose eating breakfast.
Have a feeling it’s going to be a long day.
New Phone
After an hour of fighting with the people at Cingular, I have a new iPhone. It’s amazing.
Christmas Has Begun!
Para mi! Last night I exchanged gifts with Cam & Jeff. Very good times. They seem to know me very well.
Tonight Cliff and I are going to go get my present from him. iPhone! He told me he is afraid I am going to become engrossed and obsessed. I guaranteed it.
Tomorrow, being Christmas Eve, means Christmas at Cliff’s mom’s in the morning where I am getting 3 shirts that I...
Funny Boyfriend
We are laying in bed. I am on the verge of falling asleep. He is trying very hard to convince me not to sleep. I am trying to convince him to sleep too. But he tells me that he can’t take naps. He can’t sleep during the day. Just can’t.
That was at about 400PM. He has been asleep ever since. It’s not 645PM. Sleepy boyfriend.
On call for jury duty. Which means I...
Christmas Shopping: Complete
Finished all my Christmas shopping today. Spent the day out with Cam, Kayce and Jeff. Went to Old Sac and Arden mostly, along with a couple other places. I am happy with my purchases.
Tomorrow my mom told me she may make me hash browns. Which is amazing because she makes the best of all time. I also need to get my nails done because it’s been over a month since the last time and they...
Going Shopping!
Cam and I are about to go out and finish our Christmas shopping for the year.
I woke up with the biggest pimple that has ever bought property on my face. I am still cringing just thinking about it.
It has to be, at most, 40 degrees in this house. Not really exaggerating. But I slept under 3 blankets. So that was niiiiiiiiiiiiiice.
This is the earliest I have been awake in a very long time.
...
Since I Have Been Home
I have slept more than I have been awake. I think I might be dying. What’s wrong with me. I had breakfast today at 5pm because I woke up at about 1pm.
Dyed my hair back today. Kind of effed it up. Left a big blonde patch in the back. It will have to do, I suppose.
Christmas is coming up pretty soon. Which also means shooting is coming up soon. My perfectly good Winter break cut...
Glad To Be Home
Though it may be short lived. Nonetheless, it’s been good so far. I may be going back to San Jose sooner than I had expected to work on a feature film. The position is tentative still.
Been spending lots of time in Sac. Almost done Christmas shopping. Cliff and I are going to watch some cool (hopefully) movies tonight. That hopefully means being warm.
As I write this I am sitting on...
It's Settled
I’m out.

What the hell?
Neighbor Boys
They are playing music right now at, approximately, 130 dB. You sound geeks know what I’m talking about.
Film Festival
Tomorrow is our film festival. I am really excited. I have gotten to see a couple of the films that I am excited for others to see, but I have heard of a couple more that I am really eager to see. Also, I get to see people that I am really looking forward to seeing.
After that, I am going back home. I don’t know yet for how long though.
Things to do tomorrow before film festival:
-...
Sicky
I am sick. And for whatever reason, no matter what kind of sick I am, it always affects my sinuses. So I always believe I have a sinus infection as opposed to a normal cold. I think that began after the nose piercing. But it could have been going on long before that. As I sit here the whole right side of my face is burning and achy and has a lot of pressure going on.
Tonight I did something...
Yep, I'm Sick
“But you know what they say, ‘The show must go on’. And in [Amy’s] world, the show never stops.”
You guys who read this will get that on Thursday. =)
But seriously, I have a cold of sorts. My nose is all gross and sneezy and my throat is scratchy and coughy.
My tummy is growling. I am debating whether or not I should wait an hour to go get Chipotle or not. I...
Next Semester
I think next semester I am going to opt to fork out the $52 extra for the high speed internet. Simply because of Netflix. Without it I have to wait for the damn thing to buffer about every 10 minutes. It would also just in general make things load a lot faster. And I have a need for speed.
Christmas Gifts
People I have already acquired gifts for:
- Cam (partially) - Jeff - Dad & Tiff - Erica (also partially) - Nicole - Julie - Grandma
People I still need to acquire gifts for:
- Cliff - Mom - Other Grandma - Matt - Kate - Kayce - Hagen & Kegan - Syd - Cliff’s parents? - One more thing for Erica and Cam
Things I Want To/Must Do Today:
- More Christmas shopping. Most likely Target, B&N, etc. - Clean the living room of this apartment. - Watch another movie. - Make some of that salmon I bought Friday. I am thinking pasta with the garlic one. Mmmmm… - Wrap presents.
I just work up to my mom calling to ask me about some film. Apparently, she found some film on our kitchen table and used it despite it not having any...
The Dead Girl
Just got done watching a movie thanks to Instant Watch on Netflix. Besides the fact the the quality was very low and it had to take a 3-8 minute break every 7-10 minutes to buffer, it was alright. I watched a movie called The Dead Girl. I would have to say the highlight of the movie was James Franco. Now, I am not normally one of those girls who swoons over him, but he had this nerdy sort of...
Surprise Visit
Cliff came to visit me tonight! Total surprise. Very good surprise.
Cookies!
Cori and I made oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. And they were worth getting off my ass. Because they are awesome. Now I can sleep well.
Christmas In The Park
Cori and I went to Christmas in the Park tonight. We got free passes to go ice skating. So we went ice skating, where I was quickly reminded that I am horrible at ice skating. It was basically 45 or so minutes of Cori pulling me around the rink while I was hunched over, ankles wobbling, reaching for the wall. Despite that, it was really fun. The guy who gave us the free passes, one of the...
Farmer's Market!
Got some strawberries, apples and salmon! Garlic salmon and pepper salmon. Already cooked and vacuum sealed. I think I might make some pasta tonight to put it over… Mmmmm…
Things I Hope To Accomplish Today-Monday
- Finish editing Sam’s movie. It’s due today. I think all it needs are titles & credits though. - Go to the Farmer’s market. Which is the first thing on the agenda since it’s going on right now. - Christmas shopping at Santana Row and the Valley Fair mall. - Watch a few movies thanks to Netflix now making Instant Watch Mac capable. - Mount my prints for photo. -...
Netflix
I can now watch movies on my Mac. Life is gooooood.
Our Toilet
Is clogged.
Meet Me In Montauk
Leave just as you came (without a sound) Nothing to ruffle your ends I've been wandering around Making up movies in my head So we say don't let it go let me try and pull out pride I already forget how I used to feel about you Leave as fast you came, no invitation Nowhere to go from here I've been wandering around Wondering how I got so, got so, so fucking boring All the sudden, so fucking...
The Cookies I Just Made
They are absolutely delectable. And I really needed them. I am not feeling too great…
Gross Dishes
I just cleaned the most disgusting sink full of dishes of all time. The sink was FULL of water. There was guacamole so old Sam thought it was chicken. I seriously almost threw up.
9:00AM
I couldn’t even bring myself to wake up early enough to go to a seminar this morning at 900AM that I really wanted to go to. Next semester I have class at 800AM twice a week. Will I be able to wake up for that?
Consoling An Atheist
When someone comes to me about someone close to them dying, I find it really difficult to console them. I always just attributed it to the idea that I was just not a very comforting person. Thinking about it more tonight, when such a situation came up, I have come to realize that it’s probably more likely due to the fact that I am atheist. It makes it even tougher when the other person is...
