Long Time, No Post

So...I thought I was busy with work before - I was painfully mistaken. I have been working my little fanny off. I like it though. I'm learning a lot about trailers and the process. I feel like I'm actually working there and not just answering phones. This past week I got the opportunity to meet a real celebrity. Mark Ruffalo (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0749263/maindetails) is in one of the movies we're doing a trailer for. We wanted to see if we could get him to read the voice over for the beginning - and what do ya know...he wanted to! So we went over to a recording studio and had him read some lines and he LOVED our trailer. He liked it so much he actually gave me his e-mail address to send him the final version. Crazyness. That's what I love about this city...anything could happen. :)

28 days and counting!! I'm SO ready to head back east. It' time for a break...plus I sort of miss the seasons. I don't think it's been below 80 degrees out here yet. Today may be different, I don't know - haven't been out yet. I want the time to go by fast but at the same time, the two weeks I'm there is going to go by even faster! :( Plus I have a lot of knitting to do before I can come home...Christmas presents don't knit themselves!!!

Alright gotta get some coffee.
Love,
Tan

Good Morning!

Wow what a week/weekend! This past week was crazy at work - I think I say that all the time :) It's good though, it's making the days go by faster and the weekends all that much more appreciated. 49 Days and counting til it's time to come back east for Christmas!! YAY


I went to an LA Kings game on Thursday. One of my boss' friends called me up and said "Hey I've got two extra tickets to the game tonight, they're yours if you want them." and I said...HECK YES - He knows I'm from Buffalo and that us Buffalonians like our hockey as much as we like our Labatts! We had AMAZING seats...11th row up, on center ice. I've never been to a hockey game before and now I'm hooked, I'm already looking at prices for Sabres games when I'm home. :) Might be a bit pricey for me though...we'll see.

Friday was Halloween, so Happy Halloween to everyone. I didn't get too many pictures, as my digital camera is still non existent. But I was a Bond Girl. Not hard to do, just wear a tight dress and carry around a gun. Courtney is the one in ALL gold. She's the girl dipped in gold from a Bond movie. Jen's the other blond - she went as Edie Sedgwick (model for Andy Warhol) We had a blast at the party.


Saturday was Lindsay's birthday dinner. I (naturally) made the cake...and forgot to take a picture of it. I'm sure Lindsay has a picture somewhere of it. The group was some of her friends and work people. It was a good time. I took Jen and Courtney along. Jen was a trooper this weekend - she's not a big fan of social events...and she stuck with me Thursday (hockey game), Friday, and Saturday! So proud of my roomie :)

That's all for now!
