Craaaap!!! I lost my purple clear folder! It had my timecard in it. Grrr...I will probably have to get that re-done. I have my copy of it...maybe I can trace it and no one will notice. Alright Viv...calm down...
I think I might have left it at the Big Little Theatre. Otherwise, who would steal such a thing??? I mean it's available at Staples for crying out loud!
I've got to stop having these long nights where I get to bed at 1am. It's really tough when you're at work and your eyes are rolling backwards because your body wants to sleep.

What do you mean you can't tell if it's a sinus infection or not?
So the doctor at Roosevelt Hospital shined a light into my nose and still wasn't able to tell me whether I had a sinus infection or not. I mean it's weird, but the swelling went down and I don't look like I had a stroke on the right side of my face anymore, but it still was painful when I pressed down. I went to the dentist, they took an x-ray. They said it wasn't a cavity. If the pain is still here and it hasn't gotten better, the doctor will order a cat scan. Can you imagine how expensive that is???
I'm thinking of going back to work at Barnes and Noble just for the sake of having health insurance again. I could work there part-time and still be able to take care of myself for a minimal cost. That just means I will have to work 7 days a week, but....health insurance!!!! There is a Barnes and Noble in Park Slope where I live so I'm thinknig of working there. Maybe I can work in the Cafe again.
I am very wary of doing this play of mine that I have just been cast. The director/producer says that if I don't bring in people to see it, he will cancel it that very night. Sounds sketchy...but the company seem legit. I think he may just be doing it to make money for himself and that he's hiring just anyone who walks in. My roommate, Morgan, brought up the point that he may not have been casting good actors, just anyone who wanted to act. There are too many scam artists out here and I'm sick of it. I recognise most scam artists, but those who don't ask for money from you, I figured it's better right? Is that really true? And I have no one I trust to go to for this.

Sinusitis
Eughh....this is the weirdest sinus infection I have to date. The last time I had a sinus infection, I was 12 and it was all over my cheeks. Left and right. It was soo bad that I couldn't even sleep at night. The pain....the swelling....the post nasal drip. Ewww...
Well this time it's a little different. I think it was caused by my cold and the fact that I had an infected tooth that was removed. It's in the same location. Well, it's right between my right nostril and my cheekbone. It's all swollen and very painful. It only hurts when I smile. :-( The dentist took an x-ray of my teeth and said that I didnt' have any bad ones. The symptoms all point to it being a sinus infection. This sucks big time. Well, I guess it was going to happen since it's been 2 years being out of college and having only had 1 instance where I got health insurance. Maybe I could go to work at Barnes and Noble in Park Slope during the weekends only to get health insurance. I don't have anything to do during the weekends anyway.
But the good news here is that I have been called back from one of my auditions. Yea! I was at the Big Little Theatre and the director wanted me to come back the day after. He wants me to write a few lines for the monologue. Yeah, it's weird and I don't know why. But that's what I'm going to do and he said he'd work with me on it. :-\
The second is for a New York Film Academy Short Film. I'm going to play The Nurse. It's going to be silly madness in this video. It's called "Pregnancy Surprise".
I told my father about this and he had only good things to say to me. He said that it was great news and that he knew I would succeed and that he had confidence in me. His words right there mean more to me than anything I've ever gotten from him. This will definitely be enough to fuel my own confidence when going out to audition and trying to get jobs.
That was my weekend. Oh, and watched Pan's Labyrinth this weekend. In fact, it was on Saturday that I watched it and right in the middle of the movie that's when my sinus infection flared up and I almost passed out from the pain. Never a dull moment in this girl's life. One thing after another. The movie really scared me and yet touched me at the same time. Scary and Sad. I have to say that there is one scene where I think it was just thrown in there for the sake of seeing a monster come to life. It was really unnecessary. I did think the action sequences were done very well. I really shuddered when I saw them shooting people in the head with guns and the blade scene.

Finished Wrapping
So the movie has wrapped. I'm working at a national legal firm as a temp for the time being. I had trouble getting into the office today. I get a call from a former employer asking if I can work today and of course I can't because I'm in the temp office already. I feel like I'm behind bars. Why am I a slave to money? I wish I wasn't dependent on money. I wish I was living in the East Village in the 70s because you could work for spit at that time.
So I'm at Osric's magic eight ball online. I asked the question of whether The Guitar will fair well and the answer I received was: "Don't count on it." Yikes...well especially since I didn't receive the last 2 week's pay while I was there. This is ridiculous.
I need to get back into working in the entertainment industry. FAST...but Backstage is being a bitch. 6 months ago I tried to subscribe online and it gave me an internal 500 error. Now I'm just stuck using Mandy and Playbill. At least for the time being. Until they respond to my email and my voicemail. *sigh*
That's pretty much all I can do. *sigh* *sigh* *sigh*
