Funny how this business goes! Just when I was bitching and moaning about things not happening last month, here I am in a new month shooting my first lead role in a SAG indie! It’s only a short film, but it’s big budget and the other leads are TV/movie actors of some renown so it’s been very exciting. I even had to back out of one of my theater gigs to do this one, as it will likely go to film festivals and all of that. The writer/director’s last film went to festivals and even got bought and distributed, so hooray for possibilities!
As I write this, I’m on the bus to a final callback for another regional theater gig to fill my June/July slot, and then I’ve still got that other regional gig (in which I have the starring role!) in August! Wowza.
Career-wise, the manager is great; still meeting with many legit agents on my own but feeling less and less “in need” of one; now I’m more waiting for the right fit to come along. The manager has also set up a couple of meetings for me upcoming with legit and commercial agents, so maybe one of those will work out.
Health-wise, making it to the gym a couple of times a week, starting to get some pecs, and trying to add in some more cardio to get the abs to match. Have been making it to dance class about once a week, which is not enough but I’m enjoying it and hoping to slowly ramp up. I had to let the martial arts slide, but maybe I’ll check it out again when I have some time, along with acrobatics/tumbling which is also on my to-do list.
Finally, personal life: unfortunately things fell through with funny guy I had started dating last month. Things were going fine, nice and casual, then suddenly he disappeared. Best I can guess is that an ex resurfaced or something. Been going on a few dates, but not finding much time to get serious with anyone anyway, so I guess it’s all for the best!
Budget memo: $-425. Boo. 
But I do have lots of money coming in from print jobs and this film too so I should be good again next month!)
