I promised a handful of people I’d eventually post this. Here it is: Chapter 2 - The Color Black I woke up in a gurney on the sidewalk nearest the wreckage. The rain had stopped. There were two am...
Still alive. And pursuing. Mostly pursuing.
Alternative blog entry titles: “I’m On A Plane, Motherf*cker (Don’t You Ever Forget)”, “Air Force Bro”, “The Aviator (Sunglasses)”, “Top Gun: The Virgin America Chronicles”. But, alas, simplicity sel...
I’ve been skimping you on the blog posts, and my fingers ache with regret. I’m extending an olive branch, then, by offering you the first chapter in a novel that I’ve written and am currently editing...
The prettiest girls in Hollywood use the cardio equipment that faces the full-wall mirror. Not clever; true.
I’ve been remiss in updating my blog. Which results in less of you caring. Which results in my not being motivated to update my blog. You see that vicious cycle we created there? Life is full of ...
If you ever need a peptalk, Nature gives them best. A view to bring you back; to motivate you to rule the world; to inspire you to chase a dream.
I figured that since acting is what I’m out here to do, it would make sense to let everyone know what’s going on in that regard. When I got out here, the first order of business was getting my new ...
I’ve got plans to go out tonight, but I got a random and much appreciated invite to go to the Magic Castle Club for dinner with some friends from my office back in Ft. Lauderdale. The Magic Castle is...
Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros Circle Time MY NEW OUTLOOK I’m making a concentrated effort to say “yes” more often. Once you get me out and exploring, I’m pretty much DTR (down to ride). If you...
Jimmy Buffett concert. Details tomorrow. But envy me.
My lovely ex-girlfriend and current-closefriend Kira set it up so that I could attend the first Los Angeles screening of the independent film “Trophy Kids”, a movie about Generation Y’s wholehearted ...

They say that you learn something new every day. Well today, I learned that my foot is almost exactly the same size as Sean Connery’s, except for that he has a longer big toe. I always assumed I cou...
I’m in perpetual tourist mode. I’m told this will subside, and I agree — it just might take a handful of years. This industry makes me six-year-old-with-a-pony giddy. But while running in Runyon Cany...
I suppose this stuff will eventually stop being cool to me, but I still get all tingly inside when I walk by these places. It’s probably what love feels like. This is Grauman’s Chinese Theatre. It’s ...
Younger Film & Television Commercial General Film & Television I’ll get better at updating this bad boy as I settle down here in Hollywood. I promise. I moved into my new apartment last Saturday. I...
With a little urging from a few friends, I think I’m going to try to maintain this blog. It’s fun. So I worked a little HTML magic — don’t call me a nerd — and have made it possible to post commen...
I’ve been in Los Angeles for a week now, but I’ve got to say it feels like longer. I’ve had to tie up some loose ends (cancel my Boca gym membership, find a lawyer to fight my TX speeding ticket, get...
I have arrived in Los Angeles (technically Pasadena), California alive and well and exhausted. I’m staying with my friend Rebecca (so generous!) for the next two weeks here in Pasadena before I find ...
I have arrived in Pasadena, CA! Detailed update later. Thank God I’m alive and here!
Aaaand I’m in California. The hairs on the back of my neck paid salute when I crossed the state border. Before this, it just felt like an endless drive. Now, it’s starting to feel real. Wow. That’s a...
With less than 5 hours (and less than 300 miles) to go, I’m preparing my Terminator look for Cali.
The end is near! It’s like the apocalypse of my road trip. And I’m totally ready. I’m so close I can almost smell the starlets, corruption, and studio cash — also known as the scent of Ari Gold’s col...

The jury is back — and bloated — and the verdict is: amazingly delicious. Hype now understood. Back to trying not to fall into hibernation/a coma.
I’ve stopped off for a quick bite at In-N-Out Burger — and I’ve been looking forward to this for months. Everyone I know who lives in or has visited Cali raves about this place. I tried it once in Ve...
Officially in Arizona. Home of two of this country’s oldest natural wonders: the Grand Canyon and John McCain.
I’m so very tempted to pull off the interstate and check out THE THING. I’ve been waiting for one of these oddball, roadside attractions, and here’s my first opportunity. I’m likely to ignore the tug...
God really stepped up his desert landscaping game the farther west you get. Good work, big guy. Are you also responsible for the Dairy Queen ads because those things are annoying?
