Update

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 ...

Acting Update

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 ...

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...

A Sighting!

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 ...

Comments!

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...

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...

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...

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...
