Mood: Tired

It's not that the last two days haven't been a blast - they have. And I'm sure tomorrow will; but having 4 hours of sleep one night and then 6 the next drains energy.

Being on 'Awkward' was loads of fun - it marked the first time of having to do a clothes change. Also, one of the hair artists (I'm not sure what they're called) came over and put a little braid in my hair just above my ear. I really really liked it... now I just have to figure out how to do that myself. I also haven't been on a high school campus since kind of ever.

Then, at the end of the day, Central Casting - which had been trying to get ahold of me for half the day - called me up and offered me a job for today (the day right after that one) and tomorrow. Today was the fitting - it's a pilot being done on the Queen Mary, set in the 1890's - and I'm to be a maid. Those clothes are heavy (and thank goodness I'm too small to fit in their corsets. I like breathing). There's a petticoat, a black skirt that goes over that (and given how much skirtage there is to the petticoat, I have to put it over my head to put it on), a small butt-bustle, a half-corset, a black buttoned-up ribbed shirt - all the way up to midway on my throat - and a white apron. The end result is, even without the full corset, I've got good posture, I walk a bit differently than normal, and I can't lower my neck - the shirt gets in the way. But the whole thing is awesome. Tomorrow, I'll be wearing the whole kit and caboodle all day :).

Acting Job!

I got a job!!!

Extras job, through Central Casting. I've been calling both Jeff Olan (another extras casting group I'm signed up with - have I mentioned them?) and Central Casting in the last week to listen to the recordings for any jobs, there was one on Central Casting, I called the number, and got the job! Squee! It's in Van Nuys for a show called 'Awkward'... I've never heard of it before. I'm being a high school student. So I just spent the last hour looking for the appropriate clothes (most the sweaters in the house are black and white... exactly what they don't want), ironed a few shirts, de-furred everything, and hung them all in a room with no cats. At the moment. They were in there, so I'll probably have to de-fur again in the morning.

My call time is at 6:30 tomorrow morning, and fortunately I live only just over an hour away from Van Nuys. So I don't have to wake up too absurdly early.

:) So excited!
