Super Bowl Parties, My Muse and Writing

Watching:  Chuck (Season 4)  Eating: Fajitas and Margaritas   Reading: Fifth Grave Past the Light by Darynda Jones We were invited to a Super Bowl party by one of Emory's friends. Emory played pool and there was a lot to eat. Most everyone there seemed to be actors and actresses, but I met an actress who said her agent represented comedians. That's what I'm interested in going into, but I need so much training and I need a demo reel. The demo reel I have shows me really nervous and blowing my comedy routine.  We went to Ventura for President's Day.

I personally think that if you're going to show women naked, it'd be fun to throw in a few nude guys too 😉💖. There was a few scenes (few and far between and not very distinct like the women) that flashed across the screen.  Our new neighbor was around for about a day. He lived in a tent outside our apartment. Sue said that the city hands out tents to the wanderers. He screamed a lot. I was able to sleep through it, but it was harder for Emory...
