Not-So-Weekly Update 7/1/22

Jul 01, 2022

Hey gang! Busy bee, so I'll keep this short. Things are hectic but good. When I'm not in private appointments with agents or casting directors, I'm working on podcasts for Simpler Media, Empty Set Entertainment, or Tabula Rasa, B!tches. Hayden got an impromptu promotion, and his little brother moved in. Hazel is thrilled.

Suffice it to say; the house is a mess.

BUT I did clear out a lot of stuff for a yard sale, so my office is a lot less cluttered and more organized. And we had friends over to hang out before they moved, so I did vacuum up the Hazel fur tumbleweeds. Thank goodness I have a lot of underwear cause laundry hasn't been done in ages.

The agent meetings are going well. I feel confident in my scene and am happy with my 60-second brag for the panels. It's no surprise I've kept my fun spending down since there's not much left over after all the appointments and bills. The retail devil tempts me daily with Colourpop mystery boxes and Sailor Moon Vans, but I remain strong. So far.

My local barista even commented that I hadn't been around in a while. Shorter walks skipping the daily coffee means a few more bucks in my pockets and a little more time for other things. Similar sacrifice with my workouts. If you follow my stories on Instagram, you'll have noticed far fewer sweaty selfies. Nannying, man. It's sucked up two days out of the week. And now I've been out of it so long it's even harder to power through a workout. huff

I'll get back to it. I will. Not giving up, just...resetting.

Hoping to make some time to get out on my cute new rollerskates.

It's been a stressful time and will likely continue to be so. I get moments. A few episodes of something with Hayden here. A new art acquisition there.

I mean, what choice do I have? Give up? Well, no, I can't do that. So here I am.

I have momentum. No doubt. I can tell I'm actually as busy as I feel because the silly, little things are being skipped, unimportant things like updating my whiteboard calendar and felt letter board. They're cute, but it's not worth the 10-15 minutes out of my day.

What I really feel bad about not making time for is a new Black Cat home shoot. I need it. My pictures and reels are getting stale, and the likes/views reflect it. It just takes soooo much time and energy, and if I shoot anything now, it will come out in the pictures and videos. Frankly, it came out in the last shoot I did.

I'll add it to the list of things I'll hopefully have time for now that nannying is over.

In reality? Not like. I'll have to make up that weekly $300 somewhere. Live murder mysteries, maybe? Maybe.

Well, pitter patter. Rest fo the day's calling, and there's chore'n to do.

Last Movie I Watched: some scary movie on Prime

Currently Binging/Watching: Shoresy, One Piece, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Ms. Marvel
