Bathroom. Friesan. Violin. Iron Man. Mystery.

Okay here we go!

The biggest news is that I moved! Let me tell you a tale illustrating how lucky I am.

Last Friday, we had a pizza party at The Young and the Restless so I went to pick up the pizzas with the receptionist, with whom I am in love essentially. During our walk, she asked me what I was going to be doing this weekend and I replied drearily that I had to move and would be looking at apartments the whole time. So she told me that she and the sweetener at Y&R (engaged) have a second house in which his mother lives and they like to rent out the other room.

Features:

-Own bedroom and bathroom-- and this is the most beautiful bathroom in the world, honestly!

-Queen sized bed, dresser, lights, ceiling fan

-Personal entrance

-$750 per month with no extras for utilities or parking!

-drive through Baskin Robins right on the corner (pro and con really...)

-Month to month so I can leave whenever but am never forced to leave!

-TWO DOGS! Both part chihuahua. CRAAAZY friendly.

-TWO HORSES!

What?! Horses?

YEAH! HORSES!

It's the cleanest stable in the whole world too! And they are super nice and one of them is a really big show horse (Friesian stallion) and does all of these tricks (she told me the breed of the other one several times and I feel like my brain, every time, was like "don't even TRY to remember that. It's not happening.").

Plus there are pictures of horses and horse memorabilia EVERYWHERE. Crazy awesome. Plus there is a little patio outside with a table and chairs so you can just sit out there and listen to the radio that plays on the stereo outside and read and watch the horses.

BUT THERE'S MORE!!

The lady that I'm living with was/is a hugely successful violinist. When I moved in, we listened to the radio sporadically while I was there, and TWICE she was like "oh, this is me on the violin!"

!!!!

She played for Barry White, Smokey Robinson, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley... that's all I know. But WOW! If you walk into her (our!) house though, you would NEVER know. All you would know is that she loves horses!

My last day of CBS was yesterday. I kind of felt like it was the perfect last day because it was kind of a greatest hits day. Let me explain.

One of my favorite things is when the actors know my name (vanity), but really it has only happened 3 times. But yesterday Peter Bergman saw me while in hair and makeup and said hi to me with my name. I told him that I'm finished with college and he congratulated me heartily. I love him so much!

I rode the elevator with the really objectively attractive guy. This time I did NOT forget to press the button and was much more at ease with myself.

Also, there was this mystery that I've been wondering about basically since I got there, but it isn't a mystery that I could appropriately ask about. But miraculously it came up and it turns out I was right about the mystery. (Sorry to be mysterious about the mystery. It isn't that cool but, if it's inappropriate to ask, it's probably inappropriate to post)

Lastly, about 3 or 4 scripts ago, they left my favorite story line hanging, so I was on the edge of my seat all day waiting for the next script to come out. It came out right when I could home, but I stayed an extra half hour to read it, obviously. It was PRETTY satisfying, but of course, what kind of strategy would the show have if it made a completely satisfying episode?

I can't even BELIEVE I have to wait until June 15 until I can know what happens next on the show!! Not cool. I feel like they are going to find me in a week, scratching at the doors begging to see at least the synopsis of what has been happening.

Now, the COOOOLEST parts of my life are with Present Pictures, but I can't post them here. Look at how hard I brag! I'm sorry but I gotta do it. Also, it a little bit sucks because pretty soon Present Pictures is going to be my WHOLE LIFE and I won't be able to write about any of it. There may be an influx of posts about what I ate that day. Hard to say.

ALMOST OFFICIALLY DONE! I have one or two more things to write, but my last class was on Thursday and I haven't even really reflected on that fact yet. Next time I get an hour to stare into space and think, that is going to be my first topic to address.

PUUUUh-UUUUUUMPED about Iron Man 2!!!! I am almost positive I am going to order tickets for opening night. The question is whether 9:30pm is too early-- will I be rushing from work? I just don't know how late I'm staying anymore. The next time is 12:30am, but I'm not sure if I'll be too sleepy. Probs not. WHOOOOOO!!! Advertising WORKS! People say I'm graduating, it just slides by my radar. People say Iron Man 2 is coming out THIS FRIDAY and my stomach does a flip and I try to suppress a grin.

Claire did a great review of Kick-Ass, which was particularly enlightening as I had no IDEA what this movie was about, apparently. Check it out if you're so inclined.

LAST THING-- I am getting all of this glorious information about so many Chords coming out to California and it is making my LIFE! My roommates leave tomorrow and then I'm going to have zero friends. Damnit! I keep starting over and over and over again with friends. Stupid nomadic life. Even though this (coming to LA) was probably one of my top 3 best decisions yet.
