SWAK

Hmm. This seems a bit futile. It has been 8 incredible months since I've managed to post on here, and after a while, it just seems like it's not worth it. Let's start slow, shall we? I actually wrote most of this months ago, when I was in the play Thoroughly Modern Millie while balancing my job on Bolden!...so pretend it's July as you read on, and I'll add more current adventures soon:



Hollywood's gotten to me. I'm not quite sure when it happened, or why, but this past weekend, I realized it was true....I've become a kisser. Now, don't put on your shocked face yet - I am far from planting one on the lips of everyone I meet - but since coming to Wilmington in April and finding myself among a mixture of local and LA film crews, and especially now that I am in a play with lots of, ahem, "theatre-type" fellas, I've found my cheeks bearing a rosy color originating not from anything Clinique has to offer, but from being the landing pad of the frequent pecks of my co-workers and friends. I used to think the whole thing was silly - a bit glamorous, yes, but I'm not European, sophisticated, or coordinated when it comes to casual physical affection. A few months of innocent smooches, though, and I have a confession to make: I love it! There is a precious sweetness to the whole thing, and you can't help but feel just a little old Hollywood to boot. I'm still far away from the $35 body wash one friend uses, or swearing off processed foods and western medicine, but I am frivolously, unabashedly giving in to one slightly over-the-top "movie business" shtick. So watch out, world, I have an ample supply of lip balm. You better be ready - or buy yourself a hoodie and get used to wearing it up!
