Lie in til 8.30 =)
Up, packed an out to enjoy my last slice of Southern hospitality before heading back to the West Coast. I went and had brekkie with P at Waffle House! I was told later that only tourists go to Waffle Houses as the locals know of stories of poor hygiene, creepy crawlies etc etc, but I have to tell you that the Pecan Waffle was bloody gorgeous! Very nice indeedy doody. Back to the Hotel and said bye to everyone before getting in the van to go to the airport. We had the most fabulous driver, Nat who was one of the PAs on the shoot. She's one stop short of Dagenham, that girl, but an absolute honey with sound a great smile and energy. She showed us some of the photos from a recent shoot and I almost fell off my chair. Apparently she's putting together a photo project which for confidentiality reasons, I won't disclose here but suffice it to say, it's going to be a humdinger when it's done and I for one will be at the head of the queue when they're handing out... well, whatever it is they hand out.
Airport and bye to J who's heading North to her folks. P and I get on the plane and both manage to snooze a little. Highpoints of the flight...not crashing. Lowpoints...coach class, small snack packet, no in seat TVs, quiet headphone output, blah blah.
Took a cab from the airport and headed home.
Had a few hours with the munchkin and the missus before bath and bed.
Checked LACasting and grabbed J's headshot and resume which I've now stuck in my file. Her pics are brilliant and I started submitting her straight away. Here's hoping. Typed up a bio and sent it to Stephen for his production meeting tomorrow.
Damn, I meant to photo all the safety stickers in the plant to catalogue all the terrible things that could happen to you as depicted by a very unfortunate stick figure man. This poor guy had hit fingers mangled, his body twisted and squashed all the hope that humans viewing his various misfortunes would be suitably warned and not suffer the same fate. I bet there's some on the 'net somewhere.
