I went to work today a little late because of a long night last night. I also needed to go to the DMV and get my license renewed. The picture that the lady took was hideous. I look terrible…but it was so embarassing to have my picture on a computer screen facing all the people in line that I just hurried and picked one and got the heck out of there. I wasn’t at work for long, I had too much to do at home. I got the schedule worked out for the week and it looks like we should be very productive. I look forward to getting things done, more than you know.
My mom brought home a new air hockey table and ping pong table today. We got both boxes out of the truck and got them in the house. They were heavy…very heavy. After that she asked me to bring some sandbags down from the barn attic to put in the horseshoe pits. The second bag I brought down was in my arms and I missed the second to the last step on the stairs almost busting my knee or ankle. That could’ve ended really badly since I had a 75lb or so bag in my hand. Luckily I didn’t get hurt and was fine.
After that I sorta sat around for the rest of the day just picking at things on the computer. I made a new background for my twitter page which you can see here. I like how it came out. Beyond that I just prepped for tomorrows shoot and captured some footage from last week. Things look nice. Very few gaps are in the films edit right now. Nothing is locked in the edit but there are 3rd, 4th and all the way up to 9th cuts of some scenes already. The edit is coming along nicely and I’m glad to see the film in a much more completed form.
Something else that happened today was I got this numb feeling when thinking about moving. I just felt very odd, I can’t describe it. I haven’t let myself really think too much about it in the past month, because I had to make sure I kept my focus on the film and the work needed before I can even go. I think it is finally starting to creep in whether I want it to or not. The days are getting short. Tomorrow is my second to last Vintage night…I’m gonna miss those folks. I gotta make sure I say goodbye to people.
Tomorrow will be a shorter shooting day but an important one. I gotta make sure I get everything I need, and can’t afford mistakes. Later in the week we’ll do ADR and wrap Eric Stevenson on set. Rob will have his last things to do on the film early next week. Long haul for everyone, I’m glad to see the end, and in good time before I leave. 14 days to go…
Let the week begin…
