Saying Goodbye – Part 2


Today was another day of ADR for Rob.  I got up in the morning and meant to go to work to run something quick then run home but I was just too behind.  We got to work as soon as Rob got here and it took us about 4 hours to complete things.  We goofed around a little towards the end, putting in our voices for other actors.  It was fun putting in my voice for Pastor in a scene and….editing the dialog.  We sent it to him and waited for his phone call, he laughed immediately.  It was great fun, our cheeks were killing us watching a few short scenes with the absolute wrong voices on peoples faces.  Afterwards I waited for my mom to get home, ate some lunch, and played her in ping pong.  She told me to “hurry up and eat your hot dogs, I have to wup you in ping pong.”  I played her and won, woo! :)  I love playing ping pong…and I hope for a nice day on my b-day so we can play forever ha ha.

Later I went to Vintage and said goodbye to a lot of people I wont see for a very long time.  It was bittersweet at best.  I found myself saying goodbye to people more than once during the night, I couldn’t help it.  Everyone had good things to say and encouraged me which meant a lot.  Applebee’s was fun, and the buffalo wings were subpar…they always shortchange me.  Either way it was a great day and I had lots of fun.  Tomorrow is going to be pretty nuts and tiring.  I have our last day of shooting tomorrow, and I’m a bit nervous about completing it…not because of the amount of stuff (the amount is very little), it’s because of my uncertainty of what exactly I need.  I have a good idea but it’s just one of those “I don’t know” circumstances that scares me to death.  We also have something else to do tomorrow I wont mention but I’ve been dreading it for a long time.  Hopefully the day ends well.  I gotta figure out a way to get some ministry work done too after the shoot and the other stuff.  Should be a busy day, and a long one.

Move to CA To-Do List:
- Shoot Tomorrow then come home to do ADR with Eric till night (Eric wrapped)
- Do ADR with Eric all day Saturday if we don’t finish tomorrow
- Sunday is church, then a going away potluck for me with friends and family, then hanging with friends later in the day who I probably won’t see again unless I visit (sadness…)
- Last day of shooting with Rob at church
- Go to my last Vintage night at Tuesday and cry as I say goodbye to friends.
- Shoot Pastor’s interview for the film as well as my Gaffer’s and my moms.
- Finish ADR recording with Katy and Maggie, and anything left with Aaron.
- Work on all the ADR recorded to make sure I’m not missing anything and all takes are good and fit.
- Get any shots that might be left for the film like establishing shots while I have the chance.
- Begin packing.
- Shop for a new wardrobe all day one of the days.
- Somehow work in a 40hr work week at the church (my last)
- Complete training of volunteers for the taping at church and anything needed to be worked out with the guy taking my job in ministry.
- Finalize trip details
- Visit with any other friends and family while I have the chance.
- Finish planning my Bday/Going Away party and have it!

    Kyle…

    Sorry I have been online to encourage you as you make your big move, life has been crazy with the start of a new ministry (more details soon). I am excited for you as you embark on this new journey, relish in the little things, they make up the big things. Always pursue excellence and share as much grace and mercy with others you can! You will love Cali — I miss it most everyday and look forward to the day when my hubby and I retire once on the west coast.

    BE BLESSED!!
