This week

Today Jon left to go work on Indiana Jones 4 back East for a few days. I will meet up with him at his mom's house in NJ on Sunday for his birthday. It is super cool that he is working on such great movie franchise.

My dad has been in town working on selling his show, Martial Arts Explorer. Since he was in town we decided to go to Disneyland yesterday. We had a great time but it was so crowded that it almost wasn't worth going. I guess I get spoiled living here and going on a Wednesday afternoon in the middle of September when the weather is great and there are no lines. I am still glad we went.

So funny...

I am sure most of you have already seen this because this guys is an internet celebrity but I just saw this yesterday for the first time and laughed my butt off. I don't usually share this kind of stuff but I couldn't resist...(click on the image to watch the video)

Whirlwind Weekend

I worked from 6pm Friday night until 6am Saturday morning, I slept 2 hours then got on a plane to fly up to Washington for a dear friends, Echo, wedding on Saturday night (we have been friends since we were 8, crazy). I was the maid of honor in the wedding so it was essential that I was there. I got there about 3 in the afternoon just in time to get ready for the wedding. I was so tired but Starbucks helped me make it through the day. We stayed up late and I got up early this morning and flew back to LA in order to be back in time to join a few other stunt guys to race go carts.

I was in WA for only about 16 hours. I had a great time at the wedding I only wish I could have staying in WA longer so I could see my family. I guess I will just have to make a trip up there some time during the summer.

Working

About a week and a half ago I was hired to be the double for the leading lady on National Treasure 2 for 2nd unit work. I didn't want to say anything because in this business nothing is for certain until you are at work. I am officially starting tonight so I thought is was safe to tell you all.

Sometimes they have two stunt doubles when they are filming two units at the same time. The main stunt double (a super talented stunt woman) and another friend of ours put my name in for it. I was so excited when I got hired. This is a lot of the same people who did the Pirate movies, so to work with them all is cool. They weren't sure when I would start but they colored my hair very blonde and cut a couple inches off to make me match the actress. They thought it would be 3-4 weeks of work originally but you just never know in this business it may just be a few days, either way I will take it!

Update

I surprised Jon on our anniversary night and took him to Ruth's Chris Steak House in Beverly Hills for dinner and then we went to the musical Wicked. We had such a wonderful night.

Monday was my birthday and we also had a wonderful day. We spent the day at our friends pool BBQing and hanging out. Later that night a bunch of our friends went to dinner then we went back to our house for chocolate fondue fountain, which was the best part of the night, after that we played charades. It was such a great day.

The rest of the week we spent networking and working on potential jobs. Jon was hired to be the stunt coordinator for Spike TV's First Annual Guys Choice Awards. This is so cool for Jon. This is his third coordinating gig this month.
