Long time no blog

Life has been super crazy for a while, but it's finally settled down into some semblance of normalcy. Basically, in the last few months I've moved shop to LA and started work in the industry. Cole's down here too, and we've basically been nomadic for the past few weeks. Some time spent in Irvine at home, some spent crashing on friend's floors in LA, and some spent at my sister's house in Claremont. For a while, I was pretty sure I wouldn't be able to live with my mom or sis since the commute would be approximately 2 hours. Turns out, though, that I got an internship that enables me to live wherever I damn want.

Which brings me to the internship. I am currently an unpaid employee (can you be an employee if you're unpaid?) at a small studio in Santa Monica. It's actually a pretty fun and laid back environment, and after an initial run around, they offered me this pretty nice job reading scripts and writing synopsis and comments. I'm technically a development intern, which means if we end up choosing a script soon, I could potentially get a credit on the film. That's right baby. A credit. On a movie. A real one.

Best part about the job is, I get to work from home a lot of the time. Since it's basically just reading scripts, I only need to go into the office once or twice a week. Pretty fantastic. No hellacious commute, which means I get to live with my sister and my sister's dogs (yippee!)

So I've painted a wall and made it my own. I'm settling in at my internship, and basically, life is pretty sweet. It'll be sweeter when I have money, but hey, nothing's perfect.

Except this comic. Which is awesome.
