Right now I'm helping two friends with their match.com accounts (one advising and revising her profile, and the other one I wrote her profile with her and will be writing or monitoring her correspondences). I like to pretend that I'm an expert now that I just happened to get lucky (found a great guy). It's all a numbers game, though, I suppose. One of my friends I'm helping has agreed to write guest posts about her dating adventures... going back to my blog roots! Her profile is done, but she hasn't signed up or uploaded her pictures yet, so I'm not sure when that will be, but it's around the bend.
Speaking of romance, my three month anniversary with the boyfriend (formerly known as Mr. Show Biz- feels too formal and cheesy to say now that we're an item) is coming up on Tuesday. I have sewing class and he's pretty busy at work, so we're just going to celebrate this Friday. If it were a one year, I'm sure we'd both rearrange our schedules, but three months is pretty small. Notable, but small.
Last night the BF and I worked on one of my business ideas. It's really starting to take shape, and it feels so shocking to actually move forward on something I never thought I would do. It's exciting, but somehow it feels a little scary, too! I don't really understand why it's scary to me. There's no financial risk and not too much work to do... it's just really happening and that blows my mind. It's weird. It's nice to know that he's not just a talker... he's backing up one of his promises he made to me awhile ago, and I appreciate that.
My beloved commercial agent left her agency for the East Coast. She always had an open door policy with me, and I looked forward to returning to her this fall, but now that safety net is gone! I could try to woo her old assistant... I think I made some money for him, too, but it's not as certain. She and I had a special connection, and I genuinely loved her. I feel like I'm starting over at square one!
Okay, there's a lot more going on, but I don't think anyone has the patience to read a book now. I'll just post up little random things and pictures as I think about them. Just wanted to check in and say hello! Hope everyone is enjoying their last days of summer : )

I am sorry to hear about your commercial agent. What a bummer. It's sad to lose supportive people in your life, whether they're agents, co-workers, friends, family, etc.
ReplyDeleteI owe you some pics, my friend! Need to gussy up and start posing. :)
Thanks, Anon! Yeah, all losses suck. She was probably the most reliable person I knew in LA, and she gave me unconditional love. Hard to find in this town sometimes. She was my constant! (Another Lost reference)
ReplyDeleteYes, you do owe me some pics!! My other friend I'm helping has already seen a huge spike in her dating life!
