Suddenly, I became very busy; it was one of those things that just snuck up on me. I went from just bumming around to promoting, ‘Afterwards,’ and ‘The Hurt Locker’. Both have premiered overseas. ‘Afterwards opens here in January; while ‘Locker’ is being held off so it will be ready for Oscar contention. My part is small, honestly I was honored I was asked to be a part of this Indie film am proud of the work everyone did in making the great film I think it is. You’ll have to tell me what you think once you see it. Getting back into the ‘swing’ of things if you will is good; of course the Season 5 poster is out. I do love traveling, but there is a certain satisfaction in working. This season offers as many questions as it does answers. Art imitates life, at least mine does; just as the show adds more twists, turns and complications so does my personal life.
It hasn’t been all work. Running into Dom at the Toronto film festival was nice. Everyone thought it was orchestrated and we planned, which isn’t true. Maybe I should back step and clarify that once we knew we were both going to be there, we did spend time together. I don’t think if you’ve ever cared about someone that you quit caring about them, at least not if it ended on a positive note. He has been and always will be a dear friend. At this point, that’s all we are and have been for quite awhile. To anyone who really knows him, he remains close ties to people he cares about. This time of year, I always think about Dom and Vig, they gave me my first real taste of the American Thanksgiving tradition.
Halloween, I spent watching Cirque Du Soleil’s ‘Believe’ featuring Chris Angel. Even in my lame costume, he was such a flirt. Each season as a cast we have fewer and fewer scenes with everyone, most of the time the ensembles are now much smaller. Michelle was on set, but I won’t spill if it was a visit or part of the show.
As for romance, it’s not in the cards today, but maybe tomorrow. Who knows?
So for anyone who does read this, that’s what I’ve been up to, or at least a quick overview.
Aloha

Next week, I finally get to see AJ which is wonderful. A long distance relationship is difficult at best; I don’t think any two people can have more difficult schedules to work around. Of all the men I’ve dated, I’d have to say he’s the one. I guess everyone thinks that about their current significant other; but it isn’t always true. I just know what my head, my heart and my gut tell me. I am the luckiest girl in the world when it comes to romance.
Work, that’s another story. I adore Joss; I would never change this experience for anything. With all the joy that comes with acting, there is an equal amount of stress as a producer. I wasn’t the only one disappointed with the poster; thank God there is a new one.
The website was re-launched with a more inviting look, and the trailer is wicked. Reshooting the pilot was a smart move allowing us to pull in the audience quicker. There continue to be script problems, but those were resolved and we were on set last week, that’s with the good.
If there is anything consistent with this show is change. I have to admit that it pisses me off that there are already websites to save Dollhouse. Gives me that slayer walking into the cemetery without a stake and 100 vamps are about to rise. Creepy, I’m sure you’ve all felt it. Back to the change part, we have a new air date, Friday, Feb. 13. Four years ago it was the date Angel was cancelled. I’m taking it as a good sign.
The thing scaring me most right now, meeting his mom. We’re spending Thanksgiving together. Wish me luck on that one.
Our new puppy, which AJ hasn’t met yet, Echo, I had to do it, likes the computer so much that she’s figured out how to turn off the wireless. She turned it off when I was on this week, and here I thought my wireless was down. So if I pop off it’s her, she doesn’t like my being on the computer and barks at my dad and brothers. She’s a spitfire, just like me, but when I take her out, she gets all shy.
Much love to MH and teh J, Shan and everyone I’ve missed. Work has been crazy. I should be around now. I have figured out which button to push when she’s turned off the internet.
I’ve missed you guys.
