personal Hollywood
Feb. 1st, 2003 02:21 amlast night i closed...it was pretty sweet...they're making this movie [which i found out today is called 21 Grams or something] in town, and one of the scenes was shot at the liquor store that Camy's kind've shares a building w/...so when i first arrived there were all these lights and cables and stuff around...they weren't there too long, but they placed this big order to be delivered to this house near Chickasaw Gardens where they were shooting some more at...i was the one that took it...the order was for $650...(commission alone gave me like $30...) on top of that i got a fucking $70 tip...also, they ordered a little more later...only like $98 this time...i went again, this time getting like $16...so it's like a total of $120 altogether for the two times i went to that set...and something kind've funny: i think the second time i went i may have messed up some shooting...the first time, i went up the driveway and to the back where the catering stuff was...the second time i went to the same place, up the driveway...but "now" everyone was quiet...i guess they were shooting inside...but i drove up there + some opening/closing of the doors at first + starting my car back up when i had to leave...noise happening...maybe i ruined a shot and cost 'em $15,000...that'd be pretty cool...overall i didn't make as much as i was expecting after that run...it was a pretty busy night, but i only ended up taking a total of 24 or so runs...i was taken off the road for about an hour and a half or so before i ended up taking that first big order...and that was durring the busiest time...not that i'm complaining about that...that run gave me more than i would have...i did share some w/ the cook and the manager in the form of alcohol...there was the most gigantic pile of dishes ever almost...though Dan did all the dishes...coming home, i got pulled over again...for my tail light of course...i just got a warning...i guess i'll finally go take it in to get fixed next week...(i think the same cop may have pulled me over for the same thing many months ago...)
today i all woke up early to go to work to door hang...but i guess the weather was bad so we didn't go out...we just stuffed menus and foldex boxes for an hour and a half...when i got back home i actually did some exercise...i walked the dogs around the block...one at a time...(it would be all insane trying to walk the three together...) the main reason for doing it is for Leala, 'cuz she's all fat and needs exercise...and as i'm getting all fat and need exercise myself, it works out perfectly...Leala was no trouble, not only 'cuz she's not so in-shape as the others but 'cuz she won't go 2 feet w/out trying to stop and sniff everything...then i took Lizzie and she just fucking sprinted...it really wore me the fuck out...Lacey liked to run too, but it's easier to hold her back...hopefully i'll make a regular habit of this and maintain some semblance of keeping in shape...and today on ebay i won a Boss limiter pedal...so when i get my amp's speaker fixed i'll hopefully not blow it again...tonight i went over to Jacques/Amber's and kicked it w/ them and Justin...watching some tv...that's about the extent of it...
