Coming to a Cell Phone Near you

So things have been going pretty ok this week. On Tuesday, I had an audition for a film called Asian Stories. It's an independent film. I think the audition went decent, not incredible. I get frusterated when I don't perform like I wanted to, but I blame myself for not preparing enough. It was a lot of dialogue and since I hadn't memorized it, I had to look at the page a lot, which I hate to do, because it doesn't allow me to "act" as much with the other person giving me my lines.

On Wednesday, I performed for the first time on the main stage at The Ice House comedy club in Pasadena. It was for Comedy Time, www.comedy-time.com which plays 3-5 minute acts on cell phones on Mobi TV. It's a pretty cool thing. People with video phone and who have Sprint, Cingular or AT&T can access all these different shows, including comedy sets from different comedians. My set went really well and I think I will be called in to audition for a host position on Comedy Time. So I may be one of the first Cell Phone Hosts. I'm not sure how it will work, I just hope that I fit onto those tiny cell phone screens. I may need to lose some weight, especially with those tiny cingular phones out now.

Wow, two cars just crashed into each other outside of my apartment. Both drivers Asian. That's just a combination looking for trouble right there. This is like the second accident that has happened in front of me. When driving the other day this truck was trying to cross a busy street and he got all the way to the last lane and then BOOM, another car hit him. The truck spun around and came about a foot away from hitting my car with was on the other side of the busy street. I was thinking great, another 'ghettofication" on my car. But I could have used the money from their insurance.

Last night I was driving into my apt garage and there were two Mexican guys sitting on a truck inside the garage with their doors open, Mexican music blasting, drinking 40's. I swear, the Latinos and Asians in LA couldn't be more stereotypical if they tried.

I started running the other day at the gym. It took me about a week to recover from the pain and soreness it caused to my body. I don't understand how people run for fun. That's like donating blood for fun. But I'm going to keep with it. I ran yesterday and am not too sore today. Hopefully it'll make me lose weight faster.

I just checked on the accident outside. For some reason there are about 15 people around the cars now. Two groups of Asians, which I assume are friends and family of the drivers and then some Mexicans or El Salvadorians, whatever the hell they are. I'm not sure how they fit into the equation. I think they are just being nosy cuz they have shit else to do in their lives. Maybe they are waiting for the Asians to turn around so they can steal their car radios. It's funny how everyone is standing outside watching. Before you say, but you went and looked too, there's a difference. I heard a large crash and went to see what happened. Then I left. I didn't stand there or walk to the crash to put my nose into it. One of the Mexicans actually took a camera over. Oh God, just like a Latino to try and turn some fender bender into a Telenovela. Get a life people. Haha, they don't even have batteries in the camera. Damn, the stereotypes keep coming.
