Eli’s Coming… (hide your heart)

That’s a Sport’s Night ref, fyi.
Eli’s not really, coming, my dad is. He’ll be here in a couple of hours and I’m very excited. The last time he was here was when I graduated from my undergrad program four years ago. Four years ago!!?!! Wow. Anyway, sorry for the big gap between posts.

I went on a weekend kayaking trip with my college (last graduate class- whoop whoop!) and then it was all about packing and notifying dudes about my address change and signing district paperwork and blah blah blah. Boring. For you. Exciting. For me. I move on Sunday, and while I hate hate HATE moving, I am pumped about my new place and feel pretty confident that I won’t have to move again for a long time.
Last night was the 3rd annual One Minute Film Festival. I didn’t submit a film this year, but they showed the film I made last year in their highlights/recap section at the beginning. I was honored and also slightly embarrassed. Mike filmed my whole film on his camera and may post it on Vimeo. Very meta. He also took still photos of my scene in Ryan Jeffery’s cool Crown movie. I play the love interest or “leading lady.” I’m not positive that you could define my 15 seconds or so of screen time as a starring role, but I’m going to go ahead and do it anyway. Willow Wonder-star of the whole film festival. Unless you were blinking or taking a sip of beer or giving your boyfriend a kiss when I had my big scene. Oh who am I kidding? I should’ve make a stinking movie. It was nice seeing friends that are sort of off my daily radar. We didn’t stay for much mingling after the show but it was still fun to give hugs and reconnect a bit.
I’m sorry this is sort of a lackluster post. I just wanted to break my non-blogging shame spiral. I’m back on the Internet, that’s all that matters.
