Get Your Dunkin Monday

The wife is off on a work trip, so I'm in SM alone -- writing -- and then working. This weekend was not long enough. I'm beginning to look for new work with hopes of finding a similar schedule where I can keep auditioning and such. Over the weekend I tried the impossible -- I tried to watch the Sunday Shows...I lasted a whole 30 seconds before I wanted to throw the tv through the window. Needless to say I quickly turned on a movie and saved myself the pain.

Here are your highlights:

Immigration reform has movement, the problem? It's still being done in archaic fashion.

Climate Change -- we're looking at it being "far worse"

The insular Republican world

Gun nuts are nutty

Lucas Matthysse made a statement, who's next?

Mid-Day Update

I slept in apologies. Tonight the wife and I are attending the LA Art Show premiere party. We're excited to be attending this classy and unique event. Two newly made friends were kind enough to invite us and we couldn't say no. Granted, I'm going to feel a bit poor and maybe a bit out of place, but I'm always okay playing pretend. Plus we get to view a ton of amazing art, something the Mrs. and I enjoy and don't get to do often enough.

Here are your highlights:

Hillary Clinton talks Benghazi and it gets a bit heated

Rep. Paul Broun needs to re-read the Constitution

Obama GOAT?

Steve M. thinks the Right is gonna run with Hillary soundbites

GOP really doesn't have a hand to play debt or budget wise

I worked yesterday morning. Then I head to church for my weekly meeting. I wasn't feeling it when I walked in and then Monsignor chatted with me. It was a normal and most basic of conversations, but him simply asking about my day, my wife and family was exactly what I needed. A lot is happening in March with me. I'm excited and it's the littlest moments that make the journey so special.

As for inauguration day, the second time is much sweeter. Not nearly as celebratory, but more so satisfying. America is changing. We started the ball rolling. There is a lot of work to do I know...let's just remember we won't see this many firsts in sometime. I can now look forward to the inevitable election of our first Asian-American president, our first female president, our first Latino president, our first gay president and the list goes on. Will these all be in my lifetime? I hope so and for once I can say I think a couple may be so while I'm alive.

Get Your Dunkin Friday

Here we are again. Back to Friday already. This month is moving at lightening speed and is shaping up to be more fun than expected. The wife and I were invited to a large art expo this coming Wednesday. It's full of celebs, art and free booze. Then the wife is headed to Seattle and Phoenix for the first time on work, so that's sad for me since I can't go, but awesome for her. I'm still writing, meeting and acting away. 2013 let's get this ball rolling!

Here are your highlights:

The Debt Ceiling Battle looks to be over

I have no words

I'm on a writing spree. I've finished two drafts for a new project and onto a third. I've got sketches to complete for the Matt F Show and I might just start blogging more...don't hold me to that. The week is just beginning, but I have a feeling those in charge really wish it was Friday already. You?

A new week and new goal setting. The lady and I found out yesterday that 2013 is the year of friends' weddings. We received in the mail a couple of Save the Dates starting the fun in June. Now the key is to figure out a way to afford all the travel. Two in Central Illinois, one in Michigan and one in New Mexico...anyone else want to get married? Do it in California! I kid, we're excited, but boy is this gonna be another busy year.

Here are your highlights:

Yesterday I had a new head shot shoot with a very talented photographer.  I'm ecstatic about the end result and can't wait to get them out to my agents. Yes, I'll probably share them...eventually. There's some good things happening in 2013 already. A couple of us are slowly developing new projects and the season is beginning for acting again. I've got a feeling...

Here are your highlights:

The amount of ignorance and offensive stupidity displayed by the pro-gun lobby is astronomical. Gun Advocate: No slavery if blacks had guns

I have a new headshot shoot tomorrow. I'm both excited and nervous. I've never been very comfortable one on one with a camera. In this case a lot rides on the success of the shoot. According to the very important people, a good headhsot can change your rate of auditions. Heck sometimes it's solely based off of your picture. It's a silly and shallow business, but I gotta do what I gotta do. 2013 is about focus. This is the beginning.

Here are your highlights:

Obama to nominate Jack Lew to Treasury Secretary

Genius idea in Utah and by genius I mean the dumbest thing I've read all day. Mandated gun ownership

I just slept 12 hours. After such an emotional roller-coaster of a game (and a few too many bourbons) I crashed. I'm hesitant to write a full review of the season a day later, but what a season. The Washington Redskins are back. It's been a long time since I've watch each game thinking we could find a way to win. That's a special turn of events and it has great deal to do with RG3. Yesterday's loss was a tough one, but the Seahawks were the healthier team, to me, that's what made the difference later in the game. There's a huge debate going on about RG3, you can read an opinion here. I just hope the young man is okay and realizes he doesn't have to do it all anymore. He has an entire Redskins Nation behind him. I've got the day off, so I'll be walking, writing and breaking my New Year's resolutions. HAIL TO THE REDSKINS!

Here are your highlights:

Big Banks get off easy for destroying families' lives and taking their homes

Not breaking news: South Carolina still has good ole fashioned racists.
