About the job....
So, I've been working full time (and a lot more) since May first and I just realized I haven't really even talked about it. How selfish of me, huh? Actually, it's just because I have been working so much that when I get home I have no desire to sit and write about it. I'm sure the masses will understand, yes? So anyway the job is with a small production company called Inspired Movies. They started out about a year ago making "Bollywood" style films for India distribution and recently crossed over to English film making. They are currently shooting one movie and have 2 more in pre-production scheduled to shoot next month. Needless to say they are very busy. Now my job has been basically organizing the pre-production process. I have been in charge of scheduling, cast contracts, and general day-to-day tasks. I just got my first production assignment to work on a film that they bought and are re-shooting parts of. It will be a short shoot, but I think I have to go to Bombay for 5 days. That should be fun...... and hot! But all in all, the job has a lot of potential, even though I am working insane hours. I will try to keep everyone up to date as the job progresses... but I make no promises! Well, ok.... stop twisting my arm! I promise I promise! Geez! On that note, I'm off to look for a Tuxedo. I'm actually going to buy one.... I'm so tired of renting any time I have a black tie event to go to. Which you know.... is oh so often. ;) So I leave you with some photos of some friends who actually got off their ass to come visit me. ;) Kudos to Nikki and Krista!

Where oh where have I been?
I am soooooo freakin' sorry! I have beeen so unbelievably busy and so unbelievably unmotivated to write in my blog. I keep saying, "I'll write, I'll write, you'll see I will write". But alas, I never write. But what's this? Words....words........ words!!!! I am writing!!!! It's a bloody miracle! Oh well, get over it.... I have a few things to touch base on.
First of all, if you haven't already heard, I'm getting married! Ya know, like with a ring and a cake and stuff? I have been holding my tongue until we actually came up with a date and well the date is August 27, 2004 with a reception on August 28, 2004. We are going to be wed at a resort in Napa Valley called Silverado. Here's a link to check it out....

We are hoping people can come in at least by Wednesday to hang out and just have fun. It will be a small service with mostly close friends and family. There will be a small reception after the service, but a much bigger one in San Francisco the next night. All in all, it should be a great week. I hopefully will see most of you there!
I hate to cut this short but it's getting late and I am really sleepy. So in closing heres a few pictures from our visit to the States a few weeks back. Enjoy and I will chat with you nice folks later, ya hear?

And finally, no matter how many times I see San Francisco it reconfirms my statement that it's the most beautiful city in America.
