Everyone
So I went to the track today to watch the drugged up juvenile ponies run as fast as they can. Opening day, which means it's full of douchebags and chicks who can't handle their liquor, so they're somewhere between hot mess and train wreck. I'm not a huge fan of horseracing, but this was a special sacrifice for the sake of art. I'm not going to explain; you're just going to have to take my word for it. Anyway, I did pretty terrible in the first few races, and then I won $4.80, which was nice. Then I won $40 a couple of races later, so I was happy. Then I hit the jackpot on a couple of pseudo-longshots and won $240 on a single race. Kind of ridiculous when you think about it. But hey, I ended up in the black, so I'm happy. I've never actually won big when gambling (mostly because I don't bet big), so this was pretty exciting. Anyway, I now have some money for my film that I didn't have before. So that's good.
I also got an invitation to visit the Magic Castle in LA, which is pretty awesome. I just have to figure out when I can get up there. I'm also going to nerd-fest (aka Comic-Con) on Saturday, so we'll see how that goes. Another ridiculous thing in my life. But oh well. My life wouldn't be mine if it weren't ridiculous. That's kind of the definition.
I'm short on boxes. I can't pack up my house without them, and I need to pack asap. I hate moving, but at least this is the last time I'll be doing it for quite some time.
So anyway, in the grand scheme of my professional life, it's go time. I have just over 60 days to finish the bulk of my work, and that's a ton of pressure to deal with. I'm about to fork over a large chunk of cash for a location rental, and my fundraising campaign is not going well. I'm actually somewhat surprised at the lack of support I've gotten from so many people. Plus, SOMEONE keeps posting suggestive comments on the facebook page, which doesn't help the credibility of the film. It seriously needs to stop. I need help, not heckling.
Anyway, today was a good day. But I need everyone I know to stand behind me and cheerlead. Everyone.
