Nite Time Confession Session, 23 September Edition: A- Things learned today: -attempting to set a shoot during shark week is NOT in my best interest. Ever. Must plan better. Ran way to late because I spent an hour and a half walking off the cramps that the Midol didnt touch. Oy! -working with friends is almost too much fun. Laughed so hard I cried. Pro photos or not, they turned out well :) And its a great learning experience for both of us. I think its important that if Im going to actually model professionally (which, by the way, I AM!) that I understand lighting and posing and post-processing. -Yup. Need to get back to the gym. While Im totally happy with the work Ive put in, I dont want to have to depend on photoshop. Editings one thing. Photoshop is another completely. I want to be able to have fun and not over-think where to put my arms so they dont flab all over. I want to be able to have fun and not over-think my thighs (in shorter outfits). I want to tone up. Period. Besides! I have races to run, a derby league to get in, a cardio pole class to master... But yeah. For non-thinking modeling and to be able to walk a runway with confidence? I need to get back to the gym. -Changing in the middle of the park isnt too bad. I got honked at! Granted it was by a flock of GEESE, but Ill take it... LMAO! -Cattails grow in muck. I mean, I KNOW that. Ive KNOWN that for years. ...apparently I forgot. Re-learned. Now to clean my shoes... -Nope. Im not published. Hell! Im barely hired! But you know what? Im going to keep going. Mission for October? 3 shoots. November? 3 shoots. December? 4 shoots. More images. More submissions. More auditions. More learning. More perfecting of a craft that Im too old to get into. And Im gonna make this happen. Maybe not today, maybe not next year! But I WILL make it. I WILL. Selfies to continue, folks. Selfies to continue... B- Moving on. Dear headache and cramps: Youve had 3 days. You get TWO more and thats it. TWO. Tops. Then? Then Im going to solve the problem you are creating in my life. Im not 100% sure HOW...but theres a bar down the street. Ill start there... C- Headed back to what used to be my High School athletic fields today. Flashbacks, folks. Flashbacks. I dont recommend it... But I had a GREAT time watching people. I would have been watching Minion play soccer, but shes on the injured list. So I plugged into some hick-hop and watched parents watching... ...FACEBOOK ON THEIR PHONES. Seriously. It was sad as hell. These are MIDDLE SCHOOLERS! WATCH YOUR KIDS PLAY SPORTS!!!! Youve paid for them to play. You drove out there to the field. LEAVE YOUR PHONES IN THE DAMN CAR! These are YOUR kids! YOUR CHILDREN! Get off your damn phone already! D- Im thinking about playing solitaire for a while. You didnt need to know that, but it was in my brain. So here it is on the computer screen for yall. AND 5- When did Hollywood quit making good movies? Theres NOTHING that Id pay $8 to see in a theater. Nothing. Hasnt been in years! In fact, the last movie I had to see in a theater was Titanic. And honestly? Looking back? It wasnt worth the $6... And all the crap sequels! I mean, how many Fast and Furious movies are they REALLY going to do?!?!? Can NO ONE come up with new ideas???? *sigh* Okay. Im off to soak my tootsies. Because I can :) Mu-AH!
