Okay .... well, a few days ago I had the feeling that our project was going south and that we were just plain fucked and might have to scrap our plans for a summer shoot and move this thing to later on in the year. That's not something that I wanted to do, but at that point ... I had no lead actress, no second male lead and my sound guy (who also has a substantial part in the film) was only going to be available a small portion of the time when we were going to need him.

I honestly was freaking out. Jennifer had to drop out of the project because of her schedule, then magically I get a phone call from someone who saw our ad for actors that wanted to audition. And holy shit ... it was a female. So Dave and I met with her today ... and she was fucking awesome. I was still bummed about the fact that Jennifer had to give up her part ... and since I wrote it for her I knew she'd be perfect ... but this girl ... Regina... she was really good. She fit the part very well.

I still have to fill the part of Allen, which is a major task in itself because of the things this character does and says in the film. It's not going to be easy, but I do have some ideas about it and if it comes down to the wire, we're just going to go with an idea that I have had recently and see what happens. I don't want to get into it too much now because it's too early, but it will be interesting to say the least.

Those people up there in those pictures? Those are my new STARS!!! That's Regina on the left and John on the right. They are both amazingly cool people and I look forward to working with them. Do they look like they might date? Or have dated and then she dumped his ass because he's a pussy? I sure hope so. Otherwise I have no movie.

Hopefully readthroughs and rehersals will start next weekend as our start date continues to creep up on us. If you could wish me luck ... that would be ... great.

I know my title has absolutley NOTHING to do with anything I've just said ... but my friend told me that last weekend and I thought I was going to pee on myself. Because it's true .... right? Hello? Anybody?
