Since I've left Texas I guess I don't hear my subliminal quota of Tex Slang. "Howdy", "Ya'll" and dare I even say " I want a coke" and not have it mean coke a cola. So now I find myself saying these things. Is it because I don't hear them as much and need them to be said by me or anybody? Or is it because I usually say these things? Don't really know.
So I was really excited at the beginning of the week because out of the 60 something emails I had sent out asking for jobs, I had actually recieved an email back asking for an interview and I freaked out. It was for a really cool special effects makeup company.
So I went in for the interview.
When I first showed up I realized even though I was wearing jeans, sneakers and a button up white shirt tucked in, I was grossly overdressed for this place. Everyone seemed to be in casual work clothes, t-shirts, shorts etc. Damnit.
Some young guy a few years older then me interviewed me and I guess I've just been ruined by years of corporate style interview prcoesses, becuase I realized I came off really dry and dare I say boring. I was saying all the right things but I was aying all the right things eveybody else says.
So I've been waiting all week to hear back and at this point I haven't heard anything back.
I don't think I got the job.
I also really really like the beaches here in Cali. So far Venice is my favorite. I saw a dude do a front flip over 10 people. Nuts.
That's about it on that front, back to sending emails and scouring the internet for jobs.
A few quick notes before I go:
Transformers 2 this week. AHHHHHH nerdgasm.
Kat Candler is gonna be in town for the LA filmfest.
Buying my new iPhone 3GS today. That's cool.
I also realized I need to get out of the house in order to get any writing done. Gotta find a cool SpiderHouse-esque place to do that at.
Bengal and Rourke is moving along slowly but steadily. It's actually gonna be pretty good. Badass, emotional, funny, over the top, cool as shit, are some of the terms I'd use to describe it.
This is funny:
