Hollywood will have to wait until next season.
I was on the set of the "Ex List". I was in episodes 8 and 9. From the sounds of it, the show was canceled after they aired episode 7. I do not know this to be a fact. It is possible that the rest of the filmed episodes will be aired at a later date. Sorry Penelope. I'm not a star yet.
Filming at the studio here in San Diego has stopped for the holidays. They will start again in a few months or if they pick up another show. I plan on going back when I can.
Tomorrow is the end of my first week of the "dream job". I have to stop calling it that. I tried very hard not to wear the rose colored glasses more than a day or two. I need to see it for what it is. Right now, it is hard work. My brain hurts from all of the studying and I have found a huge flaw. Today I say Mr. Man for about twenty minutes before I left for work. He was a sleep when I got home. That stinks!
For years I was able to do my job without really thinking about it. I had the same group of artists. I dealt with the same agents, publishers and galleries. I really could do my job on auto pilot. Now, it's a different ball game. I have much to learn. Everyday I spend hours reading and studying. Giving talks and presentations to colleges and my bosses. Unlike the work I had before, this time I can't wing it. I need to know exactly what I'm talking about.
I enjoy the challenge. It's great to use the old brain pan again after years of it being dormant.
Today I felt like a complete dunce. Of course the first real person I spoke with, asked me about the Fauvist. For a second I thought I had blacked out. I went completely blank. I couldn't remember anything about it. Not one of the artists came to mind. I couldn't remember what the style was about. I couldn't even remember what the word Fauve meant. It was most embarrassing.
How could I forget Matisse and "Wild Beast"?

Do you remember the first time we met? It's as clear as this morning to me. Those few seconds changed the way I look at life. The first ...

OK, see? You're not beyond your ability. You're just exhausted.
In a few weeks, you won't be. You'll get used to it. You'll find that not only does your brain function all. day. long., but also you get home while Mr Man is still awake. You'll function. And you'll remember the stuff you know, so you don't stand there like a lump when people ask you questions.
It's not too much, it's just a lot all at once, and it'll go back to Dream Job as soon as you get over this bit.
Consider it a long, continual "pinch me".
You're not a star? Pffffft! Remind me why I'm still hanging around here then? ;o)
christine,
no pinching, I bruise.
penelope,
I bring out feelings in others that they themselves don't understand.
Maybe that's it.
