A Normal Day

I wake up to the alarm on my cell phone.

It's a dancy little waltz tune. Dee-dee-doo-doo-doo.....

I used to like it but now I loathe hearing it because hearing that tune means it's time to get my ass out of bed and go to my day job for 9 mind-numbing hours.

Some mornings I shower. Others I wake up and I'm still wearing my clothes from the day before. No joke. So I take them off and replace them. I swallow two diet cokes while I'm doing this just to keep from falling asleep.

I only do my hair and makeup on days that I have modeling auditions, called "go-sees." If I have nothing scheduled, I show up to work looking like a homeless person.

I work in an office in the Finance industry. This office resembles something you'd see in a Dilbert cartoon. I refer to it as my "Dilbert" job. Throughout the day my activities vary from returning calls, answering emails, working in excel spreadsheets, going to meetings, surfing the net, gossipping, and watching You Tube.

My side career is modeling and acting. During the day I take long lunches to go on go-sees and auditions. Some weeks I have one every day. Other weeks it's nothing. I book 5% of the jobs I audition for. Most of the gigs I book are ones I find myself, instead of waiting for my agent to call.
I hate waiting, for anything. I'm constantly looking for new things to do because if I don't I will go stir crazy and my head will blow up.

After work I get in my 7 year old car and drive home. It's missing two hubcabs and makes funny noises when I drive. That might sound funny to you, but it's paid for so who's laughing now?

I work out several times a week. I belong to a hotel gym & pool, which also has an outdoor sundeck. I'd love it if I was the only member of my gym, then I wouldn't have to worry about kids peeing in the jacuzzi and sweaty old men staring at me on the treadmill.

I don't cook unless it's an "event" like a romantic thing. Too much work. I order sushi 4+ times a week and eat it at home in front of the tv. If I have sake with it I drink the entire bottle and wind up drunk facebooking people so I try not to drink at home. If you tell people you drink at home by yourself they automatically think you have problems.

I see my boyfriend several times a week. He's a doctor. Both of us want to move back to Los Angeles, that's what we had in common when we met. I hope someday soon I can find a way to make that a reality because I have no idea how I'm going to get my ass back to California. It's my top priority at this point but just thinking about it makes me depressed. (sake)

He calls every day, usually during the day or in the evening after work. We have dinner and then screw like a porno movie. If we don't see each other, I watch tv.

I am addicted to Forensics Files and A&E's Intervention. Watching people who are crazier than me makes me feel good about my life. I'll watch these until I fall asleep, until I hear....

Dee Dee Doo Doo....and then the fun starts all over again.
