HEAT WAVE!

Okay...so I am so not a happy camper! It is 103 degrees here and it is almost 9pm. It reached 109 today! IIIIICKKKKKY! There were two things that were very important to Xian and me when searching for our house: central air and a garage. This place has both...however the ac broke on wednesday night. The good news is that we asked the seller to buy us a home warranty for 1 year from the purchase date and it included the ac. They are coming to fix it on Monday and we only have to pay a $50 deductible...the bad news is that we have to suffer through this excruciating heat with three little fans that do nothing but push around the stifling hot thick air. Poor Xian slept through his alarm this morning because it sounds like a 747 is taking off in our room with all the fans! C'est la vie!

I had an audition for a national commercial for Gold's Gym. They wanted a "normal, beautiful, athletic, natural, woman in her mid to late 20's with an athletic build that can 'mock' exercise." I am way ahead of the game because I can actually EXERCISE! It was in the basement of this cool building that appears to have once been a bank. I was wearing work out attire so I was, at the very least, comfortable. It was somewhat unorganized with my call time being at 3:30 and me not actually going in until after 5. I did great. It all boils down to the "look" that the client wants because I am sure that we all did sit-up, push ups and ran in place PHENOMENALLY well. Although i wore capri pants they asked me to roll them up and my scar was exposed...I will have to get some make-up to cover it up in the future.

The most interesting aspect of the afternoon was that they were casting a horror porn film in the office next to us so there were many interesting and colorful characters coming in and out (no pun intended). I befriended three drag queens that possibly looked better in 4 inch heels, thongs, and fish net stockings than I could ever hope for myself. This is Mayhem, Detox, and Paulina. You go girls!

I hate this heat! I grew up with worse heat in PHX, but we all had pools and central ac.
