January to June 2006 Still recovering but feeling OK.

01/12/06 Reporter Joey 10.5 hours (I remember this was outside and cold but on a studio lot.)
01/13/06 Holiday 11 hours (Directed by an alumni of AU.)
01/16/06 Holiday 16 hours
01/17/06 Grey’s Anatomy 8.5 hours
01/18/06 Las Vegas 8 hours This was a buffet day.
01/19/06 Charmed 8 hours
01/20/06 Upscale Restaurant Crumbs 10 hours (They made me a regular restaurant patron.)
01/21/06 Dream Girls 13 hours
01/23/06 The Suite Life 8 hours (This set also like me. the union regulars were cool. Though one day a woman from Carnivale I knew showed up and we had a talk about a guy we both kind of were involved with on some level, her more than me. I found out she knew about me, so the entire time when she was flirting with him in front of me, she knew. I would have had more class than that. I told her I beat cancer but I think it went in one ear and out the other. Later she showed up as the stand in on Gray’s Anatomy, where she made my life hell for a guy I never slept with and we were at that point just friends. Not very mature.)
01/24/06 The Suite Life 8 hours
01/25/06 The Office- cancelled call but they paid us anyways. Kind of cool. 8 Hours
01/26/06 Upscale wedding Crumbs 9.3 hours

02/06/06 The Suite Life 8 hours
02/07/06 Grey’s Anatomy 8 hours
02/08/06 How I met Your Mother 10.9 hours (Can I tell you I kind of love FOX TV though I do have issues with the politics of the news.)
02/09/06 Mourner/ choir The West Wing 12 hours
02/10/06 Shopper Desperate Housewives 8 hours
02/13/06 Commercial 12 hours
02/14/06 Commercial (recall) 12 hours
02/15/06 Dream Girls 13 hours
02/17/06 Grey’s Anatomy 13.5 hours (I actually liked working this show back then because it was hard. I was not a zombie, though maybe that is why this nightmare happened, I was too good. They would do these crazy camera stunts. I once smacked into one of the guest star leads. He appologized to me when I said I was sorry and was nice enough to point out that he had crossed when he was not supposed to. I’ll give you a hint. He is now on NCIS Los Angeles.)
02/21/06 Nancy Drew Fitting 2 hours
02/22/06 Commercial 10 hours
02/23/06 Nancy Drew 8.3 hours
02/24/06 Wedding Guest Courting Alex 11.8 hours
02/28/06 Criminal Minds 8 hours
03/01/06 Mr Woodcock 12 hours (I remember starving on this set because I could not eat anything. Everything was meat. One of the crafty guys surprised me though, he waved me over to the SAG trucks and handed me a bowl of vegetable soup. He told me he had seen me around and knew I did good things for others and he was just returning the favor. It pays to be nice I guess.)
03/02/06 Mr Woodcock 10.5 hours
03/06/06 Winter White 10.7 hours (I think this was a Hallmark Special.)

03/09/06 Ghost Whisperers 9 hours
03/10/06 The Suite Life 10.3 hours
03/13/06 Ghost Whisperers 12 hours
03/14/06 Ghost Whisperers 13.5 hours (I played a ghost for about a week on this. It is the episode with the airplane that crashed. I have been told I was featured. Actually the director pointed me out and told a camera guy I was good. To be honest though, I have not seen it. I did not own a TV at the time, and I am over it, but I also did not like to see myself. I love to film act but I am just like that. We put so much weight on looks in this society and frankly in this show it was more important for me to look well, dead, which is not very attractive anyways.)
03/15/06 Brothers and Sisters 8 hours
03/16/06 Two and a Half Men 8.3 hours (Yes I have been on set with Charlie Sheen, this one and only time. Though I would see him some other times when I was at the WB. That was well normal. I find all the hype over what is going on right now amusing, sad, and well strangely familiar and yet not. It just amazes me how much drama built up before Sheen and the show parted and well I needed a lawyer which makes me even more upset with the legal profession and its greed.)
03/17/06 Ghost Whisperers 4 hours ?? Weird thing about Ghost Whisperer. The AD worked with a guy I went to college with back at WMC on Silk Stockings. And I know there was a reason this was only 4 hours. I think it was a cancelled call or something off like that?
03/20/06 NCIS 8 hours I looked at the vouchers and I really did work two shows in one day, one started at 7 am and ended at noon and the other started at 2 pm. I was also booking myself at this time. I remember a PA on NCIS told us we should get more work because we would be done in a few hours so I got on a rush call.
03/20/06 Grey’s Anatomy 8 hours
03/21/06 Ghost Whisperers 9.3 hours
03/22/06 CSI 12.5 hours
03/23/06 The Prestige 2 hours fitting
03/24/06 CSI 11.8 hours
03/25/06 LAPD Primary 13 hours I think this became Stand Off.

03/28/06 the Prestige 13 hours
03/30/06 Commercial 10 hours
03/31/06 Grey’s Anatomy 11.7 hours
04/02/06 Elements The Last Time? not sure hours but the job was a check for $85.
04/04/06 Alias – Sydney Unit 13 hours (Ran into makeup people from Carnivale here which was cool. Jennifer Garner bought everyone a coffee/ shake truck and we all got to have some. We were at a race track and it rained allot and we were in nice dresses and had to fight to stay dry and warm and look nice.)
04/10/06 Reporter 24 11.6 hours (I think we were at an airbase at this point and I passed the background check to work on the base. So I don’t know what happened two years ago.)

04/24/06 Grey’s Anatomy 12.6 hours
04/26/06 Boston Legal 12.2 hours
04/27/06 Boston Legal 9 hours (I think this might have been when Michael J Fox was guest starring. I remember they let me and this other girl after we did our job actually just hang out and watch Fox act from behind the camera. I think they knew we both would get a kick out of it. Like we both were “should be go back to holding,” and the crew indicated we should stay and watch. TV history and it was awesome.)

05/25/06 Weeds 8 hours
05/31/06 My Super ex-girlfriend 9.5 (And so is Luke Wilson.)
06/08/06 the Shield 8 hours (My friend Ray Latulipe bought me lunch today. I thought we met before I had cancer, but now I am not sure. He died in 2008 of cancer too. He did not have it when I met him. Life can change in an instant. I so can’t stand the people at Grey’s Anatomy when I think of him.)

“Balls of Fury” casting wanted to give me a SAG voucher but I had mine already and to boost my own confidence and prove to myself I can act I auditioned and got into AADA’s summer program. I hate the way this town treats people who do background and well I felt that needs to stop.
One of the actors on “Balls of fury” kept making faces at me when his back was to the camera and I heard him tell the director “She is very serious.” The director replied: “That is why she is up there.” It was really hard not to laugh. I was shocked the director knew anything about me at all, but he did. That was cool. I was even allowed to walk into the wrap party at the Sky Lounge, if I remember correctly. I just went long enough to give the Director’s assistant thank you notes.
