Day 1

After working none stop for 13 days i have a new respect for the people who work in the movie industry. I cant imagine working 12 hours a day 30 - 40 days with no break. I'm noticing the starting symptoms of carpel tunnel, my ankles hurt, my heals hurt, and I'm so stressed i gave myself a canker sore the size of a dime. So now i have the next 10 days off for RAGBRAI, a 400 mile tour across Iowa. I've never step foot in the mid west. I'm looking forward to things like, 100% humidity, Kansas City barbecue and thunder storms.

Last night i went to bed at 2, curled up underneath a blanket at the foot of Andrew's bed while he packed his bags all night. I woke at 5 and drove his SUV (Gold Rush) for the first time to LAX, there was no way the bike boxes would fit in my car (the Pup Mobile). I've never drove a car that was that big with that much power, i felt like i was driving a sky scraper. It was horrifying, but i'm thankful that he was able to check my bike box for me. Now i have 6 hours to pack everything and find my way to LAX.
