… today for the first time in years, I laid down still in the grass, faced the sky and soaked up the sun…

… it was so relaxing and peaceful… why don’t I ever do this!?   Of course, I was lazy and super tired for the rest of the day, so maybe it’s a good thing I DON’T regularly do this… ;-)

… honored today to be asked by a long-time Hollywood filmmaker to appear in one of his short films…

… of course, I will do it, especially after reading your script and the tears that came as I read it… fun to think you were making the movie “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf” with Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton when I was just a baby! … so honored to be asked to do this project…
