Good Friday (no relation to Jesus)

Fred Savage gave me an invaluable piece of advice a couple years ago. Yes, "Wonder Years" Fred Savage. Random, I know. Focus.

He said (and this is a loose quote, but you'll get the gist):" "It's never about THAT audition. Just go in there, give a strong read, and even if you're not right for the role, they'll always remember you, and it will end up paying off."

Case in point: yesterday when I went in for producers for that ABC pilot, they ended up loving my read, but not thinking I was right for the part. My manager calls later in the afternoon to say that they want me to come back next week for the other female lead.

Cool, right? And a perfectly illustrious example of the point I was trying to make. Awwww-yeah.

So that set the tone for a lovely Friday, which only got better-- my beau took me on a date filled with surprises (dinner at Church & State...craveable goodness, a show at the Ahmanson, and a reminder of just how good it is....life, I mean.)

So yes, no pity party for this girl today.

Go have an awesome weekend guys -- I will be reading scripts, drinking vino, and thinking of you (whoever you are out there).
