kick off party

fittings all day today. hot. sweaty. stinky. came home, made a big salad and a light stirfry, put my party dress on and went out in the pouring rain. really, thunderstorm. but it ended up being ok. (the kick off party for the movie, i mean.) found people i knew to start with, and met others. the world's hottest cinemetographer remembered who i was. she beat our Star Name in pool. when i saw the Star Name as i was leaving, i was wondering if she would be sighted in a gossip column. how cool would that be? but i don't think our Star Name's name is quite big enough for that. maybe. anyway. the addison bus stops running at ten (TEN! i KNOW! and the addison brown line station is closed!) so i got a ride to the redline with tom's mom. and what does she drive? a mini cooper. convertable. she put the top down. i could see stars and drunk girls falling off their shoes after the cubs game. it was pretty sweet. this may be the last time you hear from me in a while. tomorrow is busy getting my life in order before we start shooting. i'm packing up mitzi and taking her to d's house for the shoot. she needs to be played with more than i can. i gotta be in berwyn at 7am on sunday. as timon said so ominously, It Starts.
