5.5 Months in LA

I've been forging my little star about as long as Fluffy McFluffersons on your right has been post utero. As of today, I've lived in Los Angeles five and a half months. Time is moving far more quickly than I ever anticipated.

I'm finding that more of my time is being absorbed by my day-job and friends than I budgeted when I first moved down here. When I was looking in my crystal ball in Oakey Oakland, I didn't anticipate meeting anyone I'd want to spend that much time with. I actually have friends here - and they give me proper non-Beverly-Hills-style hugs.

But my inner cuddle bug's gain is perhaps acting's loss. I haven't been nearly as focused as I could be. This is evidenced by how many of last month's goals I've checked off the list: 0. I accomplished a fair amount with regards to acting, it just didn't align with what I said I needed to do. Please, if you will, bear witness to the goose eggs (read:dearth) of accomplishment:
