Current Mood:  exhausted
This was the most insane weekend I can remember in a long time.
FRIDAY
Work work work, then off to spend one last night with Erin before I drive his ass and stuff back to Jacksonville on Saturday. Instead of a party though he takes this last chance to film a short. The second character (its only two people in the film) bails on the crew at the last second so he asks me if I wanna give it a try. Um....OK! Makeup, fake blood and lotsa lotsa LOTSA duct tape. I end up being strapped to the chair for about 6 hours straight. The only bad part was when I got a charlie horse, and when my leg was "supposed" to break free of the duct tape by getting pulled free, except no-one prepped the tape so when the dude grabs/slapps my leg free, it just pulls the chair around twisting my body and legs further into the metal folding chair. NOT FUN. Overall I can't wait to see this thing, even though you only see the back of my head and some profiles here & there for the most part.
SATURDAY
I got to bed at like 6:30am due to the filming takin sooo long. Got up went over and finished packing the rest of his stuff. We head over to Uhaul and while hes getting the trailer I go clean my contacts. I had not worn them while filming but had put them in that morning. All day my left eye seemed to be dirty looking so I figured I'd clean it and go on. As soon as I took it out BAM!! my eye started burning. After a few minutes is calmed down a little so I took out my contacts and was going to just go glasses the rest of the day. By the time we went to hook up the trailer, I could not see out of my eye. Hospital. No scratches (thank god) but it is severely irritated. By now its all swolled like I got punched and I cant open it without it burning. The meds help a little but I pretty much spend the rest of the day on a couch listening to the TV. My sis-in-law and I are talkin for a bit while everyone else runs out for a sec and her mom calls. Her grandpa has is not answering his phone. Hes old lives alone and always answers the phone. By the time we get over there they find him next door, he had forgotten to take his phone with him....
SUNDAY
Wake up, more meds in the eye. Feelin a little better. I need to finish cleanin out my old apt as my last day is Monday. On the way over, my ex-wife calls. She's going to the hospital now (she can't breathe) so I need to get the kids.
As of this morning the kids are at school, I'm at work for a bit til I go see the eye doctor. Ex-wife had severe flu and woke up this morning with double eye-infections. So I'm gonna keep the chillins another night. I can see well enough to drive and so on but my eye is still a tiny bit swollen.
SO, how was your weekend? |
