FREE WHAT??!?!
I just had to write something about this because when does this ever happen? Of course, the more important question is when do I ever travel to experience this phenomenon?
OK. So this month's been good to me. I got a couple of mild sized residual checks from First Daughter, I worked 4 days on a new show Lincoln Heights, one day on a new show Standoff and, now, three days on a Toyota Industrial. This has afforded me the ability to buy air conditioners for my apartment, new motorcycle gloves, a new motorcycle jacket and a season subscription to the Geffen Playhouse. And, hell I can pay my rent! I'm a simple guy with simple needs. But the kicker to this month was found mere moments ago...
Right now I am in Inyokern. I think that's where I am. At least that's what the airport is called. Basically I'm 40 miles north of Mojave. 150 miles north of LA - just a stone throw away from the China Lake Naval Weapons base. A moment please... what the fuck is a naval base doing in the middle of the desert? Right. Thought so. Oh, and I accidentally drove onto the base - the guards, not the happiest bunch. Anyhow, middle of nowhere California and staying at the Carriage Inn. Nice place. Actually, really nice for the middle of nowhere - I was going to write middle of BFE, but it dawned on me that I have no idea what the “E” stands for.
Well, sitting at the little desk of the room of the Carriage Inn and what do I find?
Wait for it...
Wait for it...
FREE INTERNET ACCESS!!!
Yup. It's the simple things in life that really get me going. Free internet access. How cool is that? And why did I bring my computer? How much of a geek am I?
Well, there you have it. A blog posting about nothing. This really is the incoherent ramblings of the mostly uninformed.
Off to bed to wake up in 5 hours to sit outside in the hot desert sun for 12 hours as "analyst #7." There are only 7. I don't know what the hierarchy is or if there is one, but 7 out of 7? Dude why couldn't I be like #2 or #4. I feel like the kid at school who got picked last for the team. Wait. Never mind that. They're paying me. I don't care anymore.
