Work needs to start right now. “Side job” is barely bringin in 500/month. Behind on everything in a critical way.
Nothing starting up until August and later which means if I don’t get in that , I won’t work the rest of the year. And if that happens I’m toast. #iatse

Going to the movies is a very special experience. This is the experience that I grew up with and what made me want to be in the movies. Do yourself a favor and go to the theater this weekend. Lots of cool options out there.
