Today a new sun rises for me; everything lives, everything is animated, everything seems to speak to me of my passion, everything invites me to cherish it.

Tuesday, October 16th, 2007

Every Monday night, an event occurs called Chuckfest.
Chuckfest is a simple event, and doesn’t require much pomp or fancy to-do. All you really need is a t.v. tuned to NBC and fans of the new hit show Chuck.

-Several scenes took place on our backlot and I recognized all of them (doesn’t really help those of you who haven’t been to the lot, [...]

I Still Love Chuck

Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

Monday, Monday

Monday, October 1st, 2007

Today I had orientation. B-O-R-I-N-G, or “bore-ientation” for you Office fans. But at least I’ve figured out how and when I accrue vacation/sick pay and benefits. And I got a free WB mug (it’s very nice) and a decent messenger bag with the WB shield on it. I also got a [...]
