What's the Haps
So it's been a while. Maybe I'll get more consistant again.
Anyway, a lot has been going on. Andrea and I moved back to Kansas City. It was a tough decision. I of course did not want to leave my friends, and it will be a little more difficult to do what I want to do here in KC, but in the end it pretty much came down to finances. I'm getting married, I want to buy a house, I will be having kids sometime in the next decade. These things would have been very hard or impossible living in Los Angeles. Plus, I have to admit, LA kind of sucks. There are great things about that city, but living life day to day there borders on soul crushing. In the end, the only thing holding me there was my friends, and, sorry guys, that's not enough. My hope is to visit a lot, and certainly if something comes up career wise I will move back if necessary, but I'm pretty much done with LA at this point.
Hey, great news. Team Atrox Unlimited's entry in the Mayday film festival won "Best in Show." Sure, it's mostly a bunch of friends damn near killing themselves by making a movie in 24 hours "just for fun," but it still feels pretty good. Plus our lead actress Nell took home "Best Actress." We rule!
Anyway, that's all for now. I'll try and post again once I start seeing some movies/watching TV (still haven't watched the "Veronica Mars" finale). Plus I am sure to have something to say about "The Sopranos" finale on Monday.
See ya soon!
