Atop the Fourth Blog: Day 3

Accidentally overslept a little bit today. Oops. Not too bad though, just an hour. I'm rooming with Nash, and I completely forgot that he had the day off, and we'd previously just used his alarm, so without even thinking I didn't set mine. It wasn't too big of a deal, it was an honest mistake, and we didn't even start filming until 3pm. I slept until 9am, so the only way it would have been bad is if for some reason I slept past 3. We were supposed to begin filming earlier, but the set was still being built. The set is freakin impressive. You can really see the money in this project. Lewis raised a shitload for this movie, and between the cameras, the crew, the set, the lighting, and everything, he used his money wisely and this is shaping up to be a very good looking project. It's really fun being on the bridge set, and not just because I got to say a Tequila and Bonetti reference. That's right, the Atop the Fourth Wall movie has a Tequila and Bonetti reference! I'm having a lot of fun on this movie. I'm playing the Anniversary Movie continuity of The Cinema Snob, except I'm a lot goofier in this. In this movie, I'm the ship's comic relief, which means I just randomly show up to say something sarcastic, smarmy, or a reference that only makes sense to my character. I love playing a dude who will just pop into frame to say something ridiculous, and then leave the scene. Hell I think my first line in the movie involves the words "honey britches" or "bitch tits," depending on the take that they used. Aside from that, this was a good day for me in general. All of the depression that I had been dealing with was extremely extremely low today, to the point to where it was pretty nonexistent. Yesterday was pretty bad, but I powered through it. That's what I do, when the going gets rough, I power through it. In this particular case though, powering through it has hasn't been the easiest thing in the world, and when I get back to Springfield it's probably in my best interest to talk to some professionals and get some extra help. I'll be fine in the long run, don't worry about me cracking or anything like that, that's not gonna happen. Sometimes when you go through something fucked up, you gotta do whatever you can to help yourself get better and find peace. Until then though, here's hoping tomorrow will be a good day too. I'm still posting pictures on facebook, and throughout the day on twitter. I've got an awesome set of friends here, and we're having a great time making a movie together. And at the end of the day, that's what we love doing. Making videos and movies and shootin the shit.
