THE FINDER

I drove to Dodger Stadium and got there too early since there was no traffic.  So I drove down the street to some fire fighter administration building and napped until it was close to my call time.  Then I drove into the lot and parked at lot G.

No one was checking anyone in, so I just hung out at holding until I finally found someone handing out the vouchers.  He told me to go to wardrobe then get something to eat.  Everyone seemed pretty nice,  but a little bit unorganized.  That's not unusual when it's a first season show, so it wasn't a big deal.

The PA told us that we wouldn't be shooting our scene for awhile, so we got to hang out and chill for a little bit.  I didn't really nap even though I had my chair.  Instead, I read some Philip K. Dick stories from a book I borrowed from the library.

Then we were moved closer to set but still had some time before our scene.  So I got a chance to check out the Mexican fruit stand.  A guy chops up a bunch of different fruits like watermelon, papaya, mango and other juicy treats along with some cucumber, squeezes some fresh lime juice on then peppers it with some chili powder.  I loved it!  It was so delicious that I want to replicate it the next time I have a bunch of fruits on me.

I was cast as a maintenance worker, so I was added to one scene cleaning up in the stands.  Our main scene was inside the halls of the dugout.  It was really cool seeing what it looked like and also getting a chance to be on the field.  It's amazing how flat and perfect the field and grass was and what it's like to be inside.

Then it was over and we were wrapped.  I headed home to take a shower then off to Santa Ana to see J.D. for his birthday.  We had some drinks and then I took Jansen home and we watched Hanna.
