BONES #3
I was trying to get out of here by 6AM for a 7AM call time in Whittier, but I was running late. I called the call time change box to see if there was a change and indeed there was. It was pushed back 30 minutes. So I lagged a little and filled out my EDD form. By the time I left, it was 6:45A and I started to stress. I started to stress more when I noticed major traffic on the 60, but it was pre-mature because it was just a little accident. When I passed it, it was clear sailing and I got to Whittier with about ten minutes to spare.
The base camp was at a former correctional facility for juveniles, but it had been closed down long ago and was said to have been destined for redevelopment in the next month. I had breakfast then we got our vouchers and headed to wardrobe. They liked my suit so I was good to go.
The scene was fairly simple. I had a feeling we only had that one scene when I heard that there was a jail scene being shot in the afternoon. Our scene was in front of a chateau and Bones pretends to have a pregnant woman in the car just to get a room. But the chateau and the rooms are all full, so it takes a little convincing (with the fake pregnant woman pretending to go through labor and just push the baby out in front of the chateau.) Normally, it wouldn't matter, but since we are paying guests who are there for a wine event, the guy running the place doesn't want to bother us. So he sends them out to a spare room.
After shooting the scene, we spent a little time in holding where I got to chat about Christianity with Anna Lia who I had worked on Hawthorne before. She didn't witness to me then, but this time, she was able to since I opened the topic up by asking what book she was reading in the bible she was studying.
It was very interesting to speak to Anna Lia because although she has her opinions, she isn't one to try ramming her beliefs down your throat. She was open to answering questions I had and it was fun to speculate and discuss things with her.
Before we knew it, we were wrapped. I thought about going straight to LA, but instead, I drove home to rest and wait for the SAG Holiday event. So I took a nice afternoon nap until Janet called. We made plans for me to pick her up around 7:15P.
But when I left to pick her up, there was big time traffic on the 10. Apparently, the tanker that had caused a fire on the 60 diverted all traffic to the 10 so that was what I was caught in. So I told Janet I was late and got there about 7:40P.
When we got to the SAG building, the party was pretty much what I expected. It wasn't fancy at all and everything took place inside the lobby. There was food that was served, but it really wasn't very good. Oddly, as Janet said, it reminded her of a homeless shelter because of all the types of people that were there. I noticed there were a lot of old people and it made me wonder who decided to show up to this thing? One thing was certain - it definitely did not have any A-list stars and I would have been shocked to see anyone like that show up. A bit disappointing, but it was what it was.
Afterward, we went back to her place so I could see Monkey, her new cat from the hood. Dulce and Monkey immediately hid when she opened the door while Benjamin was there to great us. He liked the Angry Birds wand I got him and we played for awhile, but I was really more interested in getting Dulce and Monkey to play. Unfortunately, they didn't, so I guess it will take more research to figure out what they need to become more social. We also got to build her new cat tree that I'm sure the cats will like. I just wonder if they will all climb it or if one of them will be the king.
