Latin DVD

So on Saturday I was thinking I only had a table read from 1-3pm so I asked my sister to work for me doing a demo promo for Oil Olay at a Sam's Club in Santa Clarita so I was going to get a ride to the read so I could go and my sister would borrow my car. One thing after another I had a dance gig for a Latin Artist Flex from 5-7pm then a lawyer I work for wanted me to pass out flyers at a few Lofts downtown. I said I could only do it in the morning. Then I was needed to help choregraph girls for this Latin DVD and that was going to be an all day thing but I had my table read. That was the whole big important thing for me. SO I ended up renting a car Friday night cause I had to get everything done on Saturday.

The plan was to rent a car for the day so I can get all my work done and my sister was going to take my car so she can work for me as well. Of course she was going to have that check when it came. I just had already committed and didn't want to back out and she could use the cash.

Also the only place I could rent a car after hours was at the airport so my and my sister drove down to Hertz like 10pm and of all places I run into an old friend from High School and he really hooked it up for me. I got the dopest car, made me want another car and I really thought I liked my car but I missed having leather seats that warmed up and real power when I drove. It was the Volvo from Twilight for anyone that really liked that movie.

Anyways the next day went really good, early morning meet up with lawyer got flyers to pass out. Got through the front door of Lofts when it had security. The set was around the corner from Lofts downtown and meet up with Lorena to go over chorography even though we didn't have that much time for me to have it down at all. I was gonna have to wing it. Left to the table read, got there barely on time and the read was a little shakey for me at first then it got good, really good. I felt the writer/director knew I made the character come to life. Left the table read on time got food and went back to set.

Had to wing the choreography with the girls that mind you can't dance. It's a booty shake DVD so I was doing to much for them and by the time the director called us to set. I had to change everything, I had to dance the whole time screaming 5,6,7,8....1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 over and over and over. My throat was so raw and sore by the end of the night. I know the girls were tired dropping it like it's Hot too. I will just say the director was an intresting piece of work. I never got a chance to walk away for water or a pee break.

Then when we finally got done with the first song I was looking for my computer and I couldn't believe I couldn't find it anywhere nor my bag with my car rental keys. I was livid. I didn't really flip out but I was cursing, when I normally wouldn't be. For about 3hours we couldn't find them they were gone. I had to call Hertz and they said the car had to be towed.... NoOOOO! that means I had to pay for it. I got the car towed and watch 30min later this dude takes me over the the bar behind the Redbull machine Behind a box where my bag and computer was. I couldn't believe it. At least I found it but I was already tired but the stress that put me through was way too much. I was so done by Sunday Morning for Mothers Day. Busy Busy BUsy!
