Deal Or No Deal

Today, I am working for TV GUIDE CHANNEL. Did I mention that I'm doing that? Yes, I did and today is my first shoot on location - on the DEAL OR NO DEAL set! Very exciting. This one contestant is super close to winning, and no I'm not wearing mismatching socks today. Actually, I'm not wearing ANY socks today! Ha ha!

Now allow me to talk about this picture. I go into the women's restroom with the simple wish of using it, and low and behold, my eyes are met with this curious sign. Can you read it? 'Please put toilet paper into the toilet. Not on the floor.' Now sure this is the lobby bathroom many of the audience uses while watching the show/waiting to watch the show, but huh? I thought the sign was going to read 'no hand towels' but no toilet paper on the floor? Are we savages who only put toilet paper into the toilet when we're at home? Do audience wranglers go deep into the woods and bring out only feral adults to be a part of the studio audience? Let's ponder....

I have to admit that I was traveling with some producers from MTV when I worked for OVERDRIVE, and I don't remember how we started talking about this, but sometimes while staying in hotels, I prefer kleenex to toilet paper and am wasteful with the towels. Foreign private pad, different antics! The producer, who I adored, admitted that when he stays in hotels, he pees in the sink instead of the toilet. Whaaaaaaa?! I hoped it was only #1. He then proceeded to say he doesn't do it at home, just in hotels. From that point on, I never put anything into my hotel sinks.

So yes, I guess we all go a little savage when we are in unfamiliar bathrooms. Oh how the world has changed...

TV Guide Channel

today was my first day on my 'try-out' week with TV Guide Channel. Most of you should get it in your homes...I will be a reporter for Hollywood 411, their flagship hour long daily entertainment news show.

I would make this more interesting, but really, it's 1 am and i am exhausted. but today was the day that i decided to do something special. what you ask is making me wake up and take notice? well, today was the day that i was looking for socks and noticed more than 5 cute little dudes missing their colorful animal clad mates. you see, for many years i was not allowed to have a pet, so i decided to put as many animals on my socks as possible, in the most fluorescent colors as possible. fasts forward a few years later, and i have many a miss matched sock, sad as it stays in my drawer because it can't be worn with its match. well i decided today is the day that i say f-you conventions of American society! i will wear my socks mismatched and all! each sock will live out its life as a full, loved, and well worn sock whether its match has pigs, giraffes, cats, dogs, or monkeys. take that Mr. Bush.

i was gonna take a pic and post it, but my phone died. damn my blackberry.

Portland

I left Hawaii to come up to brisk Portland to shoot a very fun and funny video for INTEL. I play the 'dream girl' that is a savvy tech scheel chick who helps a down and out sales rep figure out how to rock the world electronics by explaining the benefits of next-gen 45-nanometer technology available in quad-core Intel Core 2 processors. Say that 5 times fast! It is a pretty funny script where my partner in crime, a guy, has to dress up as a fairy, professor, and a bunch of other stuff. The funny part was his lips got so stained by the lipstick he was made to wear, he was rouging up all the shots! Hysterical!

Anyhow, as a young child, my parents spent our first years in the states building a life in Portland, and this is where my brother, Hong, was born. When I mentioned to my mom that I was in the northwest portion of the cityn she asked me if it was by a bridge. Turns out we lived close to the bridge and she crossed that bridge daily to go to work. Although getting to Portland wasn't the easiest of tasks from Hololulu, did I mention the excrutiating travel time of 28 hours?!, being here makes me want to explore my roots. Turns out I can discover a little more with just a 2 hour plane ride!

Forgetting Sarah Marshall

I must report that I am currently on the noerth shore in HawaiiN happily sitting outisde on my hotel room balcony, and this is my view. Now what, pretell, brings little ol' CLL out here? Universal pictures decided to hold the press junket for their new Judd Apatow movie out here. The gods got together, aligned the heavens, blessed the supernovas, and called travel agents to say, 'get that crazy girl out there! Her ass needs a tan.' See they're always watching out for my epidermis. If you look closely at the picture, you'll see a white sheet where the coast meets sand and rock, and that is the crew set up to do the shoots for the press. I think it'd be kinda funny to be vacationing here with all these cameras, crew, and crazy ladies who come to hawaii to put on full faces of make-up just to go outside...like myself. Hey, I can at least say it's work related right? All right, I'll shut my face. Anything in hawaii is not work, it is a gift from the heavens. Kind of like this movie. It is a gift, a laughter filled gift from the raunchy heavens that brought you '40 year old virgin' and 'Knocked Up'. Peace out! And be ready for some good full frontal time. And not of me. Of Jason Segel. Delicious!
