August 9

Not a typical day for me.  Worked my 4:30-9:30am shift, came home to attempt a quick nap, then drove 2 hours north to spend the rest of my day on set.  This got moved a day earlier, so I had to adapt.  Because they were filming another scene earlier in the day, we had a to do a lot of 'hurry up and wait'.  My scene takes place in 1991, and they had already fitted me in wardrobe on a previous day, so next was hair and makeup.  I love not having to worry about my wardrobe, in addition to getting pampered by hair and makeup.  And big hair is always fun!  Filming was complete at 11:45pm and then the 2-hour drive home.  That was rough.  Because I was so exhausted, I had to stop at a rest-stop and take a short nap.  Got home at 2am.  23 hours of activity.  Needless to say, I am sleeping for as long as I can in the morning.
