What do you do? ok. next.

I went out to a few nice bars the other night, we started off drinking margaritas, which i am now a pro at making :) and drinking!
after feeling a little on the merry side we decided to venture onto the first bar. it was then i realised everyone just asks, 'what do you do?' oh I'm just over from Australia..trying to get a job..I don't say it exactly like that but that's what i feel like the other person is hearing because if you aren't a producer or casting director or director they really don't want to know you! you can't take the conversation any further. the next thing you know they are talking to the guy with the square glasses or the beautiful girls..

we went onto the 2nd bar, i think it was call, 'Roger Bar' or something like that. we had to wait outside for a little bit because they where 'over capacity'. next minute a group of vip members of LA, walk straight in, was funny to see!
so we where waiting at the bar for a drink and someone was knocking into me, it took me a while to register it was Jesse McCartney! i would have liked one of his songs to come on at this time. he is tall! i never knew..
later on Kevin Connolly was holding his blackberry (everyone has one in LA, i left mine in australia - error!) in a way he was taking a picture. i was confused and he must have seen the confusion on my face. He told me he was trying to send a message because there was no coverage where he was sitting.
so my first night out in hollywood was cool bit of celeb sightings and have learnt if people ask what you do straight away just say you are a casting director.
