I don’t blog much about my life as an actor because lately there hasn’t been much to blog about. I am carrying a bunch of extra weight and I don’t really like going on auditions at this weight. It’s one thing to feel heavy around “regular” people, but actors can be really skinny and there are already so many reasons to be insecure that I really don’t need to be the “biggest” person in the room.
In the last few days, I’ve gotten two auditions and as much as I wanted to turn them down I just couldn’t justify giving in to my insecurities. They are both for SAG national commercials and since my family is not doing well financially it would really make a world of difference if I booked that kind of a gig. So I put my doubts aside, slathered on some make-up, and put on whatever fit.
It turns out I got a check availability for one of them! For those of you who don’t act that means that I’m on the short list for booking the commercial. It’s not mine, but it means I’m a finalist. Even if I don’t get it, it’s good for my ego right now. But if I do get it, it’s really good for my family.
I really believe in the power of positive thought. If you are reading this, could you kindly take a moment and wish me luck? Could you ask the universe to bless me with this opportunity? I would truly appreciate it.
Thank you!

Good luck, I hope you get it! Good for you going to the audution anyways! Sometimes I think we are the only ones worried about how much we weigh. By going and being a finalist, I'm sure you proved that to yourself!!!
