Here I am again....the most random blogger ever. I am standing on a dangerous edge, falling seems more and more certain. I struggle to hold on but my hands are slipping and my grip is going to fail. In moments like this, you think about all the things that you fight to hold on for. The people you love, the people that love you. You think about the life god has given you and you think about how you have lived that life. You look at all the good over a lifetime and all the bad things you have done. You would give anything to undue the bad, but you have to accept that you cannot.

I continue to fight to hold on for those who love me and those that I love.

God I suck at updating my blog. I keep saying I am going to try and do a better job of writing.

Anyways, I have a big summer coming up. I just agreed to play a lead role in an indy film called Roundabout American. The character is going to be a blast to play. I am starting the process of cutting weight and toning up for the role which is a first. I think this is the type of role that I need to play in order to reach a new level in my acting career.

I also agreed to play a main character on an awesome new web series called Prince of Thieves. I will play a modern day version of Little John. I cannot tell you how much fun this series is going to be to shoot. I love my fellow cast members and the director / producer is a great guy. Overall a very busy summer ahead for me.

Thanks for checking in

And I am back! Hope anyone who stops by to read this is doing well. Things are going okay in my world. Lots of highs and lows...I am just trying to maintain a happy center.

Acting-wise things are really slow. I finished a great play that ran from Jan - March called Leaving Iowa. I was an understudy but I actually got to go on so it was a blast. Today I had my first commercial audition at O'Connor Casting since last July. It felt nice to get in that office again and see the great people they have working there.

I see Val now and then, things are still really cold, so I avoid it as much as I can.

Thanks for reading my posts, I know I such at updating this thing and I promise to try and do a better job.

As 2010 is winding down, I have so much to be thankful for. I am thankful that I was able to work on three movies this year, and really made giant strides in my acting career. I am thankful that I have some really good friends who have supported me thru all my ups and downs. I have had plenty of both over the last 3 years. I am thankful that I have developed a great friendship with my girl Molly. She is such a great rock of support, and funny as hell. I am thankful for my friend Terry Tackett. I am so proud that he has taken the big step and gotten engaged to an awesome woman. I am thankful that I have roommates that I like and get along with. I am thankful for the health of my family. I am thankful that Val has really moved on with her life and appears to be doing great.


Mostly I am thankful that I am still here, still chasing the dream, and still full of hope. Thank you 2010! Can't wait to see what 2011 holds for all of us.

Hello world wide web, hope things are well for those reading this. I am getting ready to go to FL for a week to visit my family. I haven't seen them is SOOOO long, and I miss the shit out of them.

TGIF

I am so glad it's Friday. This has been a long week full of ups and downs. I had a cyst removed from my stomach last week and this week I felt SO much better. It's amazing how something so small can cause so much pain.

Also this week I booked a fun part on a horror film. I love getting a call from my agent telling me that I got the job. I will be shooting this one in Green Bay and it should be a blast. I also got to audition for two different tv shows in offices that I don't get into that often, so overall this week has kicked ass.

Greetings blog readers. I hope that you are well and enjoying a great fall. Things are kind of blah for me right now. On the plus side I have had some great dates lately and it has felt nice to get out and act like a human again. I have come to realize that I am better in a relationship than out of one. Now I don't need someone, in fact I tend to enjoy a good amount of alone time now and then. But I miss knowing that someone is thinking about me, I miss the feeling of having someone to cuddle with on a cold Friday night, I miss that feeling of waking up on a Sunday morning with a special someone and just being silly.

I guess I am saying that I am lonely. Does that make me weak? Maybe, but I can live with that. Now I am not going to rush out and try to force myself into a relationship. I guess for the first time in a long time, my heart is really ready to try this whole dating thing again. I am open to it, pray for it, and hope to find it.
