Memory keeps playing in my head

As a child I remember eating frozen jelly doughnuts at my grandparents house. 

Well, we didn't eat them until we had cooked them in the toaster oven first.

They were warm and crispy on the outside and HOT LAVA inside but they were awesome. 

I remember going to the store (I believe it was Lucky's) and my grandpa pulling them from the freezer bin. 

I'd eat mine, while watching Hong Kong Phooey and the Godzilla cartoon, with a dessert fork that had two tines that came together like a V in the middle (it always reminded me of a sleestak's hand).

It's a good memory. I feel warm and safe when I go there. 

My grandfather passed away recently. I am going to miss him.  

LAST DAY OF SCHOOL

Well folks. Assuming the two units finish everything on the schedule. And assuming that nothing accidentally goes through the x-ray machine at the airport. And nothing has to be re-shot next week after everything clears the lab...

Today is the last day of shooting on Season Four of LOST. (Whew!) We made it.

That last post was funny

but it was also very true. 

I'd take a picture but... no I wouldn't.

No one ever says

I mention "garden" a lot.

I do. 

By the way I stepped in poop working in my garden this morning.

Do I really

mention poop a lot?

(Oh crap I just did it again.)

(Wait. Does "crap" count?)

(Oh crap.)

I'm kinda sick

to my stomach right now. 

Someone just showed me a video of a toilet with poop in it that would not go down. And then the steps taken to finally get it to flush.

But I am torn. I don't know what disturbs me the most about what just happened.

The fact that I just saw a stranger's fecal matter in a toilet.

Or the fact that this video was from 2002! The person showing this too me (Laughing the whole time I might add) has kept this moment or posterity. 

And it's not even her own poop. (That's right I said HER)

I mean sometimes I can see a sense of pride that come from a particularly special "movement" or maybe if it was something one of your kid's did that was especially cute. 

But this was a grown up's. And it was gross.

Man this door is cool

One of my favorite set pieces of this season is the secret door inside the secret room. And it's just so cool to have an Indiana Jones door the same time Crystal Skull comes out.

I haven't posted in a while. I've been crazy busy with the show, shooting six day weeks and all. But I'll try to pick things up.
