Guest guest Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Hi, and Wow! what a weekend I've had. Grand daughter wanted to try out for a TV part, in NYC, she has no experience, but that is what they wanted. So I drove her and my daughter to Long Island, outside NYC, where we stayed with my sister, and Sun. they took the train back into NYC for the interview. We were supposed to leave that night, to be here Mon. morning, but Jessie got a call back, meaning she had to go in again on Mon. at 3, and we would leave from there to come home. Any of you ever drive in NYC traffic? And try and leave during traffic hour?? Let me just say, it is an experience! We got a ticket for parking in a bus stop, that was only $115.00. Then we found a parking lot that was only $15.00 for the first hour and $20.00 for the second. We were there 70 min., cost $20.00 I doubt that Jessie got the part , there were hundreds of people applying, but i will say, this weekend was an experience. Did any of you ever see the show " skins " ? I never did but it is quite racey from what I have been told. The part they gave her, and this is improv, was that of a young anorexic, bulimic, nymphomaniac !!! Now I wonder who thinks of these parts! And how does one make up this role on the spur of the moment!! Especially at age 18 ? Anyway, I drove the last 8 hours, got home at 1 am today, and I am going to miss my lab apt. as I am too tired to make it. Anyway, that was my weekend, did any of you have more fun than that? Long Island is a 500 mile drive from my house, I feel like my butt is glued to the car seat!! You all have a great week, and welcome to the newbies, this is a great site. Bobby ps I don't care where you have a get together, or reunion, Las Vegas sounds good to me, but then any place sounds good to me. We sure have a lot of Californians on this site!! a ( Bobby ) Doyle, dob 12/17/29 Brecksville, Ohio, USA DX 5/1995 Interferon 9 weeks/Hydroxyurea 5 years o2/2000 to 06/2002 Gleevec trial, OHSU 06/2002 Gleevec/Trisenox Trial, OHSU 06/2003 Gleevec/Zarnestra Trial, OHSU 04/2004 Sprycel Trial, MDACC, CCR in 10 months 04/2008 XL228 Trial, U of Mich.
