News and booze!

I went away for a few weeks to visit my boyfriend's family and go on a cruise. It was lots of fun, except when I got sea sick on land for four days and almost threw up in an aquarium. I am so done with touching sting rays.

Then, when I got back last week, blogger was down, and I almost threw up on it too.

Here's what's new with me:

My calendar is almost done and will be sent to the printer tomorrow or Friday.

I'm working on a public access show, as you've seen by the Jersey City videos I've posted. When I finish my calendar, I'll shoot some real sketches (not just Jersey City ones), and the show should be ready in January, and I'll do a screening at a BabyHole. On a side note, book me at your show. I need to push these calendars!

In January, I'll start researching my ghost tour again. If you have a location you'd like me to investigate, let me know. Jersey City Ghost Tour starts in March, when the weather gets nicer. I hope to do a haunted pub crawl too. Let me know if your bar is haunted.

I'm a little entrepreneur!

Steve Fulop Interview

This is the shortest version of the Steve Fulop interview. Unfortunately, I had to omit a lot of stuff because I had a lot of technical difficulties with it and it took a long time, so a lot of the interview was out dated.

I'll probably use a longer version of the interview cut into segments for the public access show.

My videos

Barack Obama won the election last night, but more importantly, last night at the bar, someone asked me if I was trying to get famous with these videos that I'm making.

Well, I'm not trying to get famous. I'm trying to get a job.

I'm already famous in Jersey City (duh).

If you like my videos, please forward them to your friends and comment on them. I also have them on Youtube. I personally hate putting things on Youtube (though I love watching it). Vimeo is much better.

And also, if you like my videos, please note that I write and produce and edit everything in them, except for the interviews. I force my boyfriend to work the camera, but I pretty much do everything, so hire me.

Also, last night, someone told me that I should run for Mayor. I would, but I don't have enough money. Unless you hire me, so I can save some.
