Now, I know that I don’t normally talk about my feels and all of that good business, but I guess that’s a bad thing? At least that’s what I’ve been told, so I guess I could give this a go in hopes of having an answer?
Ever since I came back I’ve been feeling really anxious about like, everything? I’m not even doing anything half the time and my entire being is just “Oh! Better panic!” and I don’t know what to do about that. Hints? Advice? I’ll take anything at this point.

I think the best thing for you to do is find something that you enjoy doing and do it. It’s got to be something that is unrelated to work and does not stress you out. Also, working out is good for anxiety so maybe sign up for a gym or something?  I’ve been boxing lately and I love it!

Open: September 19th, morning.

Emily was on her morning run when she decided that she was going to take a different route. She was so used to following the same routine every morning that lately she didn’t even feel like going out for runs. Granted, Emily knew that taking a break from working out was an option but she figured that she would likely do that in the winter months anyway. For the time being, Los Angeles was still fairly warm. There was something about the fresh air in her lungs that just improved Emily’s mood immediately. 

As she turned the corner, Emily saw someone in the distance. She didn’t think too much of it because there was always someone out and about in the city at any given time of day. Usually when she was out with Chanel, she had to stop to let people pet her at least once on their adventures, but today she was on her own. Her furry companion was at home asleep, much like a lot of the city. As Emily got closer to the person, she figured that she should slow down a bit so that she could easily get out of the way without running into them. 

As Emily slowed down, she took her time to look closer at the person. After a second, she realized that she recognized their face from the Network. Jogging up to the person in question, Emily sent the familiar person a small smile before coming to a stop. “Good morning, I’m surprised to see you this early in the morning. Although, I guess I am always surprised to see anyone being like eight in the morning.” Emily said, letting out a soft chuckle at the person.

Mario and I are taking the evening to celebrate the good news. We have found a surrogate that we think is a wonderful match for our family. I think my worrying is now behind me and I can move on to excitement again. 

Oh my goodness, that is amazing! You guys deserve all of the happiness in the world and I am sure that you will be lovely parents.

Hey good people of The Network. My hooman and I would like to bless you with his adorable face. I’d like to personally introduce myself. I am Banjo. I’m the fluffy adorable one. My man friend, Oliver is the not so fluffy one. He’s very kind and welcoming of new people so that’s enough from me. We love people and can’t wait to see you!

Dogs are adorable, and I already am in love with Banjo. Who could not love that cute face?

What do you like best? Do you like it better when they tell you exactly what they’re wanting out of a scene and character, or do you like the freedom better?
Ain’t that the truth. I’ve known Danny my entire life. Becoming friends was easy when you have a person who just… gets you and plays along with all your shit, and you can play along with theirs. He’s like my brother. 

I do like having a little bit of freedom. It’s nice to feel as though a director trusts me enough to do my job. It’s great to feel as though I am doing a great job with things.

I surely had friends like that growing up. Although, sadly I haven’t really seen any of them in a while. Hopefully I will be able to head back to Seattle for a visit soon. I am just happy that the internet exists so that I can at least see what they are up to.

Definitely not any wiser, believe me, but then again I was never really good at following orders except in my job because it can get me killed otherwise. Plus, you know, the law. Aim for whatever that doesn’t give you limits but allows for all the possibilities.
Image
That’s how I feel about my best friend, Danny. That man always has my back, and thank God for that. If I didn’t have him life would be a certain hell that I don’t even want to imagine.

See, my job is basically listening to one direction after another so following orders is kind of my specialty at this point. Although, sometimes a director does just want for us to do our own thing and express a character how we see it.

Image

It’s great that you have someone you can rely on. Everyone deserves to feel like there is someone in their lives that they can tell everything to and not have to worry. Have you known Danny long?

And that’s fine, let em have expectations for you. It’s just don’t let it make you feel bad if you don’t meet those expectations. I get it, though. I’m an only child, and my parents wanted me to do a lot of things, and for a long time I was nothing but a disappointment because I was a little ass. I finally learned my lesson, and made a change and followed my own path. I made them proud in the end. As for needing to know your limit… don’t set a limit. Set the bar high, and you always have goals to aim for. If you limit yourself you could be preventing yourself from doing something better than you thought possible.
Yeah, they were really nice last I remember. That’s good, that you’ve got nice people to give you a hand whenever you need. It’s important to have someone you can count on around here that’s not family. 

See, you seem to be a lot wiser than me. I’ve always been just used to doing what people have told me too. It wasn’t until recently that I even learned that you can’t please everyone. There is that expression about aiming for the moon, and landing in the stars. Perhaps that is what I have to start doing.

It’s just great to know that when all of fails, someone in this city will always have my back.

Finally back in LA for the foreseeable future. Currently lazing out in the sun in @thane-watson‘s garden while I browse the internet for houses. I know there’s a few people I already need to make plans with but who wants to hang out this week?

Welcome back to Los Angeles. I hope that you have some time to just relax and enjoy the nice weather that we have been having. Are you having any luck finding a house?

A long week of little sleep has left me a little frazzled. Between the boxes, the emails and the needles, I’m in need of some distraction. Tell me about your favourite poem?

Oh wow, it sounds like you’ve been pretty busy. Don’t forget to take care of yourself, because mental and physical health are both important.

I am not sure if I have a favorite poem but I recently read one by Elizabeth Bishop that I liked. It was about a waiting room.

No, I don’t suppose it is for anyone.

That’s good that at least they’re trying. Just don’t feel like you have to live up to their expectations for you. If they’re trying to understand where you’re coming from, then at least that probably means they’ll be happy for you no matter what your future holds. At least, I hope. I’m glad you’ve had luck with the people you’ve met on the Network Everyone deserves some good friends and support. 

I think my parents are always going to have expectations for me. As an only child I think part of me is always going to feel like I need to please them. I guess I just need to know where my limit is I guess.

The  Cartwrights are probably my favorite people on the planet honestly. They are all so kind, and always willing to help out. It’s wonderful.

Rainy Days // Self-para

Emily could not help but look out the window as the rain was falling down. There was something about it that made her just think about all of the stuff that was going on in her life. Sure her acting career was going well, but that didn’t mean that everything was going on in her life was happy. More often than not she was feeling lonely lately. Even though there were people that she talked to on the Network a lot, it wasn’t often that she socialized in real life.

The rain always seemed to make Emily sad, and she wasn’t sure why. Perhaps it was the gloominess or perhaps it was the fact that it always made her exhausted, Emily had no idea. Although, she did know that she wasn’t the only one that got depressed when it was raining so perhaps it had everything to do with the weather and nothing to do with her. Either way, Emily just wished that the sun would come out so she could continue on with her normal day. Since it had been raining since she had woken up, she hadn’t even been able to go on her normal run.

Letting out a soft sigh, Emily moved away from the window. Logically she knew that looking out the window wasn’t going to go her any good, so she might as well at least try to do something productive. Moving into her kitchen, she sat down at the table in front of a large stack of unread scripts. Emily just wanted to escape to another world for a while, and she figured that reading was the best way to do so. In reality Emily would rather take a nap, but the logical part of her brain told her that sleeping too much was unhealthy, and lately she’d slept a lot.
