My Movie Star Life 05/04/2010
Every day I have to bug my kids to clean this:  So I can go ahead and make this bed (which matches very nicely with my sister-in-law's childhood teenage furniture. All we need is a John Hughes movie and we're good to go.  Then I do dishes at a sink that's been having nightly sex with a jack hammer.  And fold the laundry that my husband daily "line dries" (on my patio furniture) in an effort to save five cents which we won't be spending on lunches out....  Which are really no big deal because at least once a month they shoot a movie on our street at someone else's perfect house (which they are able to make perfect due to all the money they are making having movies shot there) and craft service (the food people) set up a fancy bbq on the other neighbor's lawn next door.  Except I'm never invited to eat there. But that's okay. While I"m mopping my floor I can smell the teryaki. Mixed with Pine Sol and Yuban it's quite lovely!  I always get the stink eye from some big fancy grip or director for coming off like a tourist ON MY OWN FRONT LAWN when really all I want to do is back the bleep out of my driveway without going head first into the dressing room truck. But who cares. Because I have the best life ever. I wouldn't give up my leading lady....  Or on set comedian...  For all the house bookings in Hollywood. Though I'd appreciate if they'd clean their rooms a bit more. Perhaps I should start screaming "I need a TAMPON!!!!!!!!!" during their next shoot. The director would have to pay me off, then I could pay a maid and a cook to come weekly - make that daily - to my house - for a year. I wouldn't feel bad at all. It's the biz, baby. PS: My husband is mindful of our pennies since we are brats and actually own a cabin also. It's just easier to be snarky sometimes. I love you, baby. CommentsStacey 05/05/2010 07:22
LOVE the pics! Your house is so charming. You can tell your hubby that it costs about 50 cents per hour to run a dryer (that's what THIS penny-pincher came up with, anyway), so totally worth the $15/month for the convenience, IMO (besides that, the chickens would crap on our clothes and then the cows would eat them if we left them outside to dry here, so not really economical for us). phd in yogurtry 05/05/2010 20:18
so long as he's the one doing the hanging, it's all good. which is quite the opposite of my loving man. he wont' even hang a clothes line for me. thinks they're a waste of time. I've gotten by 10 yrs without one so I guess it's not a necessity but still, there are those blankets and sweaters that can't go into the dryer.
