I'm going to my sister's for the weekend. Last time I was there they had a computer, but just in case I wanted to let you all know I'd be back on Sunday. I'll try and post in the morning before I go if I can.
The Weekend
- Thread starter Clara Oswald
- Start date
Okay, so here's what's going on with me. I've gotten a job in LA that starts Monday, so I spent all day yesterday trying to find a place to live and I actually did lol. So I'm flying out there Saturday. I emailed my friend who's apartment I'm staying in, asking about the internet, but he hasn't had a chance to email me back. So I don't know if I'll have it on Saturday when I get there or if I'll have to get it. I'm hoping there's at least a cafe I can go to with wireless or something.
Congrats on your job, Vil!! That's so amazing, I can't believe you get to live in LA you lucky whore. lol I hope all runs smoothly with your move and good luck with your new job. You gotta keep me updated on the movies you're going to be working on!

Thanks This is just a tv miniseries
I found out that I *should* have wireless internet when I get there, but there is a Starbuck's apparently 3 blocks away if I get in a jam. I will not be on long tonight as I have to leave at 6:45am and still have to finish packing. But I will try and check the Six again before I go to bed to see if I've gotten a "cue" from Harbinger Guess I should have posted that in OOC. Oh well lol!

im late as hell, somehow i missed this thread.
wow, Vil...you're really on your way arent you? Congratulations! this is fantastic! :nod:
i hate to ask, but i AM wondering, does this mean that you may have to leave the board? I imagine that you may become very busy at some point.

I certainly hope not. But I totally understand if you want to remove me from activities (mod/The Six).
I was told by my friend whose apartment I'm staying in that there was wireless, but there's not. So right now I'm at Starbuck's paying $6/hour. Which I can't keep doing. So I'm trying to figure something out. Hopefully I'll be able to sneak some time during work but I won't know until I start Tuesday how it's set up.
This job goes to July 23, then there's a break and then another month of filming which I guess is contingent on whether they re-hire me. Assuming there's no actor's strike. If there is, I'll probably be home in Pittsburgh. But if I'm still here after that second month I'll most likely move into my own place, because I can't deal with no internet access, and I can't get mail at this place, and there's no air conditioning lol. Plus it's kind of weird staying in someone else's apartment with all their stuff and living out of a suitcase.
So that long winded answer basically adds up to, I don't know. I hadn't planned on leaving. This job should be in no way as intensive as the last one. That was a really tough shoot and locations are always a different animal than when you film at home, or so I'm told.
Best case scenario, I get my friend to re-activate his landline so I can use dialup. Fingers crossed he agrees to do that lol

Yeah, I would hate to see you leave Kris. Hopefully you'll get some internet access soon, but if you don't, we'll figure something out. No worries.

So the update is this lol. No go on the dialup. I found some free wifi places, including the Denny's across the street from me lol. Now I just have to figure out something to order there that's cheap and non-fattening so I can use it lol. I'm going to pull into the parking lot on my way home and see if I can connect from outside. LOL!
I also might try taking my computer to work and trying to use it there. I don't really have down time in my job in the sense that I can get called on at any time (even while I'm at lunch) so it's a little difficult. I start work at 6am tomorrow (yikes) and since it's the first day I probably won't bring it with me. But I should be able to get the lay of the land a little bit and see how late I'll generally be working. Hopefully since I'm first in I'll be first out, but who knows. So it will probably be tomorrow night before I can get on the board.
Oh good news though - I switched us to a bigger hosting account so the bandwith issue should go away now.
Spells, do you want me to have the technical emails (like the database error emails) sent to your email instead of mine so you can see why the site goes down if it does? Usually they just need to restart the server or occasionally we reach the maximum amount of connections to the database. I had them increase that amount though so it hasn't happened in a while.
