Day Four

I was so tired last night that I laid down on the hard wood floor and fell asleep till I noticed people sweeping around me.

We had a really good spaghetti with bolognese sauce for lunch today. One of our vegetarian PA's declared, "I couldn't eat it but it was incredibly mad that I couldn't."

The executive producers were insisting on seeing some dailies. I fought them and lost... I just didn't wanna keep living up to such high standards.

The Bacon Experiment failed miserably. I told all the PA's to start using the term bacon instead of cool or awesome. I threw the word out a few times and people just looked at me like I was crazy. Then Morgan said that a take was sweet and I said, "No, it's bacon." He asked if that was like sweet but I said it's more like savory...

We had eleven extras for our old man insurance party scene tonight. One confirmed alcoholic and one that looks so old his eyes look like their gonna fall out. There was definitely a stench of embalming fluid about him. My two veteran actors Dougald Park and Weston Blakesley had to teach all eleven of them to walla walla.

Barbara Bain is stunning. I'll let you just imagine. More on that later.

I'm exhausted. Tomorrow we're off on a location scout to the offices, grocery store and bar.
