Road Head...oof.

Hey all-

It's Jane here and I'm thisclose to not blogging cuz I'm so beat! So far so good on the roadie. But like any road trip there have been some speed bumps...bigguns in this case....and here is where the title of this post comes in.

A couple (two, three?) days ago while driving the looooong drive to Ashland, OR for the first leg of my trip I bought a bottle of water and started to walk out of the food mart without it and the cashier hollered at me not to forget it, I walked back over to him and said, "sorry, I've been driving all day. Ya know...road head..." I MEANT "road brain" but my road brain made me say "road head." It's the general brain melt one gets after staring at the road for too many hours in a row.

Some examples of road head thus far:

*Switching cars (there are two) in Ashland without letting me know and taking my headshot and resume in the car heading to California two hours before my big audition. Auditors= very understanding. Audition=meh.

*Generally stupid jokes (generally made by me).

*Misplacing $300 in cash. "Hey guys, while we were setting up the shoot, I kinda just threw this envelope with $300 in it up there...do you see it?" "ummmm....check the fire, did we burn it?" (It was found)

*Plugging in a cell phone on the side of a gas station and leaving it there. (It was retrieved)

*In getting set up for shots, it takes at least three of us four trips each to the car b/c we constantly forget what we're going back for.

*Writing these last few items are a perfect example of road head, I don't think they are particulary articulate or clear at all!

But haven't written all that, we have been doing incredibly well. We've seen some amazing scenery and gotten some incredible shots...in fact we are watching some daily stuff as I write and it looks like a real movie! It looks really good, wow! Nice job us!

Good night nurse. I gots to sleep soon. I think MJ might post some pics.

xs for now,
Team awesome
