nature's beauty...

Took this on the way to Palm Desert over Easter...thought i'd share. The weather looks the same today but unfortunately, minus the rainbow!! Sure wish it'd clear up seeing as Memorial Day is coming up here in a few days...isn't that the official start of summer? Sheesh.

"The Light in the Piazza"

If you want to see a great Broadway show the next time you're in NYC...go check out "The Light in the Piazza" starring my boyfriend's sis as the lead. Katie got the job RIGHT out of college...in fact, she graduated this past December and has been in the show since October or so. So with that said...you KNOW she's good to be able to STAR in a Broadway show the first time out.

Me in NYC

Was TRYING to post this as my main pic but I seem to be computer illiterate! lol Sooo...y'all get to see a pic of me from January here in BOLD! It was taken after eating the BEST sushi ever, in a cab (the picture was taken in the cab, not the eating of the fishies) on the way to see Chris's sister, Katie, as the Clara in "The light in the Piazza."

Go see "AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH"

Ok...so here's my "do-gooder" move for the week: Go see...in fact RUN to the theater to see..."An Inconvenient Truth" when it comes to a theater near you. It comes out in select theaters in NYC and LA May 24th and then nation-wide thereafter.

I have a few reasons why I want you to go and see the film...

1) I worked on the thing last fall and it was incredibly draining physically and mentally so my blood, sweat and tears are involved here people!! I had the opportunity to operate camera for the movie...in fact, WHEN you go and see it...ALL the close-up shots of Al Gore during his presentation on Global Warming (which is basically the whole movie, interjected by various pieces) are MINE! Woo hoo!! Pat on the back here. Never been so proud of my work. Chris and I got to go to the cast and crew screening the other night and I was pleasantly shocked at how well the documentary turned out! My shots are in about %50 plus of the movie which is a pretty big deal for me considering I primarily work in television.

2) You also get to see my name in the credits!! Ok...so that kind of goes with number one, but it's still exciting to see your name on the big screen...

3) The film...and this is THE MOST IMPORTANT PART...concerns the environment and what we're doing to it. Global Warming is a REAL and scary thing and we need to be more aware of what we are doing to our planet. We also need to be doing something about it. In fact...after seeing this movie, you'll wonder why the HELL it's not first and foremost on EVERYONE'S mind.

4) The Film arms you with the knowledge of what IS happening and what NEEDS to happen.

5) 5% of the proceeds are going to an organization whose primary concern is the planet and slowing the warming process. The film guarantees a $500k minimum donation to the fund.

6) You get to see a completely different side of Al Gore...not the guy who lost the presidency and not even a man who MIGHT run for the presidency again...but a man who is deeply concerned for the future of this planet. A man who really cares...

Anyway...I think it's an awesome cause and I am VERY proud that I hahad a hand it getting it to the screen for the masses. You can go to the website and check for screenings in your area as well as to pledge to see it, to give back to society...you can even read up on HOW you can contribute in a good way to ensure our planet's good health.
