Quick update
Aug 28, 2006

Several people have written to me lately expressing concern because they haven?t heard from me for so long. Note that they think a month is a long time for me. It?s all relative. I suspect that there are other people who don?t think anything about it.



Anyway, here?s a quick update so anyone who is prone to worry won?t do that and so everyone will know the most significant things that have taken my time, attention, and energy over the past month.



First, I was called to work in ?Comanche Moon,? the prequel to ?Lonesome Dove.? It will be a miniseries (3 episodes, I think) on CBS and will be shown this fall (I?ve heard November). Between May 11 and this past Friday, June 2, I?ve worked 14 days on the film, 11 of them between 10 and 14 hours per day (which is usual in the film industry). Many days I?d get home, download e-mail and immediately fall into bed so I could sleep a few hours before I had to get up to make it to early morning (as early as 4:30 and usually around 5:30) calls. I have lots of interesting stories to tell. I?ll be writing more soon in my acting blog if you?d like to read about them. I?ll let you know when those entries are posted.



On weekdays I wasn?t working in the film, I substitute taught ? until the school year ended on May 25. Imagine being a substitute teacher on the last day of school with 8th graders. They were bouncing off the walls and beyond ready to not be there any longer.



Early in May I learned that my apartment mate and his partner were planning to move in together the first of June, so I had to move, too. Consequently, I spent a lot of time looking for a place, packing, and, as my former wife would have said, schlepping all my stuff out of my old place and into my new one. The end of May was especially joyous when I worked in the film all day and then moved afterwards and, finally on May 31, put the last load in my car at 4 a.m. before I went to the set.



On top of all of that, my trigeminal neuralgia has returned. So, unfortunately, it was just in remission rather than healed. Fortunately, however, it isn?t as severe as it was the previous episodes. Nevertheless, it has interfered with living my life normally. It seems to be worst, for some reason, during the night. Consequently, it?s been waking me up and keeping me awake quite a bit. I?ve been losing a lot of sleep, as you can probably imagine.



There?s more, but this is enough for now. I?m sure you must get the idea why I haven?t been writing more lately.



Namaste,

Michael
