Day 3 -- Monday, August 6
Back to the grind. I technically had Friday "off." Some call it a "vacation day." I don't get many of those. Unemployed days, sure, I get a ton of days where I am out-of-work. But vacation days are few and far between.
I returned to work today with one last moment to shoot -- my departure from the hospital. I got to work at 9am, went to make-up, got into my wardrobe and they were immediately ready for me. That's unheard of. No waiting around, no phone/dressing-room time. It was too good to be true.
The scene was a good-sized one so it took most of the morning. I had my departure moment late in the morning. I think it went well. They tried to add a little exit monologue for me but I don't know if it will make the final cut. And then Will was off.
I stayed until lunch and had a final meal with Sarah and writer Janae Bakken, who worked on Oh Grow Up. It was sad to leave them behind, I think they're in for a long, long run. At least I was there for the beginning of it all.
