It's Lara's birthday today. She passed the midnight threshold cutting together our trailer, which we filmed yesterday. Well, her and Jak filmed it. I lifted stuff and made tea and chirped in with things like, "Holy shit, is that a computer...?!" But it looks great and sending it out makes me feel good - like we're doing all we can to draw a crowd.
Did I mention it's Lara's birthday today? I always defer to her wisdom and today I defer to her age. Every five minutes. I ring a bell and shout "HAPPY BIRTHDAY LARA" into the world. Just to make it right, you know?
Anyways. We're in the final stretch. Rehearsals have become unexpectedly personal. Reaching deep into the self in order to act based on who you are, what you know - like what they say about wearing makeup so it looks like you're not wearing it? (...the phrase "act natural" suddenly comes back to me in a reexamined and clearer way--)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LARA...! (I almost missed you that time...!) -love yr Leona
