Halloween Horror Nights 2010
Oh, Halloween, how I love you...
I love scary movies, I love scaring people and I do sort of enjoy the strong intensity of being scared. I love the growing adrenaline that rushes through my body when I am sitting on the edge of my seat while watching a scary movie.
I grew up with 2 older brothers and a father that loved to scare me and my friends. So I am used to it. However, I was a little nervous about going to Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios. I was tired from a long day at work, but I promised my 2 friends that I would go. So I did.
And the thing that I think got me through the night in one piece was the fact that I was so tired; just plain ol' exhausted that I was very aware of my surroundings. Very AWARE!! I loved the adrenaline that was pumping through my veins almost the entire time I was in the theme park. And I enjoyed myself. But I absolutely enjoyed the 'monsters' scaring the living daylights out of the individuals who dared to scream. I loved watching the 'actors' chasing after people carrying chainsaws. It was a fascinating experience, and perhaps I will go again. But I'd kind of like to go with someone who scares easily.

A Wonderful Way to be Welcomed Back to Work...
I went home for 10 days for a family wedding. I was away from the WB lot for 10 days. That's like an eternity. Well, technically not really, but when you love where you work, it can seem like forever.
And though, I hate to admit it, I was a little stressed about being away that long. I am such a NERD! It's kinda sad. But I love where I work; I don't want to miss out on anything really cool or exciting!! Is that such a bad thing? I think not.
And to my utter surprise, I felt like I was welcomed back to the lot with open arms. Actually, it was more along the lines of encircled arms. Okay, it was a hug. And not just any hug. It was a HUG from Zachary Levi. Hmmm, yeah, let's just say I was very happy to be back at work that day.
CHUCK just happened to be filming outdoors the week I got back to work. And they were filming in a parking lot at a "bunker" for an episode titled: CHUCK vs The Couch Lock.
And there I was, on my lunch just enjoying the fact that I am fortunate enough to get to sit on the sidelines and watch filming. I am content with that. I could do that all day long. I am content with just about any filming, but it is definitely a lot more fun, when I get to watch a show I actually like.
Okay, anyway, back to the story: I am standing on the side watching everything. The cameras. The crew. The background. The stand-ins. And the actors. And Zac sees me watching everything and just waves and says "Hi." And I was happy to reply. Then he has to go over and get a "mic" on for the shot and he is a little ways behind me. He starts to go back toward the bunker, but then stops and come back over to me and gives me a HUG! He was nice enough to come over and say "Hey, what are you doing over here?" and give me that HUG!
OMG!!!
I don't really remember very much after that point. My mind's a little foggy. But let me just say again, that I felt happy to be back at work.
