I always feel so much better when I give myself goals.
Yoga- Check.
Laundry- Check.
Give my dogs a haircut- Check.
Get a hair cut- Check.
Finish two writing projects- Check.
Clean the house- Check.
Connect with social media to maintain online presence- Check.
It's lame I know, but I just get such piece of mind when I can look down and see where my day went.
Now if you'll excuse me,
I need a drink!

Creativity In Full Force...
Nonstop thoughts racing in my head.
Creative energy spinning out of control.
Ideas galore.
Now, where to find the time and money.
Both are out there within my grasp-
The momentum is building.
Now, how to utilize it in the right way?
Still climbing up the path.
The top is nowhere in sight.
I know it's up there,
My head is still in the clouds.
Looking forward to the day the path clears.
Just in time to realize it's time to start on a new adventure.
Happiness comes to me most when I am focused on the beautiful journey I've had so far.

True Blood Season 4
Waiting sucks! But thanks to A Group Production, the wait is over!
I'm pleased to present True Blood The Parody - Fairy Land:
WE always have a blast making parodies of our favorite television shows and movies. But I must admit, making this one was off the charts! Our cast including Jeff Payton, James Snyder and Beckie King rocked it out! However, the genius Amy Claire stole the show as Sookie!
Hope you enjoy!

What You Risk, Reveals What you Value...
People will suck you dry if you let them.
I'm not even talking about vampires...
Although we did just wrap on our latest project, True Blood The Parody! I will be posting it here soon.
While that rocks, one of my contract jobs does not.
I am done with shady business owners who think that they can do whatever they want without consequences.
For too long I've held my tongue and worried that I would ruin my reputation if I spoke out against an injustice in
the work place...
Now I realize the only thing hurting my reputation, is indifference.
Everyone has a voice. Some people choose not to use theirs.
I am not that person.
The bull$hit ends tomorrow!

Total Slacker!
I have been a total slacker!
I'm guilty of giving in to the summer temptations.
Sleeping in that extra hour. Eating that extra bowl of chips and salsa. Drinking that extra margarita. Skipping the extra sets in my workout routine. Spending less time working on my creative projects-
And now it's starting to catch up on me!
It's strange how quickly, gluttonous behavior turns into self hate...
I loath feeling out of shape.
I despise feeling uncreative.
I rage when feeling unproductive!
But I can't stand feeling helpless and hopeless either-
So enough of the complaining.
Time to refocus. I still have plenty of summertime fun ahead.
There are twenty-four hours in a day.
Definitely enough time to get shit done, stay creative and chug a lite beer!
B-A-L-A-N-C-E

Under Construction...
I guess I just have to accept that my life will always be like this.
I am a true work in progress.
Similar to the 405 Freeway in Los Angeles, I doubt that I will reach completion before my time on earth is up!
Every time I hit a pothole, I'm reminded that there will always be a need for resurfacing.
There are those days when everything clicks and falls right into place.
Then there are those days when I have to force myself into releasing my insecurities, and hope for the best.
I see the humor in an actor reminding himself to pretend to have a good day, even when everything feels overwhelming.
But the fact is, life can be as easy or as difficult as we make it- based on the choices we make.
When I choose to stay calm, focused and confident wonderful things happen.
It's easy to be happy living a full and balanced life when I'm thinking clearly-
Now if I could pay more attention to the road signs along my freeway of life.
Stop, when I see stop. Go, when I see go. Release, when I see release. Trust, when I see trust.
And remain clam when it's been a while since the last sign...
The destination is always clear when you keep the faith.

Just Another Manic Monday...
It's only Monday, and I can already tell that it's going to be an overwhelming week...
I just returned to Los Angeles after a visit home to spend time with my family.
The trip was a bittersweet reunion for me.
I was thrilled that my sister went out of her way to make sure I got to spend a lot of quality time with my little baby niece. The bond that I have with my sister is stronger than ever. Definitely sweet!
The bitter part came in several doses. All of which are too difficult to discuss right now.
So for now, I'm giving my best effort to focus on the goodness in my life, and remind myself that Mondays can be tough sometimes. Especially after an already emotional vacation with family!

What's All The Gossip About?!?
What's more hilarious than a Star Jones sex tape?
A Group Production's latest parody!
This is by far my favorite video that we've created to date!
We even wrote, produced and performed two original songs for this one!
I hope you'll all enjoy:

The Art of Balance
June is in the air-
Six months into 2011, the time is dancing by.
So far I'm pleased with the progress I've had.
It's always a challenge to live each day with the same energy, enthusiasm and passion.
I'm grateful for the days that everything clicks.
One of my largest goals over the past year and a half, has been to live everyday to my greatest potential.
For the most part, I believe I've successfully accomplished that feat.
Tonight I'm heading back to Los Angeles, after a much needed visit with my family.
I know I'm still on track, because as painful as it is to leave my beautiful little niece and the rest of my family, I am eager to get back to work on my creative projects.
Hopefully, in the very near future, I will be able to visit my family a lot more often.
Until then, I'm thankful that I have reached a level of peace in my heart at the sacrifices I make in order to live up to my true potential.
Living a full life requires a blend of compromise and balance that I'm feeling much more confident about living!

I Hate Goodbyes!
Tonight I had to say goodbye to my little peanut Kellyn.
I never imagined the utter joy I'd get from holding my niece in my arms.
Her beautiful blue eyes, always cheerful disposition and contagious smile-
One look at her and my heart melts.
From the second she entered this world, she had me wrapped around her precious finger.
She knows it too!
I guess there are worse things in the world than smothering my niece with love, kisses and made up nursery rhymes...
Isn't that what Italian Godfathers are for?
Now, if only I could convince my sister to move to LA so that I could spoil her on a daily basis!
