*Sigh*...The Auckland Affair

My love affair with this city has been re-ignited.

Despite the fact that I only slept for 45 minutes on the plane last night and began sneezing the second the plane landed, and despite the fact I seem to be suffering from acute hypothermia, I had a FABULOUS day on my one-day Visa hiking, napping, and eating oh-so-amazing local apples and kiwis.

Being in the right place at the right time also led me to being spun around in a speeding pick-up truck around the back alley of a West Auckland film studio (in broad daylight, friends, it wasn't "like that") conferring with a friend-of-a-friend dolly operator about agencies and The Industry here, and suddenly I have a guy who's expecting a headshot & resume by Monday.

*Cursing myself* Always, always, ALWAYS have a headshot & resume on you...even if you are in a pick-up truck in transit from Vanuatu to Tel Aviv.

Because you just never know.
