A little discombobulated as I write this. Before I try to dig out a story from last weeks end I will try to explain the forces that brought about my current state.
In case you were unaware, we had to work on Saturday. Gratefully though, sound (among others) got wrapped early and I was back in Santa fe by 5. No rest for the weary though as the house in Golden still needed the final clean. So that was Saturday’s activities. Ended up finally unpacking the vehicles around 7pm. After packing I was back on the road down to ruidosa by 9 (7am call in the morning) finally arriving at the hotel around 1am. After this it gets more blurry. Right before closing my eyes I recalled that tonight was when clocks were to be moved forward. Unfortunately, the automatic clock setting on my phone had been screwing up ever since I got to ruidosa. After struggling in my confusion I settled and went to sleep. It wasn’t until after my alarm had woken me from a brief night’s sleep and I was showered and awake that I came to realize that somehow I had woken up an hot earlier than I needed. Thus, insted of 4 hours of sleep I got only 3. Good grief. Oh well. At least I had time to hit the starbucks across the street. And it’s raining anyway. Who knows what we’ll be able to shoot…the rain & wet everything don’t really match the post-apocolyptic windblown dust storms of our previous shots. Standing by…
Five hours later and the crew is desperately trying to turn rain soaked everything into dust & dirt blown. Great big fan blowing dirt everywhere. Just when we get it the rain starts up again. We eventually pull a couple shots off and are let out early. We’ll pay for it later…
