12 of 12 (finally) for my nonaversary

FINALLY, I have had enough time to get my 12 of 12 edited and uploaded. Phew! What a day or so! If you're new to 12 of 12, head over to Chad's site for the lowdown. My previous entries are here. As always, I hope if you did your own 12 of 12 that you'll share with the world! Click any photo to enlarge.

12:25am: Keith has gone to bed and I'm up working on the Casting Wiki. The headshots taped up on the wall of cubbies are the actors who read for us at the HILMMAKS staged reading last weekend. My rockstar intern will take these down the following day. (Bless her.)

6am: I've finished work on the Casting Wiki (for now) and am getting out of the shower. Thwok stands guard. Do other cats do this? I know dogs do. But I've never had a Shower Guard Cat 'til Thwok.

2:30pm: BONUS PHOTO. Keith has forgotten a part of his wardrobe for a commercial audition. Joni has arrived, so she and I hop into the car and head over to the audition location to hand off his sweatshirt. This is the HALLOWEEN bonus photo because of the jack-o-lantern decoration in the shop window behind him.

3:10pm: Joni is calling her mom to make sure she knows she's made it to LA safe and sound.

6:36pm: Dinner at Dan Tana's. Yum. Way yum.

8:27pm: Dinner's over, and it's bar time with Mike. This is Subhash, Joni, and Keith (the smallest our group will be all night long).

9pm: Arrival of Babes McPhee. Everyone is very excited. Sure, Joseph Fiennes is hot and all, but this is Babes Fuckin' McPhee we're talking about. That's a celeb!

9:26pm: My sister Deb (future HHH rockstar producer) shows me some see-food. Hee! ;)

9:42pm: Vida happens to know Ron Jeremy, so she brings him by to meet MCJ and pose for a few photos. Very sweet.

9:58pm: Rose and Ashley kickin' it by Craig's home base.

10:18pm: May I touch your chest? Please? YES? Okay! Awesome!

10:38pm: A visit from one of my favorite actors, Katie Keane. She just randomly happened to be there (as did a bunch of ABC casting execs and such)! So cool!

10:58pm: It's almost time for this crew to call it a night. Lots of love for my Niecey Ash and one of the world's hottest young playwrights. (Sorry I made you cry, Babes. *sniffle*) Also in attendance were Eric, Laura, Vanessa, and Asterios.

So, that's it for my 12 of 12! No special nonaversary trip this year. Just lots of playtime and good friends, amazing food, and strong drinks. Life's fun like that. Shall we do it again next month? Yes. Yes we shall! Thanks again, Chad!!

that's all right *sniffle* - you obviously made up for it by letting me eat your shoulder.

Yeah! Your Nonanniversary looks like it was so much fun and filled with lots of great people. Thanks for sharing!!!

---And no, I've never a shower guard kitty... mine flips out if he's anywhere near the bathroom when the water turns on.

thanks! and to put you at ease, my cat does the same thing...sometimes he event ventures into the shower with me. very strange.

see you next month!

Hey Bon! :) Great pics!

Thanks for your comments on mine. I never got to go to the garden this summer, so it was my first time seeing it. I'll try to put up some other pics the kids aren't in. We get to take the darlings on a bus, which is great fun. The book's a reference to one of the Crossing Jordan premieres...I think season 4...with the mass pile up in the tunnel. Jordan tells the story to a little girl to try and make her laugh.

I'm off to get dressed and go futon shopping. I need an upgrade from the air mattress. LOL.

Great pics Bon you have another great 12 of 12 this month, now THAT is what I call dinner :)

Posted by: Pete at October 14, 2006 7:46 AM

My cat Incus does the same thing! He pushes his way into the bathroom while I'm having a shower and he lies down behind the toilet and waits, squinting his eyes to be oh-so-cat-cool. (Eye squinting is probably the cat version of wearing expensive shades.)

What is that? They like the steam, or they just want to make sure that the evil water doesn't kill you? :)

What a blast!! You have a rockstar life.
I think I may have to take a trip over to Dan Tanas. I just had myself a nice burger from L.A buns at 1:00 am...thank you very much weight loss plan!
I think your cat may be the only one who guards you in the shower.They have those cute stickers you can place on your door that read "Watch cat" with a silouette of a cats head with fangs,it's rather charming and I have one on my door!
You worked your buns off casting those rockstar actors and deciding,the film will be a smashing hit!
Keep on rockin in the free world sister!

The wine wrapping idea was my boyfriend's. He is very clever that way, or so he thinks.. :)

I do think, judging from your pictures, that you had more fun at your party though.

Looks like someone had a GREAT day!

Love the pics.

Hey Bon!

Great pics - you all look like you had a FABULOUS time!! My kitty, Burt (RIP), always guarded me in the shower. He would sit in the meatloaf facing the door on the bathmat!

Thanks for your comments on my 12 of 12 - I left MySpace because of continuing to be harassed by the person I wrote you about over the summer and I wasn't sure about being on there in the first place. So, I'm still around on the Showfax board and will have my own website sometime soon and will of course continue with the 12 of 12!!

Woah, sounds like you had a busy 12th! Can you believe there are only 2 more left in this year?
Peace,

Looks like you had a fun October 12th!

And in addition to those yummy fries from In-and-Out, I must say that that dinner you had looks very yummy also. :)

See ya next month!

What a fun 12 of 12! I may do this in November. By the way, my black cat "Sprite" is also a "shower guardian," and she takes her job VERY seriously! [LOVE that photo of Thwok]!
