It's A Wonderful Life

Of all the holiday traditions, watching "It's a Wonderful Life" is my favorite. No matter how many times I see it, I end up blubbering like a complete idiot. It touches something in me. It makes me reflect on my own life, and it reminds me, as cheesy as it sounds, what is truly important.

A LITTLE MUSIC FOR THE HOLIDAYS!

I needed a little music to keep the holiday spirit going for me and Rusty while we are across the country from the family for Christmas. So of course I had to listen to this clip of "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" from Sister Act 2. It always makes me smile, sing and jump to my feet!





I also had to add a little holiday cheer with this Christmas song from "Best Man Holiday".






Now while I'm not a big Chris Brown fan, I have to admit I enjoy this song from the movie "This Christmas"....






Okay...this last one is not a Christmas song but it makes me want to jump up and DANCE!!!







Yes.. I came back and added one more. I just watched the movie "Joyful Noise" and I found myself up and dancing with Rusty to this medley so I had to include it here!





HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!!

Here's a little holiday humor to make you laugh out loud!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Happy Holidays to ALL!

Not Rusty but looks like him:)

Life has been pretty good. I have been offline for a bit but happy to say I have found in these last few months my career has been keeping me busy. I've booked a few acting jobs and have begun to take my health much more seriously.

The funny thing is, seeing myself on television forced myself to see myself as others see me rather than how I imagined I looked. Wow! I dusted off my LA Fitness membership card and made friends with a certain treadmill to get the blood flowing and the fat melting.

I am finding a little time everyday to be good to myself by exercising and incorporating meditation into my day. Where this road will lead, who knows but it feels good to feel good!

It is a strangely warm and sunny Christmas day here in Los Angeles.  My dog Rusty and I plan on taking a long walk to soak in the sun, burn a few calories and enjoy the benefits of living in Southern California.  


     

Laughter is the Best Medicine!!

They say laughter is the best medicine.

This clip from the "Ellen" show had me on the floor in tears laughing!

Enjoy.

Appearing on CW's "Hart of Dixie" November 11th!

Well, folks out there in the ether... I am happy to report I just got word my karaoke singing debut as "Ned"on the CW's "Hart of Dixie" is scheduled to air on Monday, November 11, 2013.

Yes, it may be a small role but I had a blast!  I have faith this will lead to more opportunities to keep my dreams alive as an actor.

The season just started. It's a great show it! Check it out if you can.

Veteran Character Actor Ed Lauter Passes...

Veteran character actor Ed Lauter passed away at the age of 74 of cancer.

Character actors are those amazing performing artists who we all seem to know by face but often not by name. They scare us, make us laugh, cry or simply bring joy to our lives by giving performances we love, doing their part to make the shows we love... the shows we love.

Not everyone can be the "star" of the show, it takes a team in front and behind the camera to get it done. From "Mannix" to "True Romance" to "Leaving Las Vegas" to "Shameless" to "Trouble With the Curve", this actor's resume chronicles an impressive expanse of film and television history. 


Clearly Mr. Lauter was a team player.

He will be missed.
