Atrium, Bikini Shots
Craziness. Crazy day today. Melissa (my Atrium counselor) called me at 9 am (waking me up)--to confirm that I was available to work that day. Grr. Yes, as I told your assistant yesterday. They're so nice at Atrium but sometimes the left hand don't know what the right is doing. So she didn't call back, I fell back asleep and woke up at 11:45. They always call by 10:00 am if there's an available assignment, so I'm thinking I'm free until my regular 5-8 assignment. I decide to go to church, then get my pictures developed, then send them off to Electric Talent. (Backstory: Electric Talent, an agency with whom I've been freelancing, submitted me for a print modeling assignment, but they need to see what I look like in a bikini, and I have no comp card. I called them--they said I can use a snapshot, but I can't get it back, so I can't use a snapshot that I have already and like. SO. Doug wisely suggested that I get a disposable camera and have the shots developed at a 1-hour place. So last night I showed up with my yellow bikini and my orange CFMs in a bag, changed into them in the hallway bathroom, and Duncan and I had a mini-photo shoot in the "sexy" hallway outside the theater. It was hilarious--I would do some straight poses, showing of muscle definition and so forth, and then flip my hair back and act all surprised to see the camera. Duncan suggested we shoot some on the stage after the show, which we ended up doing, while Kevin (the Artistic Director) and C.L. (the assistant AD) lurked in the shadows, trying to catch glimpses without being too skeevy.)
SO. I had to get these pictures developed quickly today, and send them off. I dropped them off at Alpha Photos in the Rock Center concourse, and then ran upstairs to my assignment, hoping to be able to sneak down before 5:00 at some point to pick them up. My assignment today was on the trading floor--they are SO nice up there. Just the nicest, most easy-going people there, which is funny because their jobs are crazy. I sat up there doing phone coverage, Suzy bought me lunch, and she let me sneak downstairs to get my pictures. AND she let me go early because it was such a nice day. I picked put the best one and UPSed it to Electric Talent.
Breathe.
