Though nothing could hold the special place in my heart Halloween does, I am a huge fan of Thanksgiving.  I ignore everyone prematurely putting their Christmas trees up, skipping over this joyous holiday entirely, and try to focus on family and friends and all the things I'm truly thankful for. 
Here's a start:
1. I got to surf on Saturday- in NOVEMBER!   (I love CA)
2. Booked a really fun gig yesterday
3. Heading to see family for Thanksgiving today
4. Crisp, cool air that encourages me to go for a hike with the dogs
5. White chocolate peppermint mocha (yeah, I said it)
What are you thankful for this holiday season?

Between Notes, an awesome film about indie musicians that I was privileged to be a part of, is released TODAY nationwide! 
From the director:
Between Notes is now available to buy or rent from places like iTunes, Amazon, and numerous cable companies through their respective VOD services. With this big event finally happening, we need any help you are able to provide. 

One of the biggest actions you can take to help the cause is to rate and review Between Notes on iTunes. You can do that here: http://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/between-notes/id478253881 While everyone won't buy or rent the movie from iTunes, they will look to the iTunes reviews when deciding whether to watch the movie. The same can be said for Amazon, but since the movie is not available for pre-order there is no link for us to provide. If you prefer to shop there or just feel extra giving in honor of the Christmas Season, please go there and review the movie as well. And for your "go to" small talk conversation during the Thanksgkving break send those relatives you only see once a year to http://betweennotesmovie.com and introduce them to the magic of the spoon pen movie. Great conversation is sure to follow. 

In addition to this, please feel free to tweet about the movie, post a message on your facebook wall, email friends and family, and climb your local water tower so you can hang a massive sign about the Between Notes release. Okay, please don't do the last one as we can't afford the potential law suits.

pssst! Actors, listen close!  Another Thrifty Actor Tip!

I dread paying higher for gas than I need to, especially out here where it's much more expensive.  That's why I have the gasbuddy app on my android.  Before I had the phone, I would check online.  Just go to gasbuddy.com and enter your location and it will tell you the latest prices of gas in that area.  Sort by price, and you're sure to not be regretting your too high purchase!

Interesting Facts

The first person selected as the Time Magazine Man of the Year - Charles Lindbergh in 1927.  

Running

I think after 3 half marathons, I'm ready to try my first full one.  Anyone have any suggestions for one in my area that's super fun and not too challenging?
