“It’s 8:00 on Sunday morning. I’m about to shoot my first shot for the pilot of my very own television show.

I refocus. I’m being talked at by Hunter, my director. He looks like he’s fifteen years old. Paul is standing just behind him on his cell phone. We’re filming the field piece right outside of The Cheesestore in Silverlake. This will correspond with my overall theme of building a box lunch to take to a performance at the Hollywood Bowl.”
