Day 63 of The Great Santa Adventure 2013 – 53 Days to go.

Breakfast at Aroma Bakery Cafe 11-02-13Woke up and got going around 5:00. Followed up with some potential Internet marketing clients. Headed into LA about 8:30. Had breakfast at Aroma Bakery Cafe on Sunset. The breakfast burrito was terrific, but a bit pricy- I dropped $26 on breakfast. I went to the “Beats by Dre” audition at 11:10.  I was the oldest, biggest, guy their by a long shot. We each select 2 lines for sheets on the wall. The lines had to do with a colors. I selected- “purple like kings” and "white like heaven”.  They also wanted me to dance a bit. That was very funny. I have no rhythm at all. This was the first non-Santa audition I had ever done. I have no idea of what they thought, but if dancing was important to them I’m sure I will not get it. I then went by the Clarry’s to rescue Gordon from Jennifer’s Bridal Shower. As it turned out, I left him there, he had plans to go suit shopping. I went back to Irvine and did laundry, updated my journal and just relaxed for the rest of the afternoon and evening. And I watched a bunch of music and comedy YouTube videos- as entertainment, inspiration and research.

Entertainment Career Fortune 11-01

Woke up and got going around 6:00. I created a new, better, Hummingbird SEO video in the morning and made the blog post for it. I also shot an Onboarding video for the Hello Santa Santas and created an email giving them a heads up about the Performer Agreement and the scheduling Calendar. I self submitted for a “Beats by Dre” commercial audition. They were looking for a cool Big guy. I was notified that I got the audition and it was for Saturday at 11:10AM. Kevin and Marci came over. Kevin bought dinner at Pick Up Stix. My fortune was “You will be unusually successful in an entertainment career”.

Santa Business Visit 11-02-13HALLOWEEN 1 year anniversary of my eye surgery. Woke up and got going around 7:00. Power went out last night about 1:00 AM. Strange, it was only out in parts of the house and it was not a breaker issue. Around 8:00AM I went and handed out 10 of the “Santa visits your business” fliers at businesses right around the house. I then had a meeting with the Hello Santa team and a potential investor. The meeting went very well. After the meeting I dropped one of my sister’s patio chairs off at the Clarry’s. After that I had a meeting with Bob Hud. We only had 5 groups of kids come by for candy. Kind of disappointing.
