I did this on Friday.
My friend brought pastures and coffee. We made art all day, then walked to a local restaurant for dinner. It was perfection 🙌
Can we PLEASE normalize just hanging out at each other’s houses again? Why does every friendship meetup need to be a whole production, a restaurant reservation, and a $150 bill? I just want to sit on your couch, drink something, and talk for hours.

Hollywood talent agencies CAA, UTA and WME have teamed up to create the American Entertainment Alliance.
The organization wants U.S. legislation to force streamers like Netflix, Prime Video, HBO Max and Disney+ to spend at least 50% of their budgets on independent productions.

I stop going to women centered spaces when I see men in them. 💔
A reason why so many women love doing barre and Pilates and are willing to pay a premium to exercise in that environment is that the studio is almost entirely devoid of the type of man who would call you a whore for wearing a workout outfit..

Y’all! She found me on Instagram!
A random woman overheard my name at CVS.
"You're Ana Lydia? The ENTERTAINMENT WRITER that has a blog?"
Yes (me, curious - because, how do I know her?)
"I hope you don't think I'm weird, but the Entertainment Community Fund recommended your blog, and I've been using your post about Temp Agencies."
Me: HUGE smile.
Has it helped you?
"YES! Thank you!"
While I walked out without my meds, I did leave with a smile. How cool is it to have helped a random someone in her Hollywood career?
Also, remind me to tell you how I can't leave our home without running into someone, and that's why I rarely went out while undergoing chemo.

Instead of watching the @whitesox game live, the hubs is driving me, and STAYING, for my PET scan.
Let me remind you: He's been to EVERY #ColonCancer surgery, chemo appointment, scan & MRI. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. Taking days and weeks off to be by my side.

And as a HUGE Chicago sports fan, missing today’s game, after waiting YEARS for this moment, breaks my heart.
Instead, he’ll drive 1.5 hours each way to City of Hope, wait 2+ hours while I’m scanned, and watch the game when we get home.

Hubs is working on set today and is expected to work till way past midnight. It's the last shoot week for a movie that was entirely shot in LA over the course of a few months.
Big A-list stars attached, great female director, awesome crew... that we ran into on an off day.

The LA that supports the social programs and needs of communities states away from us. From preschools to food pantries, local organizations in Iowa and Ohio benefit from our work. From LA. From Hollywood...
because whether or not you work on set, set-life benefits all of us.
