I responded to a Craigslist ad, they were looking for some extras for a new movie coming out starring Method Man and Edward Furlong, which seemed to be interesting at the very least. I applied with a few glamor shots, was hired almost immediately, and went today to the shoot.

They needed hobo looking people, and I was one of them. The women in wardrobe said she wanted to make me look pregnant, so she stuffed some blankets under the dirty, grimy dress she'd put on me and duct taped it around my waist. Dusted some more dirt on me, make me look like a junkie, gutter-punk pregnant girl, and sent me on set. Everyone, including Method Man, was pretty convinced that I was pregnant and one person even yelled at me for smoking with child. Pretty funny shit.

After we were done shooting, Method Man rode with us (us being a few of the extras and the wardrobe lady) and we talked about the most random ass shit ever.

lanahyde (7:01:14 PM): Dude, guess who the fuck I just met
Kenny (7:01:31 PM): leslie uggums
lanahyde (7:01:40 PM): I met Method Man
Kenny (7:01:48 PM): whoa
lanahyde (7:01:53 PM): I was an extra in a movie called "The Mortician"
Kenny (7:02:02 PM): i saw method man's dick in a youtube video once
Kenny (7:02:05 PM): x(
lanahyde (7:02:19 PM): He plays a borderline autistic mortician in a ghetto area
lanahyde (7:02:23 PM): It looks like a decent movie
lanahyde (7:02:43 PM): But yeah, I'm an extra, I play a cracked out pregnant junkie gutterpunk
Kenny (7:03:04 PM): i never would've pegged a role like that for method man
lanahyde (7:03:14 PM): I fucking know
lanahyde (7:03:31 PM): Dude, he's a cool fucking dude
lanahyde (7:03:50 PM): We were talking about ketchup and his fear of toilet seats for half an hour
Kenny (7:03:56 PM): lol
lanahyde (7:04:12 PM): and then he asked me about herpes and HPV because we were talking about biology
lanahyde (7:04:32 PM): like, "so wait, I heard you can catch herpes from toilet seats"
Kenny (7:04:54 PM): i think your sunday has bested all of my sundays combined
lanahyde (7:05:05 PM): and I was like, it's unlikely because toilet seats cool down pretty damn fast and there's little chance the bacteria can survive on surfaces that cool
lanahyde (7:05:28 PM): and he's like, but you can catch it without wearing a condom?
Kenny (7:06:35 PM): was he wearing a doo rag?
lanahyde (7:07:22 PM): and I said "well, yeah dude, male and female genitals are mucous membranes, and that's the best way to catch ANYTHING. If you wear a condom, you're still not safe, because if they're having an outbreak or they somehow got semen or vag juice on their pubic area, it'll get on your skin and possibly IN you"
lanahyde (7:07:39 PM): and he mentioned HPV, and asked if it was similar
Kenny (7:07:50 PM): why wasn't anyone filming THIS
lanahyde (7:08:22 PM): I explained that a wart on your finger is HPV, but there are different kinds that can affect you differently and only affect certain parts of your body.
lanahyde (7:08:45 PM): He's like, "well, i heard that in guys, it's like, no symptoms at all, but in girls, it means ovarian cancer?"
lanahyde (7:09:59 PM): I was like, "It depends on they type. NOt all males have no symptoms, like some get warts inside their urethra, some on their actual penis, some on their pubic area, but some people don't, even if they have the same type. With women, it's all about getting a vaccine because it's all a 'what if?' thing"
lanahyde (7:10:17 PM): He thanked me and asked me if I wanted to take a picture with him, and I said, "sure, why not"
lanahyde (7:10:33 PM): I was like, HAHA YEAH BOIII inside, but outside I was really cool and smooth
Kenny (7:10:47 PM): awesome
lanahyde (7:11:25 PM): On set, he was wearing a very nice suit with nice shoes, like light brown leather wingtip church shoes with a grey suit, green button up shirt underneath, glasses, and a nice hat
lanahyde (7:11:27 PM): like a bowler
lanahyde (7:11:48 PM): the picture i have with him, I'll send. I was out of my costume, wish i'd had a picture of myself in that thing

Me and Method Man

It was a very fun experience. I suggest everyone try being an extra at least once in their lives.

i am 2d, but having so many faces and facets can be slightly frustrating and confusing, i imagine.

we sat comfortably by the lake
under overcast skies
but lit ourselves
with sunny dispositions

i say with great pleasure that I'm thankful for every single bad moment I've experienced and every time I was a terrible person.  I would not be where I am if not for every foul word and for every misstep.

I am: genuinely happy
I hear: "Stock och sten", by Dungen
