"We Have No Life Productions" throws a party

First let me say Happy Easter to all of my friends and loved ones. We've had a good one so far. MSJ'S basket was hidden in his grill. Mine was hidden behind a basket of unmatched socks (doh!). Soon is will be nap time for the kids, which is when my holiday truly begins.

It's been another eventful weekend. We went to the "Damn Good Job Party" thrown by Sheila Brothers of We Have No Life Productions to celebrate the award-winning film Undoing Time. It turns out this short film of extraordinary excellence was able to draw no small bit of attention at the Cinema City International Film Festival in Los Angeles, where it was awarded the People's Choice Award. The film was produced by We Have No Life Productions with Highfall Films. Bonus points for those readers who have been paying attention and know that Highfall Films is also the producer of Mike St. James' TV pilot Raven Rock. [Raven Rock's pilot script made it to the finals at the Cinema City International Film Festival, so it was a great night all around for Wilmington filmmakers.]

We had a great time at The Side Bar, one of Wilmington's great little bars on Front Street. And who was out there tearing up the dance floor? None other than one of the stars of both Undoing Time & Raven Rock, Kameron King. So many men won't dance, and shame on all of them. Kameron is hindered by no such reticence, but then Kameron's mother is a dance instructor so he has an unfair advantage. Sheila brought the excitement to the party and Kameron brought the enthusiasm. After a few hours most of us headed over to Tre Benzios again for some drinks and laughter. So let this be my official thank you to Sheila Brothers for a fan-fricken-tastic party and my public CONGRATULATIONS to the cast & crew of Undoing Time.

Now before I leave, I have to confess to the humiliating faux pas we committed. On Sheila's Damn Good Job Party invitation it clearly said no jeans; sadly for all of us, I did not see the actual invitation until today. She sent it to MSJ who in turn told me "It's casual." And casual we were. In MSJ's defence he is a visionary and attention to detail is not his strong suit. Nonetheless we were seriously under dressed. This leads to the new St. James' House Rule: The Actor's Wife will be the event planner for all activities henceforth. (And I owe Sheila another thank you for being forbearing enough to not give us the boot. You're a good woman.)
