Yep, I missed the boat this week.  I told you I'd blog every Sunday, but it's Tuesday now.  That means this post is 48 hours late (hello, math).  I'll make it up to you, though.  I promise.  Just think - I'll blog again in only another 5 days.  Moving on...

It hasn't been a terribly exciting week, but that's alright, due to the great things to come.  I'm considering this a calm before the storm (a good storm, though, as in no death and destruction with all of that general nonsense and unpleasantness).  Amazing things are ahead here.  I'm not sure how far ahead yet, but I know they're not too far away.

"'First, it's 'Who is Jake Gyllenhaal?,' then it's 'Get me Jake Gyllenhaal,' then 'Get me someone who looks like Jake Gyllenhaal,' and then 'Who is Jake Gyllenhaal?'  Right now, I'm between 'Who is Jake Gyllenhaal?' and 'Get me Jake Gyllenhaal.'" - Jake Gyllenhaal on the stages of fame

Of course, casting directors are not going to call me if they're looking for Jake Gyllenhaal.  I am not Jake Gyllenhaal, nor do I look like him.  They already know this, due to their access to headshots (including mine).  I'm sure you know by now that I am not Jake Gyllenhaal, too.  If you did not know this, I am terribly sorry to disappoint you.  My name is Jolynn Carpenter.  I am not Jake Gyllenhaal.  Welcome to my blog. 

Anyway, right now, I'm still in the "Who is Jolynn Carpenter?" stage.  At this point, it's about doing good work and being patient, even if it takes years to get to the "Get me Jolynn Carpenter" stage.

Wow.  I'm feeling euphoric today.  I'm going to have a tea and do some yoga.  Stop laughing.  I'm serious.
