While most would first ask, “What’s SAG?” Out here in the whacky world of “What can you do for me?” and “Who are you sleeping with, excuse me, ‘do you know’?” and let’s not even forget about my favorite, “What do you drive?”… ugh, I mean Los Angeles everyone who wants to be someone knows that SAG is the Screen Actors Guild. The Union! It is a right of passage for all aspiring “talent”!
I think I did it for varying reasons, wanted to do it for a while, but I did it. I got my third voucher the other week, and today I got the letter. The letter says, “call us, pay your dues, we’ll give you a card :-)!”, then…. But I did get my card for a reason, so you might see or hear me one day…?
In the mean time, when I pay may dues in the coming weeks, and actually get my SAG Card, I’ll write more about how and why I chose to do this. Until then, know that I am about to have a “moment”…. excuse me! (method acting is tough in text!!!! think me, over dramatizing the whole thing (but isn’t that just me?), back of my hand to my forehead, suddenly vaclempt, scurries off left….)
