Astin's Diary 1
Folks seem to be getting a laugh out of this over on my lj, so I thought I'd go ahead and share it here. My regrets that these crack!fics are unbeta'd, but it seems like it'd be a waste of time for a talented person to faff about with such a little thing.
TITLE: Safety Dance – Men Without Hobbit Feet
AUTHOR: Pecos – PecosPhil@sprintmail.com
RATING: PG for silliness and naughty language
FEEDBACK: remember the golden rule, (please!)
DISCLAIMER: I don’t make the toys, I’m
only playing with them. No money made,
nor disrespect intended
WHO’S IN IT?: People whom I’ve never met
and hold no actual grudge against
NOTE: I’m pretty sure Sean Astin is actually a
really nice guy. Ditto the other dudes
From the Journals of Sean Astin:
Wednesday the fourteenth.
Number of days we’ve gotten into Hobbit feet w/o filming them: 39!
6:10am – kissed Christine and drove to Stone St. Studio. Gas tank at 1/8th, need to fill up on break! Don’t forget to check the oil again.
6:25am – Hobbit feet. Damn Jackson, sure we won’t need the feet for filming today! Must be some sick Kiwi joke. Foot technician Foot has the sniffles. Advised chamomile tea, Echinacea and Vit. C with zinc. Need to buy hand sanitizer for the trailer sink.
8:10am – visit to set canteen. Turned down the temp on studio coffeepots. Don’t know the conversion for Celsius, but can tell that the setting is dangerously high. Checked kitchen for proper placement of fire extinguishers.
8:25am – Orlando arrives looking hung-over. Grouses about cold coffee and avoids me. Should have taken my advice last night about getting in early. Confront him anyway and offer to make him my patented Astin Tummy Soother. OB declines. Has a big hickey on his collarbone. Makeup will chew him out for that one. Viggo comes in looking smug and winks at Orlando-- must have gotten to bed at a reasonable hour last night.
9:00am – work commences on stage one…
