be a movie extra
Interesting, but I'm not sure I'd do it again. 3 years ago

It was three very long days (11-12 hrs.) doing the country dancing scenes for the movie “Thelma and Louise”. It was either endless waiting, or doing the same scene over and over from different angles. When I finally saw the movie, I briefly saw the back of my cowboy hat in one scene, and my boots in another scene.



get a massage
getting a good massage is enjoyable, but giving a good one can be just as nice! 3 years ago

Besides, you shouldn’t get a massage from a friend or significant other without being willing to give one as well.



chart my family tree
Worth doing, but very, very frustrating at times 3 years ago

Some of my Mother’s maternalk relatives were Mormon, including one Mormon pioneer, so there are plenty of records for some branches of my family. One thing to watch out for, however, is that you shouldn’t blindly accept everything that you find as being accurate because some of the people creating those genealogical records were not that rigorous.

Both of my grandfather’s, however, have been brick walls. For example, I’ve only just recently found my paternal grandfather’s birthdate in the World War I draft records.

Yes, it’s worth doing, but be prepared for brick walls, false leads, relatives with common names that make it hard to trace them, weird spellings in the census records, etc.
