Unshaven. Depressed. \u00a0Unable to provide for anyone (including yourself) but still curious enough about things not to kill yourself.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>It would be fun to do a thing where you\u2019re feeding squirrels nuts in the park. But you only choose to feed them over yourself. Your nourishment is provided elsewhere.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>No dialogue. Just you. And music.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>And that was basically it. \u00a0And he TOTALLY went for it. \u00a0We had a blast. \u00a0Andy was so open to all my directions. \u00a0And he works in <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">real<\/span> Hollywood. \u00a0This is a brave actor who GETS it (and, I suppose, it helps that he gets ME.)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>So here it is.
