Well- it has been excactly two weeks since my tv debut and I must say its a crazy web that Hollywood spins. I dont think in any way that being on a reality show justifies me as any sort of celebrity- but I think my 15 minutes has given me a taste of what that feels like. For most of you you who dont know, I appeared in two episodes of season 3 of Millionaire Matchmaker. My second episode, which I dated an "Eco Millionaire" - put me on the map as the most democratic and patient dater of the universe. He was a bit crazy, to say the least.
The days that followed were sureal- a front page story on the Guam newspaper, The Pacific Daily News, an onslought of Facebook friend requests, Sugar daddy offers, and the best part- free drinks for those wishing to praise me for not walking off the set during my disaster date. What still takes getting used to is people stopping me out in public (ie Target, the grocery store, etc.) and being excited to share thier opinions with me about the show. All of them are very sweet- but it always catches me off guard. Sometimes I get the point and whisper of people - and thats uncomforatble. But I guess its all part of the gig. Taken all with good humor- of course.
"So what now what?" is what im constantly asked- do I want to do more tv? Yes- of course, but what kind? Or do I simply bow out gracefully and go back to being a writer? All this- is yet to be determined.
