Jai

July 4th:

It's Independence Day. A holiday I'm familiar with, thanks to having an American mother. My girl is working, and I have a conference call with my agent later this afternoon. A good one.

The past few weeks have been incredible. Ayla and I have seen each other almost every day. The only times that we haven't been together, were any night shifts that shes worked. We have silently taken turns staying at each others home, and have gotten used to bringing a bag of clothes each time. Look, it might be a 'puppy love' phase, but all I want to do is spend every moment that I can with her. And I'm pretty sure she feels the same. I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure she's still in love with me.

In the past few weeks, we have been out to different places all over town. She has shown me restaurants, bars and shops; showing off her home turf. We have been living this fun, carefree life since I've been home. I wouldn't have it any other way. And at the end of this month, I will be taking her to Australia. A place that she's never been. The place where I grew up.

When my agent does call later on, it will be to discuss an audition that I will be doing in New York next month. It's for a movie based on a book series, with projected filming starting later next year. I've been reading over the piece of the script that I was given, and it seems pretty cool. Ayla went and bought the book series and we have both been reading it. It's actually pretty good.

When I'm up in New York, I will also be doing some more smaller auditions that my agent added. Hey, as far as I see it, the more the better. And you know what doesn't hurt? Having my own personal cheerleader. Ayla hasn't stopped showing this amazing, unconditional support for my job. She told me that she would 'stand outside with a Choose Jai sign and solicit all the auditions'. Her exact words. How fucking cute is that?

Later on this year I will be back in Australia to film, but it won't be for nearly as long as I was in Budapest. Thank God. I'm thinking a month maximum. Maybe I can steal Ms. Campbell away from her job again for that trip.

Damn, I love how happy she is for me. Makes me proud. Proud to be able to do this awesome job that I love, and proud to have someone who loves me giving me more support than I deserve.

How in the hell did I get so lucky? In such a short time, I've managed to fall madly in love and have a relationship that others wish for.

I hope this never ends.

It is hot as hell today, and I'm dying to go jump in the pool as soon as possible. Ayla needs to get her ass home.

"So, great news! I will have off from any training the week of July 23rd, so I tentatively took off work that entire week and both weekends for Australia, if that works for you," Ayla excitedly said while bobbing around the pool.

"Yes! That's perfect! I told you, all you had to do was tell me when," I said back.

"Oh my God, I can't wait!"

"Me either! We're gonna have a great time. There is so much to see."

"I've already started mentally packing," she said.

"Oh really? Well don't forget it will be winter there, so we're lucky to see if get close to 65°F when we're there," I hesitantly said.

"Don't worry, I know. I've been checking out all these websites that say what the best things to do this time of year are, and they say that all the natural sites are the best in the winter-"
