Dolphins, Blades, and an Obama Movie Set

was in Australia on half vacation Half work. Was at the beach at the time watching the waves. They were bigger and different, almost just HIGHER out of the water, even tho the beach was still just flat. I watched a pod of dolphins swim by in it and they were huge, very long and just big. Then the water receded a bit like the tide was changing and revealed this big race face that the water was crashing over this whole time which made it seem so high out of the water. All these sea birds moved in to feed on whatever they could find in the seaweed covering this rock face. Was cool. Some tall guy wearing a Walkman roller bladed directly into the water on the hard sand of the beach. I was wondering what wheels he had for his beach blades, cause clearly this was a normal thing for him to do. Then we skated off down the beach on the hard sand like it was no problem. I was dog-sitting this little tan bulldog, or maybe even French bulldog, and he was just the best dog, he was laying, half on me, half in the sand, as I gave him belly rubs and we watched the beach. Really good boy and made me want a bulldog. Then I had to leave the beach to go to work for the job I was there for: helping out on a movie set with my cousin Tim. It was supposed to be some political movie and when we got there the main actor was just asked to change the president he was going to play and now needed to play Obama and the movie was about Obama buying bombs now, so the actor was not happy about it, one because he was white, and two, he didn’t like to defame Obama as some weapons dealer now. The director said it’s a fictional story so it’s all good. We drove this big movie rig to the set we’d start filming at: this park under a covered canopy with a big screen setup. Was hanging with Tim reviewing my role, which he said just go with the flow and I’ll figure it out, and setting up for the filming with everyone else.
