Okay, 2 days before shoot day, and the cast had changed again. I got ZACKARY PIERCE, as I'd hoped, so now we have:

ZACKARY PIERCE
JACOB SLADER
BRETT MATHEWS
JASON CREW
EARL "THE DICKS MAN"
NICK MAZZARO
TY HUDSON
SCOTT WILDE
ANTONIO YORK
JOSH CARTER
CHRIS DANO
ANDREW ADDAMS
SEAN STEELE

Andrew Addams had told me he'd get double-penetrated for more money, and as tempting as that was, I'm at the very limit of my budget.

I got a phone call from Jason Crew's agent, telling me that Jason is sick with a cold, and he might have to drop out. He'll let me know later tonight. If that happens, I have a couple of 2nd choices in mind. And CHRIS DANO and SEAN STEELE have mysteriously gone silent. With less than 48 hours to go, I'm getting nervous.

Plus, the hotel right next to the studio won't give me much of a break on rates. "It's our busy season," the manager told me. Sigh.
