Home stretch time across the board.
Been taking shit too seriously.
Very soon now: my first screening of The Shining. And yes, in a theatre.
WOW. “WHASSUP 08” makes those Bud commericals worthwile. I hated those things. Loved this. http://tinyurl.com/5el79l
In my next life I hope to come back as someone neither lazy nor easily distracted.
When I hear the word “Jedi” come out of a child’s mouth I feel this little pang where I wish it still meant what it did ten years ago to me.
Ah, snail mail. What horrors have you for me to… oh. Ah, fuck.
I’m not disappointed in you, per se, but I do wish you would go to sleep already.
You are NOT going to sleep untill I get fur more pages out of you… lazy sod.
okay.. maybe i spoke a little too soon.
Oh god… I typo’d four as fur… what must you think of me internets?
Daer Nelson, sometimes you are so f’n stupid. Love, your better brain.
Raw matériel: in terms of pages the halfway point milestone was just hit. Now there is HEAPS of work left, but this is very exciting for me.
My biggest vice? Still lust. You’d think gluttony, but you would be wrong.
Oh Berkeley parking wardens, how do I loathe thee? Let me count the ways. The 36 different ways.
okay.. off to the gym and some planning/writing.. will table the Obama call-a-thon till tomorrow.
When in doubt just let the characters try and explain it to you. Occasionally that works.
Not feelin’ it yet… perhaps this shitty Anne Hathaway movie will get me fired up?
Just seven pages today. But the seeds of more and better scenes have been planted.
When I Am King: All resturants will be required to sell sides of toast. 2 slices will costnot more than 1 dollar. With butter and jam.
Pages in. Now to errands and some thinkin’ thinkin’ on the road.
I’m not allowing myself to leave the desk until I get two more pages out of me.
Page count for the day: 11. Give or take a paragraph.
Spinach is to Popeye as Diet Coke is to This One.
Status report: 5pps so far. Now off to the gym, lunch and review.
First hour and a half of writing today= three and a half pages. Good start. Sanity break time.
Alpha Dog made me ache for them to have enough $$$ NOT to shoot the last act on a soundstage. Damn.
Gonna stick at home tonight. Watch some movies and let the old life dissolve.
Good Morning, Internets. 20 days until America 2.0.

Feels like I overdid it on the abs the other night. Can barely get a dozen crunches in.
Once the election is over, I’ll have a lot more twits and blogs to follow. Right now the net is too much of an echo chamber.
Crying babies in the workplace are NOT my friend.

On second thought THIS: http://tinyurl.com/4xsaj8 is the best news all day.
I’ve got cabin fever.
When this is all over, this country is going to need an enema.
What’s that? You have free tix to Brothers Bloom? Yes, yes I do. Hit me up.
Maybe I SHOULD get back into radio news….

I still don’t get it.. Wil Wright a Guilliani Republican? Is this like what happened to Frank Miller and David Mamet? Or has he always been this way?
