You can't knock me off my feet when I'm already on my knees

Everyone say happy birthday Dave! My boyfriend is officially legal to drink as of today.

I've been getting a little demotivated with work, just because I've been alone. It's taxing being alone from 8 when I get up until 4 or 5 when I get done with work. Not that I can't do it; I've just been bored lately for lack of something social to do. Having my iPod helps a lot though. Anyway, I asked Chris what was up today, and he said to meet him in the computer lab. So when I was ready (I was slow getting going this morning), I went down there, and gasp! He wasn't there! It was a total "lulz wut?" So I checked my e-mail and it turned out he has a bird walk from 9 to 12. He said he'd meet me at 12 instead and not to sample today. Hmmm I wonder what we're doing at noon. Planning to rule the world? Okay! Sounds good to me! I'll go back to my cabin and write, then!

Except now I'm not sure if I want to continue writing something random I came up with last week, or the first draft of a script for Pawn of Prophecy. It's something Frances and I have been wanting to do for a while, I think, and since the cinemas are putting out movies of every other fantasy fiction out there, we figured we could at least give it a shot. Even if we are dreaming way too big and don't get a movie director or producer to look at our work for realzies, it's fun to dream, and it's fun to just do it anyway. It takes care of this writing bug that keeps itching under my skin. Maybe we can get input from other people too, like Abbie and/or Rachel.

All we need to do now is to learn the correct format for scripting, and how to write a good one. It's no matter for now - we can always go back and change it, and if we really get into it, of course we will. You never know. Maybe someday Frances and I will be rich. Well duh - I'm gonna be rich someday, one way or another! I have to get Mom that cute little black convertible two-door manual-shift beamer! AND build my parents a dream house in a dream location. Aaron, I'll need your help for that second one.

I think I'll keep plugging away at that script. We'll see what Frances has to say about what I had as of last night whenever she gets back from work or whatever she's doing today.

  2. Ok, so the above post isn't really from Adam, it's from me. (Somehow I don't think he would refer to anything as cute...much less consider pastel hair wash?...) My inability to recognize the incorrect profile name as well as correct the resulting booboo are classic examples of how lacking my technology skills really are despite living in the house of geek... :p
