WatchJust a little something for fun one day at the beach.
Story came to me in waves (get it? waves? lolz) and shot in about 8 minutes total, including a break to get my husband to come over and shoot the last two shots, on my Sony Cybershot.
Incidentally, my DH remarked after first seeing it, “You managed to overact your one line.”
Thanks, honey.

I want someone to scratch my back while we watch Fantastic Mr. Fox. Someone who understands when I need to be alone and when I need them to reach out. A guy who actually wants to talk to me and wants to do silly things like ice skate and finger paint.
So…a gay man? ;)

I have 17 drafts of posts that are either
too personal
or require
too much effort.
Why don’t I delete them?

What is with people who haven’t tweeted in 6 months suddenly posting things like
My cat is so funny LOL
or
This guy stinks on the subway
or
Long day. Better get to bed early this time.
I just don’t understand it. If you’re going to tweet sporadically, the least you can do is be funny.

Here's My Two Cents. It's Worth More Than Anyone...
So there’s a bit of a discussion going on on my friend’s Facebook wall. She made a statement and a bunch of people have chimed in with advice. I’m going to liken it to having the hiccups.
You know how when you have the hiccups, everyone including people who’ve never given you the time of day before, suddenly come swooping in wearing a cape and announcing their fail-proof...

The Tragic History of Chelsea's Wedding Poem →
I know nothing about Chelsea Clinton’s wedding nor do I read the Huffington Post. However, I am glad I came along this story and this film clip. Very interesting - you can’t write that kind of stuff.

God Save Us, Or Why I Don't Listen to the Radio...
On the way home tonight I was listening to the radio.
Two idiots were dolling out sex advice to callers.
Naturally, I listened.
The first caller was 21 and they set him straight. I won’t get into it but it was really good advice, all things considered.
Then a girl named Liz called in to say this:
Well, I’m bisexual and I have a boyfriend but I sleep around with girls and my...

A Charlatan's Progress, Wherein I Script My Job &...
I wrote a script two years ago that went nowhere.
It was written for the express purpose of just getting something done.
There are so many variables in this line of work. (I feel a little like a charlatan talking about ‘this line of work’ since I’m kind of out of the game right now. Which is why I’m doing this.) You’re always dependent on a variety of other...
Write One Leaf: Queue →
As you may have guessed, Write One Leaf relies heavily on tumblr’s “Queue.” That is, the writing prompts are written well ahead of time, loaded up into the queue, then doled out over time based on a few rules. In theory, this gives Write One Leaf a certain rhythm, and limits the number of posts a…
Don’t sweat it. Maybe if people didn’t sit staring at their Dashboards all day...

I feel like my life has become full of things I can’t or won’t say.
Not the least of which involves my part-time, minimum-wage job.
