As promised (threatened?), the weekend update. Flew the Redeye on Friday night. Didnt have any time to do anything fun (like writing) in the airport because I only waited about…
I take an airplane and lose three hours of my life tonight. When I land, everything is going to be tasty, as Im excited to be seeing everyone thats making…
Its been a busy week, despite being a day light on the workload, and I already find myself at Thursday, gasping for breath. What have I accomplished? Well, lets let…
No shit, there I was at Barneys Beanery, watching the Eagles play, and they won. Shit. I messed it up again. Oh well. Anyway, for the 4th time in 4…
Okay, so Im driving to work, right? No, wait – I read recently that every story can be made better if it starts with “No shit, so there I was…”…
Last night, I went to see Sideways before ending my day the same way I started it (by helping Klee lug stuff in the rain). I came away from the…
So here I am with short hair. Brad cut it for me last Sunday. This pic was taken on Tuesday, and since then, Ive been entirely too lazy, distracted or sleepy to update the site. I apologize for that.
But forget apologies – I have no hair!
Ive been thinking/talking about cutting it off forever (which is some kind of trend for me – it seems like I decide thatI need to cut my hair then do nothing but talk about it for months, a trend thats probably going to become the subject of another navel-gazing update sometime in the near future, but whatever), and finally, I just did it. Really, I dont care one way or the other about my hair, and this will save me a fortune on shampoo. Conservation – thats the order of the day here! Brad and Ryan (my boss) both commented that it makes me look younger, and Klee pointed out that it makes my ears look bigger. Tell me what YOU think by looking at the larger picture and commenting below.
Briefly, Ive been writing a lot on my Superhero story today, and its Andrews fault that I havent updated, as every spare moment of my time from Wednesday through friday was spent thinking about and writing stuff for the Branson project. Youll get nothing more out of me on that until we settle on an outline/treatment, and at this rate (the first act has been through thre major re-writes already), itll never get finished. Im going back to page 76 of my screenplay now, trying to finish up the act in the next day or so. I think i have 20 pages or so left in the 2nd, and maybe 30 of the 3rd. I think its pushing it some, length-wise, but well see what happens.
So Im walking down the street today (as I am wont to do) and two women was walking some ways in front of me. One of them turned slightly to…
ha! Youd think this would be an update about work. Youd think Id be complaining about hours or whining about duties, but NO! Not in this update. This is something…
Take the poll and tell me about your resolutions or lack thereof. Im making conservative resolutions, but at least Im making some. Now I resolve to find some food because…
Clapboard is back in action on the last day of 2004, so welcome to it. I took a semi-intended weeklong blackout from Clapboard, e-mail, the internet and even computers in…
While its seeming a bit anemic, Ive finally put up Clapboards Christmas Logo 2004. Next year, Ill figure out how to do overlays of christmas lights or something – maybe…
Is anyone else as unprepared for the holidays as I am? I sort of doubt it. Im coming off years of unemployment at Christmas time, coupling that with the inability…
Here I am, King of the Rock. I took the rest of these photos (this one was taken by Gwen), of which some Im extremely proud. Marcos produced and directed the thing, it was shot by Chris, and Gwen did the makeup. Angie, the subject of many of these photos, is the singer and extremely-photogenic star of the video we shot. All I did was lug a thing or two and take pitures all day. Im a funny-looking guy up there on that rock, huh? Whatever.
So the pictures in the Read More link are all sort of mid-sized rough scans saved as .jpg files. There are a lot of them, that much is certain. Im putting the pictures of us at work first because I know no one is going to go past the shots of Angie – shes too photogenic. There are a few shots specifically of the lake, too, just because its so amazing-looking. As Ive said before, Im definitely going back.
In other news, work is going well, although Im not on top of the time it takes to do things yet. Friday was the last day of work for a lot of guys I know, so theyre all out of town now, which should leave me free to write and work on MWS stuff through the end of the week. I fly to Philly on Thursday night, so everything I need to do needs to be done by then. I havent even thought about packing, wrapping, anything, really, and I cant imagine that one week from today is Christmas day. Ouch. Geh.
Okay, enough of me. Click thee the Read More link and tell me what you think. Beware, there are a lot of pictures.
I want a deal to produce a feature-length film. Failing that, a couch/loveseat/chair in buttery-soft deep-brown leather would be fantastic. Okay, maybe just peace on earth. The pictures that I…
If you look up the definition of “asshole that got NOTHING done this weekend” in the dictionary, youll see a picture of me. Honestly. This weekend was all about TRYING…
both pics lost to the ravages of time. …MO 2016_1115 I haven’t figured out how to make the pictures bigger (I think this camera can do 640 x 480,…
Today is the day that begins the family tree of the modern Wroath Clan – our genesis, if you will, and Id like to commemorate it by wishing Nana a…
Four years old today. Ive been blogging longer than that, of course, but the domain is pretty firmly established now. I just wanted to note that the domain that has…
So I had my irst real weekend in a long time and it was pretty great. I barely left the house and I dont regret it. Saturday, I spent much…
Its day two of the job. I worked 11 hours yesterday, then went home and shot audition tape with Brad for three more. Its for a really cool gig, so…
There are distinct advantages to being unemployed. I dont know if I frequently enough extoll the virtues of the lifestyle Ive been leading. I complain about money (not inappropriately, as…
Newly affianced and even more newly turned one year older! Congratulations, Mr. Vail, youre piloting the proverbial ship of your own destiny – Im proud to call you a friend.
Heres a strangely fitting use of the Cornucopia topic heading for once. Thanksgivings tomorrow, and I actually will be spending much of the day today in preparation for the feast.…
