Anyone for a nightcap?

To the title question: Yes yes yes yes yes.

I need a celebratory something. I finished my script today!! Go meee, go meee.

Hoo-farking-ray! Wazzit bout?

So if I offered to defenestrate your mossy grotto with my Leviathan, would you get all swampy?

Yep.

First, YAY for 00Syd! High five!

Now, it 4pm and I am having a Chard. I made sure to eat first. And I am toasting my friends, both within Lit and without. I am privileged to know some of the best people ever.

Otherwise, I am ready for today to be well over with.

Six margaritas and a half bottle of Spanish red. I am grateful to the gods of New England laconicism. Without them I might be in a refrigerator box tonight.

I'll say it again...

Riddle wrapped in an enigma, you are.

Honestly, I have become fond the word humid, lately. No relation to the desert in which I live. I think.

I still, however, do not like the word "boobies." Unless its non-sexual, girl-talk...as in "do my boobies look OK in this dress?" And even then, it must be my very best friend uttering those words.

p.s. don't ask me why the word "panties" doesn't squick me. It probably should. But it doesn't.

p.p.s And my very favorite word of all time is "serendipity." It is a really good word in a lot of ways. And it rolls off the tongue just beautifully....

"ointment"

Thank you.

I'm impressed with MWY's ever changing avs lately. Getting ready for a little vodka and diet cranberry. It's great. Only 5 calories. I don't think diet soda is all that good for you. This way I get all my C.

Diet cranberry soda?
What's wrong with plain old cranberry juice?

I'm in agreement about diet sodas, so I don't drink soda at all. But I do drink juice.

And vodka and cranberry juice, aka Cape Cod, if I'm not mistaken, is a fine summer drink.

Let me know if I misinterpreted your post.

However I think we will probably agree on our opinions re: MWY's AVs. Even if I don't like change.

For now, I am alcohol free. I had a spectacular afternoon and am feeling totally re-energized about where I need to be.

I'm enjoying the revolving avs myself, in fact. The current one is much like a paddle that I saw for sale in a shop in Milwaukee. I have plans to buy one the next time I'm up there.

I want to know what the small print, beneath the photo, says.

I feel like an asshole because I never answered your question! It's a Mad Men spec, and I'm pretty happy with it. If I'd had a little more time and less other stuff to do, I think I could have made it even better, but I think it's pretty darn good for what it is. I've just entered it into three different contests, and hopefully I'll get something I can put on my resume, and maybe a little cash Wish me luck!

No worries!

Cool and good for you. Digits are crossed for contests and $$. Interesting, I've read a lot of scripts but I've never tried writing one.

I don't think I ever asked what aspect of the film biz you're most interested in. Writing? Directing? Both?

Haven't watched any Mad Men yet but I hear it's quite good.

I'm most interested in writing, and specifically writing for TV, mainly for the reason that it is MUCH more do-able than writing for film. My vague plan is to work at some post production house or another that's involved with TV (tons of them in NYC), and then try to get any job working for anything TV, and hope that somewhere along the way I meet the right people, and get them to read my spec's, and find some work writing on something. Film is awesome, but much less practical for me. Especially since I never want to leave NYC.

Mad Men is ridiculously excellent. Highly recommended.

Good Luck! Way to go, 00Syd! It's a pretty cool show... just started watching it and now have to catch up! ;-)

Drank the rest of my red wine... missed my pet by THIS *holds fingers up a gnats ass apart* MUCH!!! Work kept me there almost an hour and 45 minutes later than normal! I'm cranky and out of booze! Will definitely need to stock up this weekend!

It's a juice. They just take out most of the calories. Very strong. It's almost better if you cut it with water.

Finishing a bottle of Rodney Strong Cabernet. Getting mellow in the face of a non-mellow life.

On the dengue island, waiting for my very late flight. (2:20am!). Going to go eat some new food!!! Then I'll pop a melatonin so hopefully I can snooze until Auckland.

Ah, feels so good to be on the move, again.

Decaf coffee whilst centering away from the hubbub and confinement of home.

Finally kicking back with my standard.

All of my kids were here today, with one an unexpected surprise.
Amazing conversation. I am in awe of my older childrens' maturity, especially when I think back to being their ages.

Did I do that?
Not alone, anyway. So here's a glass raised to their Dad and all my friends who helped me, in little ways or big, to raise my children. We did well.

Happy Mother's Day!
