Sorry I missed you: I'll return tomorrow

I've had guests at my house for two weeks, but today is the last day. First it was my niece, then my parents, then Beefcake's parents.

We did lots of touristy things, then we fixed the house and spruced up the yard. Because that's what parents do - they come to your house and then take you to Home Depot SEVEN TIMES in four days. The lady in the paint aisle now knows my name and my mom's name and my mother-in-law's name and much information about our lives and household chore needs.

Tomorrow I plan to watch two weeks worth of TV. I will take a two-hour break in the middle of the day to get back to writing and I will try to work out, but my day is primarily devoted to vegging out, because I am emotionally drained.

It's been so long since I saw my screenplay, I don't even know what it's about anymore. Something about a wedding dress, I guess.

  1. Maybe that's good? You can come back at it with fresh eyes. :)

    It's like when you go to a theatre to see a movie and they show so many trailers before hand that you forget for a minute what you came to see in the first place.

    Do you feel a giant action fight scene in Home Depot coming to mind?

  4. I second Unk. I had no idea you and Beefcake tied the knot. Congrats.

  5. Oh, we didn't tie the knot, but that's just a legal issue. She's pretty much my mother-in-law.

    Emily:

    a brief observation: you like cats!
    how come your site blogspot's lay out is different than Carson R's blogspot site? ( they are both blogspots)

    just curious.

  7. Blogspot offers different layouts. I chose one and had a friend adjust it to fit my needs.

Please leave a name, even if it's a fake name. And try not to be an asshole.
