I often need a Hurculean bought of will to sit myself down at the beginning, but once an idea/script/outline is started and rolling, I get lost. When I start working it's usually many hours before I realize how long I've been at it. My wife will often wake up at 1 AM and ask me what the hell I'm doing. I find I often have to apologize for getting irrationally annoyed at interruptions. :)<br /><br />And once, when she was at a grad school summer program for six weeks, I worked on a script around the clock, only breaking for sleep and my day job. I lost almost 15 pounds and looked like shit. But the script got done in lightning speed and got me a bunch of meetings. Nothing came of them, but still.adam ___________________https://www.blogger.com/profile/01306399494751363973noreply@blogger.com
