I love my shiny little box

Satellite guy is here. Television! I forgot about it for two whole weeks! What's up with Heroes? Or Lost? Did they get off the island yet? Did Jack Bauer torture somebody? How's Lee coping with the loss of Starbuck? I have no idea.

My landlord won't let the guy put the satellite on the roof, so I'm now seriously obscuring my neighbor's view of the Hollywood hills. They also won't let him drill holes in the balcony to let in the cord. That's what they think, anyway. I say as long as you can cover it up when you move out so nobody knows it was there, who cares if you put a tiny hole in the wall?

I feel I have learned a lesson from my hiatus from TV. I got a lot of work done. My index cards are finished but the story is so loose I clearly have a lot left to plot out. I have to figure out how people break into places and steal stuff. Fortunately I teach a bunch of experts on that subject.

Just kidding. Only one or two of my kids are master thieves.

I got too comfy working with Partner. I wanted to give him the hard parts, but he's too busy and doesn't know if he likes this particular project the way I do. So I'm going to be on my own to figure out how hitmen do things. That's right. It's that kind of screenplay - a hitman and a heist! Partner wants to work on some girlie thing where we all talk about our feelings.

Ooh! Satellite Guy is finished. I'll see you guys in like eight hours.

EDITED at 6:12 p.m.

Okay after watching the stuff that was saved on the DVR I tried to watch actual television and that's when I discovered that the only channel I get is USA. WTF?

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