stop the presses

there was an actual PLOT DEVELOPMENT on mad men tonight! in other news, the mariners are unmistakably headed to the world series, and the united states has enthusiastically embraced socialism.

is this real life?

a producer has asked if i have any projects i’d like to option or develop. it’s one of those questions that has so many answers that it’s hard to answer. like “do you have any feelings about republicans?” or “can you tell me anything about drug chemistry?” or “what are some noteworthy meerkat behaviors?”
i suppose it’s a pretty good problem to have. now i just have to make sure i don’t let the enthusiastic creativity mutate into aggressive craziness.

a song of ice and cuddles

dreamt last night that i was going to see the iron throne (or maybe usurp it; that seems to be the thing to do), which was conveniently located in some part of the sloth sanctuary in costa rica.

and just so there isn’t sentimental drivel at the top of the page…

i promise you, if i ever see another bullshit scene in a movie or tv show where a woman takes off her clothes (revealing her everyday sexy lingerie, of course) in front of a man to prove she’s not wearing a wire… i will seriously stab the next male screenwriter i see in the face.
note to the male screenwriters i know: tell your peers to curb the sexist clichés or embrace the fact that someday, women will unite and cut you. and we will cut you in original, non-tropey ways. KNOCK IT OFF. IT’S INSULTING AND IT’S BORING. WRITE BETTER.
there. sentimental pining and slightly political raging cancel each other out, and now i am neither an intimidating feminist or a sappy sucker. universe, you may go about your business.

say you’ll remember

i’ve been trying to think of something sentimental and cryptic to say since the clock struck midnight. i walked through the wetlands as they buzzed with spring life. i took myself out to lunch. i parked on a hill so i could stare at the mountains. down near sea level, they only just barely peeked out over the tops of the trees. they could have passed for clouds. there was an article online, then a song playing in the restaurant where i ate lunch. a more spiritual person might think that they were signs.
none of it ever amounted to much. i still don’t have anything to say. i still feel like a tool for even wanting to. it’s been too long, it’s not my place, it’s a little pathetic. but i guess those are sort of the hallmarks of romantic feels. and i guess it’s better to anonymously raise a glass and wax nostalgic than to attempt any actual stalking reconnecting. the universe is going to need to be a little more on the nose with its signals if it wants me to do anything more direct.
until then… happy birthday, architect of my loveliest memories.

really slow clap

i am officially a Published Author, in the tiniest of ways. i edited a few pages of this textbook, which came out in the US today. you can even see my name in the downloadable sample chapter. if this were an RPG achievement, i would have unlocked some useless skill that lets you change your wig mid-battle, or something to that effect. but skill points are skill points, i suppose. stay tuned for that game-changing sci-fi masterpiece.
