I have to start writing again

So, 75 weeks since I last posted anything here. I had an accident in November 2007; switched jobs in June of 2008, and became unemployed the same day the Obama Presidency began, January 20, 2009. At least someone started a job that day. My last thinking moment as an employed person was a meditation on the word 'urethane.' Go figure. Fluid applied

Well it does help! I'm doing the gym today. YMCA gave me a scholarship because I'm unemployed (what other fitness club can do that?)- and it's in the Presidio and I've told you, each time I go there (it's all donated property from the Army) I feel like I'm in a movie and I should be seeing Sean Connery walk by. The Golden Gate bridge, really there and not CGI. How can anyone stay depressed in a place like that?

Yeah, Warren. That's where I saw him. He's just too Joss-Cute to be real. The whole show just doesn't connect with me emotionally. It happens with Whedon: as much as I loved 'Serenity' (I have it permanently on TIVO) I felt that most of the high note scenes played flat, missed the mark ('Little Albatross' at the end worked though. Mal as the father River needed) The only bright thing on the show is Tamoh. I saw the 'Frakkin BSG Special' and they were talking about how all the cast and crew are family and how they root for each other, and when Tamoh said it, I saw Dollhouse as the subtext. You're talking to Eddie Olmos and you find out that Joss Whedon wants you for a new series. What Dollhouse needs is a little Tricia Helfer. I guarantee, if Tricia shows up I'll pay attention!
