good morning
It's 7:30 AM and I'm wide awake. Am I jet lagged?
It is also possible that I'm just awake because I went to sleep pretty early last night; I forgot to have food most of the day, then kinda collapsed into bed when I came back from getting a sandwich. Plus I have something like a cold that I caught at SPX or on the way home from it. Probably on the way home; I hung out in the DC airport for like four hours, waiting for my flight in an environment that smelled like “I will probably get sick breathing this air” the instant I stepped in.
And here I am going to Rainfurrest today and tomorrow. To SPREAD MY DISEASE. And to dance. If I have the energy. Don't kiss me if you go too.
The only useful thing I did yesterday was to send off the brief addendum I had to my Nickelodeon pitch. They told me my show bible was pretty interesting, but they were explicitly looking for outlines/boards/etc for 2-3 min cartoons, and gave me until Friday to throw one together and send it to them. I thanked them, and did a first draft in the time between the pitch meeting and SPX's show floor opening up; it sat dormant while I travelled and spent the first day home with Nick hanging around, then did some minor edits and sent it off. I'd had some notions about loosely timing it to see if it actually fit into 3 minutes (probably not, it's probably more like 4-5 unless I time it super aggressively) and editing it until it did, but I didn't have anything like the energy to do that.
Guess I'll go shower. I haven't in a couple days due to general post-SPX lethargy. And next week I get to get on ANOTHER airplane and do ANOTHER con! But only a trip down to the Bay Area this time.
