I had a busy (and hot!) weekend. A little too busy... I still have loads of things to do before my apartment is ready for guests. My mom will be here in four days - ack! And this weekend was so disgustingly hot I couldn't get my apartment to cool down at all. I'm really glad it will be cooler this weekend. Oh! And I bought a parasol at the last day ( Read more... )

Yay new icon love!

I finally got the second disk of Shameless Season 1 in the mail (do you have any idea how hard it is to get that show in the States?), and I was suddenly struck by a deep and sudden love for nudity and cursing. It's not because I'm a horny 12 year old boy - It's because I'm a Post Coordinator.

After an extremely trying week ( Read more... )

Caity, if you ever get sick of Jon (after pigs fly, of course!) he can gladly come live under my bed for a while. That moment when he gave his microphone to Marketa Irglova so she could give her acceptance speech was priceless. I literally yelled with joy when "Falling Slowly" won Best Song. Yay for indies!

Quick stuff today!

I went picketing this morning at Warner Bros on the 6-9am shift! Well... 6:30 to 9am, cause I got a slow start this am. I'll post more on this later in an f-locked post, but suffice it to say it was a really great experience and I met some really nice guys who shared some writing/industry advice. And boy were we bundled up ( Read more... )

I spent the majority of the extremely wet and rainy (yay!) weekend indoors, unpacking and cleaning. I also finished act two of my original pilot, and I've come to the crushing realization that it's not as perfect on paper as it is in my head. Cue the notecards!

For those of you who know me well, you know I like to sit around and chill. A Saturday filled with just a grocery store run, two good movies, and some knitting = a great Saturday. Sometimes after the stress of the week, I just want to relax. Anyway, this past weekend was shaping up to look at lot like my example Saturday, when all of a sudden, a ( Read more... )

Buy a box of Pencils for $1 (you can spare a buck or ten, right?) and send them to some moguls!

Much more info here! Read it cause I'm too lazy to summarize. I'm going to wake up at the crack of dawn to go picket. Yay! Which means I have to go to bed now and stop watching Studio 60. Oops. And I have to finish my sign. Crap ( Read more... )
