Stone Cold
Today was not a very good day. I woke up in pain due to a kidney stone, and it went downhill from there. Have you ever had a kidney stone? It is PAINFUL. I would rather go through childbirth, at least you get a kid out of it.
Still I tried to work through the agony. I did a couple of pages on one script, got another script ready to go out, and then I got embroiled in a semi-flame war on a screenwriting site...in other words, I pissed the day away, and I mean that sincerely.
And then tonight, like a bolt out of the blue, I heard from the director of my Christmas movie. It looks like they finally have a distributor for a DVD/TV/cable deal, sold at Cannes. And it's to a big international company. You will know this company.
I am very happy.
But I could have done without the kidney stone. Really.

Great. It's so good to see some snow in July [even if it's in a picture].
Sorry for the kidneys.
There's this vignette, in which a man with a rhinoceros planted in his back goes to see the doctor, and the doctor says:
"I think it may not be kidneys stones after all."
It is the first funny thing it came to me mind.
...
Hope for a quick [temporarily? definitive?] recovery.

Still waiting for Snyder's inteview to appear on the Pitchfest site. Arf. Arf.
Nice things Patricia.

I am feeling better today, but am not ready for that climb to Mt. Everest.
As for the Snyder interview, you and me both. I was very disappointed that it did not appear on the website before the fest, as I thought it would. However, I was assured that the interview did go out in the newsletter they sent out just before the pitchefest, which of course I didn't receive. Blah!
I will see if I can get permission to post it here, it's a great interview.
Oh, don't worry.
If they planned to put it out, I shall wait.
:]
Sorry about the stone-- but happy for your film!
