Break time. Will have a cheesesteak for dinner. Left off the soda as I had a lot of soft drinks today and I need to top off the bottle of water I bought.

Anne Rice II

Let me elaborate outside of a post from my BB.  I loved reading Anne Rice novels.  Then the quality kinda failed.   It got boring to me.  it was time to go as a reader.  At the time I took her books up My family was going through a lot of changes:  My parents separated, and my Mom had cancer.  I needed something to fill my mind.  Rice fit the bill.  The crisis passed, and I still read her books.   All was good.    Then the well dried up.  Nothing of hers enchanted me anymore.   Its not to say she could not write.  i was not feeling the material.  I suppose it happens to all of us.   I don't think I ever found a writer I was willing to read several of their books like I did with Rice Let's see what I read:

• Queen of the Damned
• Tale of the Body Thief
• The Mummy
• Memnoch the Devil
• Pandora
• Belinda
• Violin
  

I tried Armand, Taltos, and Violin, but the magic was gone by then.

Having an Anne Rice moment. I miss reading her books. I used to love them. Drama and supernatural hijinks.

Almost tine to sleep. Thinking of a worthy dvd to fall asleep to. As it stands watching "Turu the Terrible" makes me want to sleep.

Saw Transformers 2 today. Not sure how to digest this film. On one hand its got action, however the plot gets weaker. I'm a bit tired of mindless stories.

Did some editing to one of my scripts. A lot of thought went into eliminating passive verbs and how some scenes played out. Cut out some scenes. Felt good too.

Must not be scared to cut scenes from my scripts.

Just got outta class and I am tired. I will pick up a meal and run on home for a power nap. Its what I need. Will wake up and go to wk. Love a routine.

Wrote a little bit more during my break today. Tried to clear up some scenes. Felt like I am making slow and steady progress. Slowly getting sleepy.

Honesty

Is writing about being honest?  At least to yourself what the story is and about should be honest.  Should there be a claim of innocence or ignorance in the mix. 

Been thinking of a new blog idea. Hope to male it real and seen soon. I'm a dervish of ideas I am.

Its lunch time. Will have a burger and fries. Then chill for a bit before work. Class went well. Hope this quarter will be as smooth.

Day two of classes begins. I am very sleepy. Will take. Power nap later. Today os talk of the new Hollywood cinema. Should be fun.

I am gonna try and get mt power nap on. First day of class is smooth. Ready for next class. For now I must sleep. Almost time for work.

I don't feel like sleeping. Will be working tomorrow so I want a good night's sleep. Will break out the sleepytime tea to push m in the right direction.

Satur-Dazed

It was too hot outside.   I had to do a second errand run for some things to make a dinner today.  I also needed paper goods.  I waited too late to drink something cool.  It seems that when I got home at last, I  was fine up until I felt so sleepy.  I know I wasn't really tired, BUT I felt the touch of sleep all over me.  I fell asleep woke up to make dinner, but I should have bought some water with me.   Made sure to buy some bottled water from the store.   

For dinner I'm having steak, mixed veggies, and sauteed onions, mushrooms, and bell peppers.   I let the steaks marinade last night in a sesame ginger sauce.   When its doen it should be fantastic.   Certainly smells good.   Tried the sesame ginger sause before, so I know that it will be ok.  The one aspect of cooking the steak i refined is not putting too much sause on the mean, and watching the hear carmelize and brun the sause to the pan.   

The line at the bank was tedious. It was hot and tiring. I got what I needed done.

Decided the beard had to go. Shaved it off with no hesitation. It was too unmanageable. It was also getting itchy. I'm glad its off my face.

Blah

I need to relax a bit more.   Time to chill and watch a few movies.  Misplaced a few of my DVD's.  Can't find vol 1 of my Utena DVD.  I'm rather irritated.  Want to see it and now I can't.  At least for the moment.   Feeling a tab bit creative.  Better go grab my notebook.   Currently watching Blade II. 

Storm came through last night. Woke up to thunder and lightning. Made myself get up and unplug the electronics. Replugged this morning.

Should have made a post sooner. Went to work feeling positive. Hot outside. A tour horse pooped on the block. Muggy air carried the smell. Yuck.

I have an appointment today. Don't know how long ut will be, but I'm not worried. Its really hot outside. Its a humid heat I can di without.

I feel like I don't know what to write about today. Its rather sad. Perhaps I need some sleep. Playing music hoping for inspiration.

Camp

Was looking for a definition for this term.  Heard it used a few times, and found it to be a little confusing when some peeps used it.   Got the definition from  Mirriam-Webster online.   BTW the use camp has been used to describe writings and films.  Some of the stories were mine that were being described,  hence my curiosity. 

CAMP:  a style or mode of personal or creative expression that is absurdly exaggerated and often fuses elements of high and popular culture.

So just looking at this, we see one aspect of my writing.  We know that I have a vivid imagination, and I know how to think outside the box.  Let us see if I can put it all onto the paper.     

Late in the morning a thunderstorm raged outside. There was plenty of thunder, lightning, and hail. Got up and unplugged all the electronics. Went back to bed.

Will try to chill for the rest of the night. It feels good to lay down and relax.

I told someone I wanted to chang my style of dress. She asked me if I had a girlfriend. I don't but the need for change is strong. What has come over me?

A Brother Has A Plan

Been thinking of revising my final papers for cinema studies to make the publishable.  Something tells me that a hard worked paper should not lay in a box while no one sees them.  If I can turn the Blade Runner/Metropolis paper into gold I can get the FSM paper and BSD papers in top shape.   My paper writing skills are growing, and I'd like to see myself becomming more proactive with paper writing.   I have a lot more to get done.  At least five more classes (not including the screenwriting and professional writing classes I took or will take.  

Neglect

How I have failed to keep up with demands of updating this blog, when I was once faithful to it.  Let's do a recap worthy of my time.   I've been doing a lot of writing for classes.  Spec scripts, final papers (which ALL need revisions), scripts for comics, movies, and even looking to work my way back to prose.   So yes, I've been a writing fool.  Don't want to give up on something that has brought me so much pleasure in the past.   Updates should be in order soon.  

I hate waking up early. My internal clock is so off. I hope it restores itself.
