An Open Letter to Thor's Day

[jackshoegazer]

Hello, Thursday.

The semester is winding down and I've got several papers to write.  Most of my actualy classes are over - they're just work days so I'm working from home today.  I have to revise three of my English papers and write a paper for my film class.  I re-watched High Fidelity with the vague idea of writing a paper on either adaptations or music in film, but this morning I'm not feeling it.  Maybe I'll re-watch Memento and write a paper on editing and continuity.

In the meantime, I'll putz around the house, do some laundry, vacuum, wait for the afternoon thunderstorms, find something green to photograph, obsessively check the stats of my play's video, eat a tunafish sandwich, curse H&R Block for effing up my stimulus check, take a nap (maybe), read a book about sad, sad, Abraham Lincoln, but not in this particular order.

Sincerely,
Jack Shoegazer

P.S.  I had my first ever zombie dream last night.  I don't remember any details, except for the moment when I thought, in dream, "Wow!  I have to remember I'm havingmy first ever zombie dream!"

Your Thursday sounds nifty. :) I think mine will be spent research project management software and finishing a certification project because I have no pressing work issues.

It's not too bad so far. I'm still in my jammies and I think I've narrowed my paper down to Genre in Memento: Honey, I Broke the Conventions

Zombie dreams rule.

I was kind of enjoying it :)

Do you remember any accessorized weaponry? Baseball bats, chainsaws, or shotguns?

*shrug*

Zombie dreams are better with implements of destruction.

I enjoyed watching your short play. It must be very satisfying to see something you've written performed live.

Mabrouk!

Thank you for watching :D I should have a better video of it later. My camera is definitely not so good in the dark.

I now understand why some writers have issues with directors and actors because if I were someone else, I could have been offended that they made it funny instead of serious as I thought when I wrote it. However, they did an amazing job with it and I loved it :D

Wow. I totally should have come to your play the other night, as I live very, very close now. But I didn't. And I have been regretting it ever since about 8:30 that night. And so it's very interesting that...I had MY first ever zombie dream a couple of nights ago! Maybe it was Tuesday, even? I was hunting for zombies. I had a cart with a horse pulling it and a horse riding in the back of it. I was really good at what I did, because I knew how to carry everything I needed to survive with me. And I woke up thinking, I don't even LIKE zombie movies!

Weird. Really.

I'm nt a fan of zombie movies per se. I can enjoy them, I just haven't sought them out since I was in middle school :P

I'm sure I'll write more plays :) You can come next time.

I just got a chance to watch the video of your play - how awesome that must've been to watch your own work in action (so to speak)! :) Wish that I could have seen it live!

[jackshoegazer.livejournal.com]

Thanks! It was awesome. I can't even describe it. I can't wait to do it again :D

I totally mucked up all your plans by driving the community car around, didn't I? :P

As always :D
