I wish I could say the April showers are behind us but I know better. All I know is May is less than 24 hours away and the flowers are about to hit full force. Bring on the sunshine, flowers, pollen and allergy meds.
Last night marked the first major overhaul on my script- changed up a couple minor things that have huge effect on the protagonist and the overall feel of the story- but in a good way. Obviously. The story seems to click now and is a lot more approachable. From a producing standpoint it's a lot easier to swallow as well. This project is very "do-able" and I feel even better presenting it as a low-budget project. My main concern is getting Brett's film going- we've discussed the story in and out, visuals, characters, arcs, music, everything. Now we just need to hunker down and get a solid treatment as a blueprint for the first draft.
We are also embarking on a large scale international project that is just starting to pick up momentum. We're at the stage of lacing up the running shoes and stretching out- if you want to take an athletic approach to where we stand. Until emails start getting returned, research completed, and a solid game plan comes into effect I'm in a holding pattern.
I've got some other things cooking- better to have multiple plates spinning. Bodies in motion stay in motion.
After a year+ of neglecting the back yard I weed-whacked and mowed my way thru close to 2 feet of grass. It still has some trouble spots but is a major improvement compared to what it was before. Now to figure out the best strategy for the 6 tomato plants I bought at Costco. A bit of a disappointment- supposed to be an organic salsa kit but I grabbed one that didn't contain peppers. However I do have 6 extremely varied tom plants that should yield a bounty of veggies this summer.
Preparing for the Blazer game tonight. I don't think Brett can handle a loss. I don't think the neighbors can handle the swearing and yelling coming from the upstairs TV room. Oy.
And, per Brett's request, I have to mention Oliver, my rabbit. Ver.
