This blog title came too easy- it's the title of one of my favorite songs by Rebecca Sanborn. Funny. Post-Thanksgiving here at out house is one big food hangover. We didn't eat that much- relatively speaking. We don't eat like that that often. So when we do, it takes a day or two to recover.
I did eat turkey to keep the peace. It's easier that way. I'm back on the vegetarian diet- the turkey tasted great, I just felt weird eating it. Turkeys are my friends and I don't eat friends. Sigh. Plus, I've got 25 days until I go to Mexico and I tried to fit into my shorts and bikini. When did I puff up so much? Puff is too kind a word. I'm fat. Looks like I'm going on a detox and raw diet. I could use it- I've been drinking so much coffee and consuming way too much sugar. Blech!
Brett's decided not to go back to school Winter term- thank God. He has some big projects for work coming up Jan-March and he is focusing on making his feature. The wheels are in motion! We're finishing up our big rewrites this weekend. At least we're making a list of all the big edits that need to happen which is huge considering he never has time for anything.
It's been awhile since I've made a film. Will be nice to be back on set, not getting sleep, developing ulcers... gotta love indie filmmaking ; )

Time is Flying
It feels like I was just in Austin a week ago- what gives? Way too much going on + the usual life chaos + buried in rewrites = no concept of time. People talk about how fast time goes by when you have kids. Try script rewrites. Yikes.
Long story short, Austin was awesome. The Calvin Marshall premiere was great- it's definitely a feel-good film and Steve Zahn gave a great performance. It's funny- Brett and I were ready to move to Austin sight unseen about 5 years ago when we were out in DC. It would have been fun for a couple years but the novelty would have worn off fast. Brett needs mountains, oceans, and all that stuff. It's so flat there- I would have gone crazy. Oh well, scratch that one off the list.
Meanwhile, we are really trying to get our script finished with the goal of filming it next year. As we get closer, I'll probably go on a real long hiatus from this blog and start one dedicated to film updates and development. TBD...
I'm going into work early today, this sacred Thanksgiving Eve. The manager wants me to help out in doing catering sales for the restaurant. Never done it before but that hasn't stopped me from jumping in head first in other areas of my life.
Happy Thanksgiving, gobble gobble, and here's to a great holiday season!
