So what do you do if your life has been reduced to frustration, lack of ambition and bad TV? Well, apparently you sit and watch "Tarzan and the Lost City" at 2 in the morning. In all fairness I didn't watch all of it, but it was on, and it was very, very, very bad. So bad in fact that it helped light a fire under my ass to continue a couple projects: the first, a new NEP track (which isn't really associated with anything at this point) called "Stevie Goes Marching" and continued work on a short story charmingly entitled "Front Lawn Chair to the Apocalypse".

So other than that, what's going on you ask? Well, it's a mixed bag--a new Feature should be in the works (as was mentioned earlier) and I'm deeply stoked about it. On the downside, another rejection letter for All Things... showed yesterday. Now I don't know what the average writer's experience is, but so far this kinda sucks. I shall persevere, but honestly it would be nice for something to work out soon.

Right now Bea is curled up beneath a chair to hide from the heat lightening. Dogs are funny.

Anyway, here's a non-masculine thing to rot your brain with...
