Rainy Saturday afternoon randomocity

Just finished another pass through my spec script, Seer. This is after I've added some new scenes, rewrote some dialog, made some minor changes to the plot.

I'm still happy with it, though right now I think it's too long. I have no  idea what to cut, though. I love the characters, and I think it's an interesting story. Hopefully it'll make it's way to the big screen and audiences will feel the same way.

Right now I'm sitting and watching a Project Runway marathon on The Style Network. Believe it or not I dig that show, though I don't watch it anymore. For one thing, I could spend most of the day staring at Heidi Klum. For another, who doesn't dig Tim Gunn? For yet another, fashion design is an art form I know almost nothing about and I'm hoping to learn. I actually think I have, too, a little. I'd never entertain thoughts of becoming a designer, but I am cultivating an appreciation of it.

As the title indicates it's drizzly this afternoon. Not raining very hard, just enough to wet the ground. I actually kinda like it lke this, as long as I'm not driving anywhere--people in this city just freak the fuck OUT when it rains a little bit and they're driving. I could understand it if it's coming down really hard, but we are talking just a little more than a mist.

Atari is doing about the same. He's not getting around all that well, because of the arthritis, but he seems to be feeling okay other than that. He's a little pissed right now because I gave him a bath but he'll get over it.

The plan is for me to be done with this rewrite by Monday, maybe. I want to have it as finished as possible before sending it off to have it read--you have to respect busy people's time and the person who is going to read this for me is doing me a huge favor. Just because she's a close friend that doesn't mean I can take advantage of her and waste her time by sending her crap.

That's my weekend. What are you up to?
