yes, it's finally happened. v at the Big House's request for a copy of the VermeerPlay has finally caused me to drag out the many volumes of drafts and notes and sit down to try and put a clean copy onto the hard drive of my computer. (the previous copy was erased in the horrible not-to-be-spoken-of Demagnetization2002) and needless to say i was procrastinating, even though i had set aside some alone time today, and the ever-soothing Radiohead was playing.
then, i realized that i was afraid of a stack of paper. not to mention a stack of paper that I WROTE. and since i think i'm a loser about 97% of the time, chances are i could very well have been a loser during the time i wrote the stack of paper. so odds are, there wasn't much to be afraid of. all i needed to do was quit waffling over "the best way to approach it" and just type the damn thing and if an idea occurred to me in the moment, then just put it in.
am i done?
no way in hell.
am i 4 scenes in?
you bet!
have i made changes already?
you know it.
will i finish a copy to give to the V-man?
i'm shooting for this week...
in other news...
our cable provider (after responding to my email inquiry that they had no plans to add this channel in the near future) has suddenly added Scream TV to the digital lineup, which i inadvertently discovered while flipping last night. all horror movies all the time? am i there!
and tonight's vegetarian experiment is:Peas, Potato and Eggplant Curry mmmm mmmm curry. Must finish my planned amount of scenes for today and then get to the grocery store to pick up spices.

procrastinating myself this evening...although i am very pleased to see your request from the v-man. woohoo! the vemeer play! the big house! i must say i think about that play and the plath inspired play often. and i wonder and hope that they get finished and produced one day because i like them a great deal. also...there are a bunch of vemeer paintings in the met on regular display and i think of you whenever i walk past them.
