Granted, I'm not bitching about how I have to go to Comic-Con. Comic-Con is what we call the glorious highlight of my entire life (or at the very least, a fun weekend away). There's just an awful lot to do in the meantime -- friends to have drinks with and screenplays to cover and screenplays to write and reviews to write...
Today, I at least managed to accomplish a few things -- read five screenplays and covered three of them, wrote a page of screenplay, answered a lot of email, wrote thank you notes for graduation presents, did accounting and organizing things, finished reading a book... I'm now going to start filling out my application for the Sundance TV Lab and watch one of the many Katherine Hepburn movies now resting on my TiVo. Holiday, perhaps?
These are very busy days ahead. But last night, I got to eat at Fresh Choice, the greatest buffet restaurant of all time. An experience so powerful, it deserves its own entry.
