One of the neat things about being in film school is that now I have an excuse to buy shit I don't really need. My new line when I think my spending is out of control: "I need it for the movie!"
Case in point: An old SMLE ("smelly" as the doughs and tommies called it). Sure I know someone who said they'd let us borrow his, but I've been wanting one for a while now, and so I say: I need it for the movie, call all around town and suddenly can't find one. Shit. Two years ago I couldn't walk into a gun store without running into one, and then once I'm ready to buy one... I'd get out of bed, trip over something and check what it was, and sure enough, it'd be an old smelly, but now...goddamnit. I eventually found one in Helena, got so excited that I jumped into the car and drove the hour and a half over there and bought it. Of course that meant that I'd not get my usual 6 hours of sleep between school and work, but hey, at least I got a boss rifle, right?

This movie is going to bankrupt me.
