So my dad has thyroid cancer. It's extremely treatable (this kind of thyroid cancer, anyway) and they caught it early. Surgery will happen in a couple weeks.

He's survived cancer before...prostate cancer 10 years ago. Then, as now, it was the best variety of bad news: caught early, slow growing cancer, good odds. And yeah, it turned out relatively okay, as far as that goes....

I really don't update this enough.

It goes like this:

January...through a week or two ago I've been assistant editor for an Austin based indie filmmaker. A major one.

It's been awesome. Lots of work...long hours, but really, it's the job I moved here to get. And less than a year later, I got lucky.

And now...now I'm unemployed again. Ahhhh, the life of a...

Well, got a great gig in Austin...it may end soon, but I hope they can keep me on somehow. Yay!

Actually, it was my dream place to get into. But I'm not in my usual department. I'm usually in "editorial." Now I'm in Visual FX. Still in Post, though, so I don't have to change my name. smile

So good news!

The bad news: dating sucks!!!...

Lost the job. Boooo. But for the best. I think.

Sighhhhhhh. Back to the pavement pounding.

Poor Posty, hope you find something better!

Good luck, ME. I may or may not lose my job tomorrow...so I hope I do not...and can recover.

Spun out into insecurity...makes it hard to be creative.

We'll see.

Thanks, Mr. Posty!

Tell 'em to save the drama for your mama!

Without going into too much detail, 2009 really sucked for me. Lots of life changing...relationship changing stuff.

Career in a funk. Surrounded by narcissists who suck the blood out of me creatively, and then, without a thank you, take my work away. And so on...Moving to Austin until LA learns some manners.

So 2010 is the year I get back on track. 2010 is for...

Ok, kids. I'm moving to Austin.

Indie film in LA is in almost as bad a state as studio film. Seriously, it's remakes, and movies about toys and boardgames.

Fuck that. I can do this shit from home. And Austin > LA.

So...there.

So much douchebaggery in the world.

Not so much a blog, but an observation.

Anyway this indie movie I'm directing...and wrote...has 5 great perfect for the roll actors...(you've heard of them, i swear) and still NO MONEY. Which happens.

It is what it is. Except that it turns out that the person who reps the film for financing HASN'T DONE SQUAT for the last 3...
