So, headed to Escondido tomorrow for extended family pre-Christmas. Picking up my niece on the way in Azusa. She just started going to college at AP. She's had more than her fair share of problems to overcome growing up, so It will be interesting to catch up with her as I haven't talked to her as an adult, well, ever probably.

So, I'm going to try to finish writing a new feature script before New Years... said the man who got up at 3pm and is currently residing in his underpants in front of the computer playing freecell.

I love you. 
So, spent the weekend working on a music video shoot for The Radioactive Chickenheads. The band wears foam rubber chicken heads (though the lead singer is a carrot and his girlfriend is a tomato.) Check them out here: http://www.radioactivechickenheads.com/.
Should be a fun video. I hope so, as it was 14 hours on Saturday and 9 hours on Sunday up at a farm in Acton....

Today's post brought to you for no discernable reason in the style of Paul Harvey.
Hello SG'ers...this is Surly. And this is the rest of the story for the last month... news you might have missed.
Thanksgiving. A time for gathering family, children, perhaps even the pets of those children. Dogs. God, spelled backwards if you will--with an 'S'. And if those two dogs have...

We need to post something in spookshow. I think it's approaching that point where it gets deleted. I've been thinking about a suitable topic with very little success.

Beautifully written and the photos are beautiful too. I'd let you sit at the 'adult table' at my house. 
I'm glad you had such a nice time. It's always good to get away and get a change of scenery once in awhile.

OMG me and Esther look so Cheesy! 
So, got back from Kauai today. We scattered my father's ashes near Nawiliwili Harbor. There's an old lighthouse that was built the same year my dad was born. He thought it would be a great resting place. My Mum took one of the golf balls out of his golf bag and wrote all our names on it and tossed it in too. Then we each...

Renew account? Check. Write first journal since September? It's coming still.
I woke up 45 minutes ago and I can't sleep. I think I will call in to work. Maybe I'll write a journal later after I get some sleep.
<insert puckered monkey mouth> Hooooooooo! <resist sucky face>

awwwwwwww that's adorable.
hmmmm i suppose those history channel specials could be horrifying. but if you're into the supernatural supposedly halloween is a day where the connection to the other side is stronger than at other points during the year
yeah you were right. as soon as i could find time to go to an SGNC thing i met a ton of cool awesome people. hooray for SG. and congrats on meeting your fiancee here. that's awesome
i have to get netflix. i don't have cable and i'm stuck wtih only CBS and ABC
no law and order. it's killing me.
i'm always on the scout for horror movies that have a little more behind them than cornsyrup and foam. though corn syrup and foam can be good. especially when added to bad acting for laughs. the indie film i work on forever ago sure was a cornsyrupy craptacular laugh out loud (but shouldn't have been laughing after all it was premiere) good time

doctashock:
what's the latest on the script?
So, busy week ahead. Need to finish my two script rewrites, get them out to a few people, then get my stuff together for Hawaii on Thursday. And it would probably help if I recycled all those chocolate milk containers.

Good luck with the busy week! I feel ya there!
jj_r0x0rz:
yea getting stuff done before a trip is such a hassel
So, on Halloween night I had a dream about my father. He was seated in a familiar chair. I was seated nearby. At one point he began to chastise me in the lecturing harangue I grew up with, but I told him to pipe down, I wasn't going to listen to it. In the dream I felt drunk, which probably afforded me the cajones to...

for a second there i thought you were a West Ham fan on a rampage
But you are quite correct.
A girl should always have a supply of descent sized hammers at her disposal for those 'tricky' moments in life
The dream about your Dad sounds quite reassuring to me, as if you've dealt with and accepted how he was, and won't let it influence you anymore, and yet also accepting that he wanted to care for you.
I rarely dream about my Dad, and athough we fell out almost every time we met I miss him badly.
Oh, nice card too
