Crawling from the Wreckage – or just moving forward.
I think i see the light at the end of the tunnel…
Did you hear a train whistle?
Now, I don’t want to seem overdramatic.
I know my life is not “bad” per se. I have had fortunate to have had so many opportunties given to me.
I know that the only person who is responsible for any anxiety I feel is me, and outside of those people who have known me through my various incarnations, and known the me beneath it all, what I do and say here will not affect you much.
There is something about tracking one’s progress like this, in open forum tho that motivates someone like me to get off my ass, get in the game. By putting it here, you can call me on it. I am making a commitment to the universe, but really with myself
OK – I have 4 days off in a row. (it has been since Sept 2007 since that happened)
The writer in me wants out, so I plan on spending from tonight til sunday working on a 1st draft of a pilot script. 4 acts, 45minutes in length Single camera family drama, which I am currently calling “My Generation”
By the end of 2008 I want to try character work, so I plan on trying to write 3 spec scripts, for current shows.
Thoughts?
S.O.S – Saving One’s Self
Well…
This is not an abandoned blog.
I used to fancy myself a writer. But I haven’t been moved to write much lately. I am going to change that.
Starting now.
I am going to be completely honest with you. My life is tragically of course. There has been no big thing that has derailed tho. Just a series of little things. Wrong choices, bad decisions… I am now just getting back to where I wanted to be 10 years ago. I see that me, in 1990’s, already having made some bad choices, but the normal things people do in their early 20’s, nothing that was insurmountable. I knew what the mistakes were. I just couldn’t see the long term concesquences.
I, like most people, tend to think of myself as good person, with a reasonable moral center. I always thought of myself as the hero in the story. But my own myopic sense, did not see the road ahead, where I was going. I made safe choices, took the easiest road. My choices were influenced by fear, and selfishness. I told myself I was sacrificing opportunities for a noble end.
I was just afraid. Afraid of risk. Real risk. And without real risk, There is no real reward in life.
So, here I am. closing in on 40, alone, and adrift.
I have held on to the belief that, someone would be the lighthouse, leading me to where I am suppose to be.
So I spent the last 10 years as a hopeless myopic romantic.
I can’t save anyone else, if I can’t save myself.
Sorry I have been MIA of late…
Hey there sports fans…
I have been neglecting all of you. My apologies, life, as most of you know, has been kinda crazy.
Hope to get back to sharing thoughts with you, the world has been a pretty amazing place since I left.
Let’s talk soon.

Shays concedes the Ct 4th
Decision ‘08 – Shays concedes
Long serving Republican Congressman Christopher Shays concedes the Connecticut 4th district.
That means there is not a single Republican member of Congress from New England.
I have started to hear fears from some older voters… not for what this new swing means politically, but I have actually heard some folks say they fear for Obama’s safety, and how fractured we are still becoming between left and right.
