you can't talk to a psycho like a normal human being

"I definitely wanted to make it a popcorn, summer movie" -Michael Bay on THE ISLAND.
"THAT'S ALL YOU EVER MAKE YOU FUCKING IDIOT!!" -Me, yelling to Michael Bay on my television screen.
What a ridiculous thing to say! Like you're capable of doing anything other than a popcorn summer movie you fucking hack. And really shitty bottom of the barrel popcorn summer movies at that.

Anyway, with that out of the way... David read my short story, "Birdwatching" today. We've been talking about adapting it into a screenplay, which is so cool. For some reason I never expected him to be interested in making BIRDWATCHING, so it's pretty cool to see that he was really enthusiastic about it and that he's throwing in some really funny ideas. "Spaced" is becoming quite an influence, much to my excitement. We talked for about an hour about it and I'm really excited to see what happens as it makes it's way to a screenplay. Then we watched more FIREFLY. I'm making him a geek, too!!

How much do we love "Swallowed in the Sea" from X&Y? It's possibly overtaking "Fix You" as my favorite track on the album. Tonight I heard the new Lizz Wright album, "Dreaming Wide Awake". We got a copy at work and I slapped my name on that sucker after hearing one song. It's really beautiful and I just adore her voice. I know it's not everyone's thing, but give it a try kids.
