Alas, that’s not what I’m doing today.

What I am doing — before going to my evening client — is painstakingly revising the final 2 pages of the TV pilot script. Then I will send it back over to Peitor, who will make notes, send it back to me, and then we’ll revise it yet again, together, either Sunday or Monday.

Those final 2 pages are possibly my favorite scenes in the whole show. And to make the scenes work, they just have to be really tight.

Meanwhile…

Peitor is in London right now, working on a film score for an upcoming movie that I can’t wait to see! And in his downtime (i.e., in cafes drinking god only knows what — probably coffee), he’s making even more notes on the entire script.

So, bowling will simply have to wait. (I actually have no clue where there is even a bowling alley out here in the Hinterlands…)

Wow. So this was really, really helpful.

I don’t know if you ever have to deal with trolls online — I only have to deal with them occasionally, thank God. But oddly enough, when I do, it’s usually on Instagram, when I’ve made what seems to be a perfectly harmless comment on someone else’s post. Then other readers of the post — not the person who posted it — begin a verbal assault that won’t quit.

A case in point was last night. It’s actually sad, the number of screaming young white Leftist females out there who are now completely terrified of life because Trump became President again. (Sadly, part of the Leftist programming agenda — it never occurred to them to be terrified of what was actually going on, which Trump, et al, are bringing to a halt.)

I usually make an attempt to be polite but also stick to my guns, but that only pisses them off more.

Anyway, I finally just turned off my phone last night and let it go, but WOW. They didn’t stop. All through the night and into the morning, more and more angry comments. So, anyway. I found this video perfectly timed for me this morning, and also really helpful. It’s actually very compassionate.

Well, it is a sunny day today!! Cold, but sunny. So that alone is fantastic.

And tonight, the client I work with — the 99 year-old blind lady who’s had an incredible life — has 3 frisky & quite huge Labrador Retrievers, and 2 wonderful old big black cats. So it’s a nice way to spend a few hours. Plus, I always learn something new from her.

I really enjoy talking with her, even though we don’t share the same views on politics, we just move past that and spend time talking about other things instead. Her mind is still so sharp, gang. At 99 years old. It is something to strive for.

However, every one of her friends, her family members, one of her children and her husband, have all passed on now. She has 2 grown children and a grown grandchild that are still alive, and some younger neighbors who she’s friendly with — but all those people she knew throughout her life, they are all gone now.

I can’t really imagine how that feels and I’m kinda hopin’ I don’t find out. It’s hard enough being 64 and adjusting to my dad being gone. But I guess we’ll see.

Okay.

Enjoy your Friday, wherever you are in the world!!

Thanks for visiting.

I love you guys. See ya!

I leave you with this!

I had been eagerly anticipating this new TV show on Tubi, which launched last night. I wasn’t crazy about the first episode, but I’m going to give it a chance and let the show sort of settle into itself.

“Generations clash when the award-winning C-suite at Atelier Ad Agency is canceled and pushed out and the Gen Z social media team is put in charge.”

Here is the trailer, in case you’re interested. (Tubi is free, btw.)
