of the Shatner variety

Wednesday, May 30th, 2007

Yesterday on the bus I became entranced by a man’s hairplugs. It wasn’t a particularly convincing job and this fascinated me to no end. I spent the remaining 45 minutes of my time on the bus trying to look while trying not to look like I was looking.
He was about my age, in a suit, […]

One pigs challenge

I thought I should post a quick update to the state of my world. It’s an interesting time and perhaps writing it out well help me grapple.
Split Pillow’s Challenge film event is coming up again this year. I’ve got commitments from the actors as well as people to help with the writing, filming, and […]
