Better choices

cmk418So I opted to watch an episode of Oz - Failure to Communicate (6.4) & then the 3rd period of the Ducks game instead of baseball and now that I've switched back I'm glad I did. It's 12-5. That's a lot of sick baseball I missed. I may put in the next epi of Oz to purge this from my system.
I didn't have to do the quasi-solo today because one of the other gals showed up and because I think our choir director wussed out and had the guys back on melody for the most part. Rehearsal for the Friday thing was all me and, man, was my voice off. I got an e-mail from the princess, doesn't look that she'll be joining us any time soon which is a pity.
It's amazing I'm still awake - I had really crappy sleep last night - I just was in that realm from 1AM to 6AM (when my alarm went off) where my eyes were closed but I was conscious of everything, I did manage to have a freaky dream which seemed like the plot of some fictional thriller (the President's young kids were being kidnapped and I was the person to save them, I dialed 911 but couldn't say anything because the kidnappers were in the room). I don't usually read those kind of books so it wasn't a continuation of some kind of Alex Cross thing that I was immersed in (I love "Along Came a Spider"). I have no idea where it came from yet, during it all, my brain kept telling me I was dreaming and all I needed to do was open my eyes. Bizarre.
Yes, I'm still trying to continue my productive period so I grabbed a Said prompt from the 5 for 6. That should slow me down a little. I scanned the list four or five times and still kept coming back to the same one. I just have to figure out my plan of attack and jump in and go. I've been writing quite a bit of really dark stuff lately. Interrupting to say they just showed a preview for "Justice" and at the end of it Eamonn Walker has a great big smile on his face and I just fell in love with him all over again. I tried watching that show - I have a hard time feeling sympathy for wealthy defendants who can buy their way to an innocent verdict. Even if they do hire Eamonn Walker and he smiles all the time (which disappointingly, he does not). Back to topic, I don't know why I'm in this place where I'm staying away from the romance and humor for a moment and launching into rape and killing one's child and overdosing and what amounts to Timmy Kirk's last night on death row and however I'm going to torture Said this week. But I'm actually getting it done. Long time ago, when I was writing my first screenplays I had to get to a point where I had to challenge myself to write something where nobody was dead or nobody died. It took me years to get away from it, and now I'm getting back into the dark side of writing, and I gotta admit, it seems to come easier than the hearts and flowers, especially where a show like "Oz" is concerned.
My sister still hasn't started watching Season One. She's had the DVDs for five days now, you think she'd get started. ;-> Time to get to work.
