Monday, June 13, 2005 The Pitch: It's like Cube Two: Hypercube meets The Wedding Planner! I've been greatly enjoying writing lately--so much so I've been thinking about quitting.Not permanently or anything (I think). But with the wedding being just a hair over three months away, I'm trying to get my priorities in order. I've been having good luck with writing in the morning but I'll be honest: I do not want to be my typical porky ass self when I get married. Oh sure, I've lost over thirty pounds since meeting Edi, but I would like to lose more. I would like to be fit, or as fit as I can be, so that we can make it through the wedding and trot about merrily on the beaches of wherever-the-hell-we-end-up-honeymooning without me worrying that someone will see us and think Edi is being attacked by a blobby luminescent jellyfish. And one of the best ways to avoid that horrific scenario would be to get my butt in gear and back to the gym in the mornings before work--which would interfere with my prime writing time. Also, there are my various web commitments: here, SC, and my lonely Lazy Bastard site. Intuition tells me I should get a copy of Movable Type, learn how to make it work, and take this blog over to Lazy Bastard. While I'm at it, I should learn PHP and revise the LB site so the movie reviews are searchable, modular and easy to update. Pessimism, in the guise of common sense, tells me I should close this up, leave Lazy Bastard for dead--I think I registered and paid for it through 2009 or something--let Mr. H sort out his own blog, and figure out how to get paid for my writing. (I admit that some, if not all, of this line of thought may have developed after writing close to 2400 words for CE and getting a mere solitary comment for my troubles). Anyway, it's not as sour grapeish as that last fact makes it sound, or at least I hope it isn't. But yeah: time is at a premium over the next three months, four days and I've got to make some decisions about where my priorities will lie. posted by Jeff Lester | 6:42 PM | |
