Last couple of nights I didn't sleep much, my mind obsessed with all things I need to do to get this film done, and realization of how much I avoid or procrastinate, usually in the name of "there's a million other things to get off my plate first" or "I'm too tired I'll wait for a better block of time" or something like that. Take this blog itself, I find myself resisting doing it mightily, have never gotten into the rhythm, the habit of just doing it. When I started this blog a few months ago I had some vague idea that I would intimately share the inner workings of the creative process, and be a fun thing to do besides. And that's not the case, yet. But I keep going in fits and starts. My friend and Blog consultant Bud (www.sonicmedia.com) is on my case now more to just keep blogging and it's helped. You know, I need people and deadlines to please and be accountable to. Otherwise stuff doesn't get done.
It's funny how this blog spell checker keeps flagging "Blog" and "blogging."
But enough self-referential blog stuff. There are more important things I am procrastinating about today, namely:
1. I must get a proposal to TIM, the cell-phone company that I met with weeks ago to pitch for sponsorship.
2. Review the editing script and delve into the transcripts
3. Asking someone for money to save my ass for this month
When really I would just prefer to crawl under the covers you know?
