I know that setting goals that are completely unrealistic can in-fact work against you but this time I don't think that's been the case. I've had a spec script that's been in the first draft stage for well over a month and I keep on going back to fine tune the first two Acts while letting the back-end slide. I know the basics of the story but without having the complete episode on paper and fattening it up to the appropriate page length. It's part worry about "what next" but the other part is that perpetual daemon of procrastination that makes you watch "I Want That" on Fine Living at 3 in the morning instead of tackling the freakin' script.
Just putting that line down on the screen makes me realize how much of a douche I sound like whining about it.
All month long I've just been feeling like life was sailing by...when I'm the one who's just been forgetting what side of the tube I like being in control of more.
Oh, and if my Grandpa is reading this...I'll be holding your nickname for me in a couple years. Thanks for reminding me.
