I'm so not a screenwriter, but I regularly read John August's screenwriting blog, because I enjoy a good story, and I enjoy hearing a writer of stories explain how such stories come about. I enjoyed this post, but particularly the comments (which, as a bonus, feature a guest appearance by my friend Jeff who I don't hear from nearly enough).

Handmade for Christmas
Among the many fine and thoughtfully-chosen gifts I received this Christmas was the Domo-kun on the left of this photo. I had coincidentally brought the right-hand Domo (purchased at Target at Halloween, when he was their spokesmonster) home for Christmas photo shenanigans. And then on Christmas morning I unwrapped this lovely hand-crocheted Domo that Meg made me!
Are they not awesome together?

Merry Christmas
It’s been a quiet Christmas here at Hacienda Bridge. After a strenuous Christmas Eve filled with cooking, cleaning, an emergency client visit for Tom, having to learn quickly how to cook a prime rib while Tom was out on said client visit, and a post-church dinner that went on well past midnight, we spent pretty much all of today in Christmas Coma.
I’ve been in my jammies all day, watching The West Wing with my husband and enjoying the peace and quiet.
Merry Christmas, everyone.

trying to settle on a good clam/mussels pasta recipe for Christmas Eve. This one looks promising.

I think technically, i'm a GenX-er, but I straddle the line with the Y-ers, and this does sum up pretty accurately how I approach my career.

Many of my personal pet peeves are on this list, and a couple that I screw up regularly myself.

I particularly like the shots at the bottom showing Marlon Brando getting into character. By the way, the Coppola Restoration of The Godfather on Blu-Ray really does look fantastic.

Edamame Tree!
This is not my bento (I just don’t spend this much time on presentation) but this Christmas edamame tree pretty much made my morning.
My bento today also has edamame, but not nearly so artfully arranged- Edamame, chicken gyoza, carrot sticks, hummus, and a little bit of cheddar cheese to fill in the gap around the hummus container.
Mmmm. I’m off today, so I plan to eat my bento whilst out-and-about.

Museum Tartan Girl
We surreptitiously snapped this photo at the Seattle Art Museum in August, simply because it amused us that this is exactly the jumper worn by young girls at my alma mater. Look, kids! Your polyester plaid uniform is art now!

My favorite: "Client begins first meeting by making a big show of telling you that you are the expert. You are in charge, he says: he will defer to you in all things, because you understand the web and he does not. (Trust your uncle Jeffrey: this man will micromanage every hair on the project’s head.)"
