Fourth pass

Even Sir looks exhausted.

                        *     *     *

Another pass through the script.

I'm at 66 pages.  I was able to cut six pages this time around.

It didn't help that I added another scene.

At least each pass takes less time.

My goal is to have it the last 48 pages of the rough draft to my co-writer before I leave for Ohio on Wednesday afternoon.

Then it's his problem.

Of course, I can't wait until he's done.

Last night, after Sandra and I had dinner and saw the Channel 101 viewing, we drove into Santa Monica to catch a 10:30 PM showing of The Wedding Crashers.

How many times did I look over at Sandra, only to catch her with a gigantic grin on her face?  Probably matched only by my own.

Will Ferrel's uncredited role was also a hoot.

Very funny movie.

So it's off for a workout, breakfast, and another read of the script, this time as Starbucks.

It's not like I have a choice.  Tick-tock!

My, what a sweet kitty.  We have 8 cats.  And a dog.  I like the way you talk about your process.  Mine is similar, I think.  I create volumnous manuscripts and then cut, cut, cut.  Theresa
