Transition.

I went through the transition this weekend, and it was smooth as a baby's buns. Or butter. Or buttered baby buns. In any case, it's a positive step. I'm effectively being paid to sleep, which is pretty damn good. And I also write dialogue well at night, It's a thing. I don't get it. It's the way I am.

So, I worked my first shift last night, and I didn't anticipate sleeping, but the recliner there is epic, and I slept most of the night. One of the guys woke me up at 6 because he'd had a blowout, and I got to mop diarrhea off the floor, but at least it was linoleum. And that's literally the worst thought I had about it, so I think this may be a good fit. And then I made breakfast in the morning. It was fun, to be honest. A good temporary fit, but still temporary.

Also, I've begun my workout in good order. I've already seen results, so it seems like a good idea. My plan is to encourage my left upper body to become slow-twitch muscle, as my shield is a beast and needs to be hefted for long periods at a time. Then I'll encourage my right side to become fast-twitch muscle, as a sword or ax should be fast more than anything else, and if I still have some semblance of accuracy, I can probably do some damage. Also, I've got this sweet high-altitude training mask, so I'll get to work on the stair-elliptical thing with it. Hopefully by the end of the month, I'm a tank. I did well at Dragon's, but I got tired, and the fighting wasn't a long time. I plan to bust ass at Battlemoor. I've already seen results. My left shoulder is getting big, and my forearms are getting toned, which is a good sign. Now I just need to stop drinking until the end of the month, and keep up the cardio.

Exercising sucks buttholes. Except that I saw one of my folks' friends who was divorced a while back, and she looked FINE. Except that she's like, thirty years older than me. But still, she looked good enough for porn. Like, good porn.

Also, I'm working on my scripts. I realized that I did the same thing about this shitty review as I always do. I get mad, I get drunk, and I read it again a couple days later, then pick up exactly what they wanted me to get. My character arcs ARE confusing. So I'm planning some minor overhaul stuff. I guess I'm NOT done with The Hun. It'll be alright though. I know exactly which scenes need to be altered, but I'm prioritizing my other script. Which is going well. I made sure to work out the character arcs, just to be safe. And the dialogue is solid. I mean, this is rough draft shit, and each character already has their own voice. But who knows if the final product will be any good. One can hope! And I'm working out another spec script concept, getting it primped and ready to write. And I have another that I'm mucking around with right now. It's nowhere near being written, but it's interesting... Not that interesting is good at all. It'll either be super popular or totally panned.

I'm also working out another indie script option. It should end up a low-budget character-oriented webseries. And I think it has all kinds of potential, but I have yet to really dig into the meat of it. So, who knows? It'll likely end up on the heap of abandoned script ideas, but at least I HAVE a heap of abandoned ideas. I assume there are people who just roll headlong with each idea they get. W/E
