Existin’ - nuthin’ but existin’
Thank you Mr. Hendrix for that apt quote…
The Director put out an APB to everyone in his contact list, hoping that somebody, somewhere, knows a high level Fed-Ex manager, director, or someone that can shake a stick at the proper people to find our lost film. I managed to persuade that guys at shipping / receiving (at the ol’ vocational hemorrhoid) to take a lash at it - fingers are crossed, hopes are high, but as Mr. Rollins once said: ‘Hope is the last act of someone defeated’.
Meh.
So its a step back. If need be, we’ll re-shoot it in the spring, I’ll make the blood even more thick and goopy, and bring the damn video camera so this time, I’ll preserve it for posterity. And bring a hip flask.
On a more postitive note; the Producers just dropped word that they’re finishing “Like a Springsteen Song“, and a premiere party is imminent. Since most of the cast and crew also worked on ‘Sovereignty’, it’ll help lift some spirits seeing hard work up on the screen, and surrounded with good people and talent, should help lift the team out of this emotional topor.
Also, the closest thing to being stoned while looking at a computer screen.
And coolness on the horizon: getting ready for the Smooth One’s wedding and still debating an acceptable gift; plus BSG’s season 3 starts tomorrow night, so I’m gearing up for high geek mode…
