Director Just Gave Me Co-Writer Credit! VOTE! →
Vote for THE PIRATE FORT. We’re very proud of this film. Quite frankly, I will be a little irked if a pair of socks wins.
We were asked to make films not YouTube joints or cheesy commercial spots.
If you want to watch it before you vote: HERE
Thanks For Tolerating
Unbeknownst to her, JMB just talked me down from a ledge for an hour and 45 minutes.
Okay … please bear in mind that I use metaphor very liberally on tumblr. Metaphor, hyperbole, sarcasm and pseudonyms. Also, I frequently discuss delusion, depression, fear of intimacy, nihilism and movies. Maybe I should’ve mentioned this before the content got emotionally pitchy. This is all the...
Side Effects
See … this is what happens. It takes just one little thing to jump-start the boiling rage. One little, stupid, innocent thing. I can feel that it’s about to get out of control. This all could’ve been avoided if I had left my mom’s house when I said I would. That way I wouldn’t have run out of pills. That way I wouldn’t be stewing with unrighteous anger right...
I'm Confused
Dave is either high on drugs or high on drugs.
Not sure which.
Loren Gets Carried Away/Death of Magazine Industry
Thank God Loren posted an update. I was beginning to go crazy. She’s the only good friend who blogs worth a damn.
Or maybe she’s the only good friend who blogs …
Regardless — she’s off to Paris in a few. Then she’s back to NY for a few. Then she’s dropping out of New York and returning to ATL for keeps. I’m so selfish that I’m now operating...

Kicked
Dear HBO,
Your ass is kicked. It’s on lock. Once upon a time you had The Sopranos, SATC, Six Feet Under, Deadwood, Rome and The Wire. But what do you have now? You think True Blood and Entourage will save you?
Showtime and FX have Weeds, Californication, Dexter, The United States of Tara, Nurse Jackie, Damages, Nip/Tuck, Rescue Me and Sons of Anarchy.
Need I state the names of former HBO...
Twi ... Oh Just Click Here Already →
Fav quote: “And yet I eventually found myself squatting between the stacks in the Young Adult section at a Borders, hunched territorially over book two, with all my energy concentrated on it, sweating from the stress of just having attempted to file my taxes, looking pretty much like a smack fiend shooting up or maybe like someone in the process of masturbating…”
Jesus. Amazing.
Cate & Kate & Fate
Just saw Revolutionary Road and Benjamin Button back to back. And I cried.
I cried because of the maddening hopelessness and incisive brutality of the first film. I cried because of the elegaic irrevocability of fate in the second film. They were both beautiful.
I cried a third time. I was waiting for the others to make their way over from Starbucks and I began to envision the future as a tunnel...
Survival
A holiday at my mother’s house is kind of like descending into a pit of snakes.
The key to survival is to move slowly — don’t make any sudden movements or loud noises. Breathe shallow, not deep. Just let the snakes flow around you and bite each other. Imagine that you are made of rock, not feelings.
On Dumb Fks
I cannot believe the sorry excuses for men that some of my friends saddle themselves with. I don’t blame them; everyone has moments of stupidity or blindness, but it is terrifying. Two good friends in particular … amazing girls, women I look up to. So smart, so internally beautiful and generous with themselves … with sht-stain ex boyfriends who aren’t fit to lick the soles...
I am iChatting you … so cool. Tempted to say “so hot” but I’d start sounding like a coworker of mine and I’d rather avoid that. Managed to get out of the office at last. Now I can spend all my time obsessing over this new bloke.
Run. Run Now.
I need to get out of the office in the worst way. Yeah, the holiday party was fun and games, but I’m over it now. It’s time to go home and conquer better things.
My life has been absorbed by this place and I want out … temporarily … I don’t want to be fired.
GOOD GOD, I need a break.
And of course they grabbed for the last two days of ‘08 … and they got...
COLDDD
It is fkin cold out there.
Nico just looked up London online and it’s 53 over therrrre. B!tches.
Owen, You Are So My Man →
Owen proves he will always be on point when it comes to the movies. I am a fan. Not quite the fan I am to Al Pacino, but still.
… That would be hard. I would’ve married Al when I was 13. And I don’t believe in marriage.
And I would’ve been 13.
I'm Writing a Book
I know you don’t believe me, but I am. I’m writing a muthafking book, b!tches.
I’m gonna go there. I’m gonna dig all the black tar out of myself an put it on pages.
You Were Grinding Against the Wall
No. I wasn’t.
Since I don’t remember it and there is no photographic evidence, that means it never happened.
This will be the first time I’ve blacked out in about 2 years.
2 G&Ts, 2 champagnes, 1 red wine, 1 white and something else that I can’t remember.
Clearly I am not drinking responsibly.
The Pirate Fort →
I planted the seed. JMB and Dave made it grow … and then messed around with the compression for about 2 days.
VOTE, you mothers.
I Am Obsessed With Him
Ugh.
Mood Altering Potion
Oh, man, I had some great drugs yesterday. (Legal.) I was giddy and laughing all the way home.
I even tried to depress myself by thinking about the people who made me have to go on drugs in the first place … nope … still giddy and fake-happy. I think this might be a combination of not having eaten all that much yesterday, fantasizing about James Franco and having Nico show me pics of...
Never Knew You Were That Shallow
JMB said, “I don’t know what your type is.”
Nicole interjected, “Gorgeous.”
I replied, “Yeah. Totally gorgeous. Just gorgeous. I have no problem with being the ugly girlfriend.”
The Subway of Discontent
Things are really difficult right now. I haven’t created anything. I’m just letting it run away from me. My art should be my life but instead my job is my life. And the rest is alcohol and the damn L.
I’ve seriously widened the L’s vagina. I mean … I live down there.
The number of times I’ve ridden the L and fallen asleep …
