Weird title? You betcha! I haven’t had a steady paycheck since July 4th. It’s a weird feeling. I’ve wanted to get into this position for a while but didn’t really expect it to be now. I was hoping it would hold off until I was making more on my own. Right now I’m sorta at the mercy of emails or phone calls. My film isn’t done, I can’t pay to finish it myself, and I’m waiting on distribution phone calls with a prayer that they see how well it could sell (at least that’s what I think), and they’re willing to distribute it on DVD and pay the little amount I need to get it finished.
Besides social activity and my film, life is relatively uneventful. Having no job has given me the opportunity to work on my film a lot more (which I think was God’s intention in bringing me home anyways), and also more time to hang out with new people that I wanted to bring into my life. I’ve met more new friends in the last month and a half than ever before. New friendships I can’t wait to grow! What a Blessing that is…
Monday had me getting up really late after Sunday’s late night so I didn’t get much done. I just sorta worked a thing or two out with Standing Firm, looked over my edit notes, etc. Once 6 came around I got on my way to Eric’s for my typical monday hang out time. Lots of people there as usual, and the new friends I was talking about. Deep theological discussions, laughing, some soccer and a bonfire, what could be better? O, and some apple crisp…MMM. What an awesome day of friends and fun.
Today (Tuesday) had me getting up at like 11:15 so I could go to Jason’s house by 11:45. I cleaned up a bit, hopped into some clothes, and headed out. We were going to lunch, er…breakfast…er…whatever. We went for some chinese. Normally that stuff makes my organs do kung fu on each other, today was no different. I only had one glorious plate of chicken and rice, after that the war below started so I quit. Jason came over for a bit afterwards and he watched Standing Firm for the first time all the way through. He had seen pieces of it and knew a lot of the plot twists and such so the response was much different than last friday. Watching the film through with others has been very healthy in helping me understand what needs fixing or not. What people get and when, what they laugh at, etc.
Not much else to report for the day really. Vintage was a good time, learned some stuff I won’t repeat. God is good, not much else to it than that.
I love the beginning of my week, it always starts with some awesome fellowship and fun. Thank you Lord for great friends. I’m looking forward to seeing my dad when he comes home from Georgia this weekend too. He won’t be home for long, which really sucks, but I’m glad he’ll be home for at least a few days. I miss having him around 
I found out about a new site for the next sherwood movie, and did a little blog post. I’ve dug up every piece of public info on Sherwood I can over the past few years, so of course I knew exactly where to go for the little “clue” they talk about on the site, LOL. Read Here. I’ll be watching this entire process like a hawk, just like I did with Fireproof.
