On the SECRET PROJECT! SHHHH!

So I was originally going to write something about this Presidential Inauguration candy bar that found its way into my posession, but I've been writing about Mr. Obama quite a lot recently and I felt like covering a different topic.

Plus I don't really have much to say about it. I mean I think it's pretty funny that they made special candy bars just for the inauguration, but what else can I say? There it is, a presidential candy bar. It wasn't a very good candy bar either.

I also thought I could write another weekend retrospective and talk about how on Friday I did a karate kick in the street and ripped one of my only two pairs of pants, but that was pretty much the only noteworthy thing that I did.

And I already wrote about my shoes a few weeks ago, so that's ruled out as a topic.

So I guess what I'm going to write a little bit about is my SECRET PROJECT! I know I have been keeping you on pins and needles regarding what the project actually is, and that it's just been eating at you and eating at you and you haven't been able to get any sleep, but I believe it has finally progressed enough that I can give a few tantalizing details about it. Oh my god, here goes. Drumroll please.

My friend Jake and I are writing a screenplay. I don't know how long it is going to take, or how seriously we are going to take it, or what we are going to do with it once we finish, but we have been meeting about it once a week for the past couple months and I think that we are actually going to create something cool. I guess the McKnight Foundation gives out some fellowships to screenwriters each year, so our tentative goal is to try and win that. But who knows, maybe we'll try and sell it or something. It's also quite possible that it will end up being just for our own personal enjoyment. Hopefully not, I want to make some bucks!

I'll probably write more about the process as the project goes along. Up until now we had just been working on the story and the characters, but now we are at the point where we will actually start writing it. I've never written any scripts or anything before, so I don't really know what I'm doing. Jake on the other hand has taken many screenwriting classes and written many scripts, so he does know what he's doing. He's also probably the funniest person I know, with a sense of humor very similar to my own, so I think that we will make a very good team on this.

So yeah, look forward to more on this topic, and look forward to our movie IN THEATERS NEAR YOU!
