OK, I'm unemployed again and have decided not to pursue any of the romantic possibilities I stumbled upon last weekend so that means more time for blogging. Unfortunately, the April SoulMix is going to be delayed because Lala didn't have two of the first four songs I wanted to use (Pearl Jam's "The Fixer" and Marina and the Diamonds "Are You Satisfied?" so I decided to start over. Hopefully I'll find some new music in the near future to add to the mix.

And no, this isn't an April Fool's joke. I'm not a fan of April Fool's Day. The one good thing about the day is that it makes people read the news with the same eye for bullshit that they should probably use every day. Today they KNOW that one or more stories in their favorite paper or on their best blogs is bullshit and they read with a cautious eye. It's how you should read every story, especially in the laughably jaded modern media.

As for the aforementioned possible paramours, one issue with meeting people while you're drunk is that you might just forget who they are until you get a text from them. I went all creepy uncle on the texters and did a reverse phone look-up and then checked them out on facebook/myspace so I could see if I remember what they look like. The names didn't make things clearer and the pictures weren't much help either. That combined with the fact that I had to stalk them to just realize they existed made me vote against calling them back. I'll just pat myself on the back for getting three girls to call me back the next day and move on.

As for writing, I've been ridiculously lazy and STILL need to finish the superhero pilot I'm working on. After that, I'll either work on episode two or look for something different. "Best Apocalypse Ever" has run its course, although I haven't really thought about it much. I considered rewriting the short I made my senior year at Syracuse; a kid finds out that he's actually been in the witness protection program for his entire life and his girlfriend (to whom he wants to propose) is the daughter of the guy that his dad ratted on and sent to jail. I was thinking about maybe trying to shoot it but I may just try to make it an episode of the superhero series.

Anyway, this is a month to get off my ass and do something while I have the free time so we'll see how it goes. And in honor of getting back to work, click "Continue reading" for the return of the Unprocrastinator!
