Trying out TeuxDeux, which is an online to do list that you can fill out and access anywhere. Was adding stuff to the “Some Day” list, and it looks like I want to stay up all night with the woman I love buying kayaks, because the print kind of ran together. I assure you, its two different things. I wouldn’t even know where to buy a kayak at 2 in the morning…

sleater-kinney - “modern girl”
Love, love, LOVE, a million times LOVE. Modern Girl is one of my favorite songs off of The Woods, and I love this version and this video. If Corinne Tucker wasn’t a lesbian, all she would have to do is say the word. On the flip side, though, seeing this video does make me sad, because I honestly feel like Sleater-Kinney was getting better with every album, and The Woods was their best yet. Knowing there may never be another one… It’s a little sad.

I was recently talking to my editor about how a lot of getting older is realizing that the things you believed when you were younger are true. When you’re 25, the greatest thing in the world is to be published in McSweeney’s. When you’re 30 you want to get paid for your writing—you want to be in the New York Times! Then, when you’re getting closer to 40 like I am, you realize, wait! The greatest thing in the world is to be published in McSweeney’s! That’s the real, funny joy about getting older. Is to realize that those things you believed when you were 20, honest and hopeful and good, a lot of them turn out to be true.

When I was in high school, I thought “What could be cooler than making films with your friends, and seeing them in the theater?”, so I decided to go to film school. In film school, I somehow made the decision that I wanted to get paid for my work. Now, almost five years after graduating college, I think I do just want to go and make films with my friends… I guess its good that I’m not 40 and figuring that out, but this post is absolutely true. I think a lot of creative people don’t want (or need) the brass ring, they just want to do what they do, and, hopefully, be recognized (in a positive way) for it. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’d love to be at Spielberg’s level, where I can pretty much do whatever I want and have a billion dollars in my bank account, but, honestly, I’d just settle for making movies with my friends and (hopefully) seeing them up on the big screen.

There’s this place in Nashville called Love Hill, which is Nashville’s version of the proverbial “Make-Out Point” that Hollywood loves so much. It’s pretty close to my apartment (right off of Vanderbilt campus) and overlooks the entire city. At night, it’s the most beautiful place in Nashville to be.
Anyway, when I went out at 2 AM this morning to take pictures around Nashville with my trusty Canon XSi, this was the first spot I went to. I took several sets of long exposure shots (30”, 60”, 90”, 120”), all at ISO100, f/22, and all with the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens. (Unfortunately, lots of trees were in the way… I guess they add a nice touch though? Haven’t decided yet… =/)
Long story short, I’ve been combining and editing them the past few hours, and here’s the result. (Yes, I’m slow, because I’m still a n00b, so this probably isn’t that great either… lol, all you professionals, please don’t kill me.)

why i love being a writer
I actually hate writing, but I want to bring my ideas to the screen, and since I can’t afford to hire someone to write stuff for me, I do it myself. Anyways, I was writing a scene for a script I’m working on, and its the final scene between the main character, Tuck, and the girl he’s totally in love with, Morgan, in which she tells him that she’s marrying a guy she met while studying abroad in Paris, and, while she loves Tuck, she will never have a future with him because he refuses to grow up. I was choked up while I was writing it. I love getting involved with my characters and living in their world, and empathizing with them. I just hope that comes out on the page…

The Black Keys played one time in the four years I lived in Nashville. I missed it. I have regretted it ever since.
