Just got back from an intense week at film school - learned all there is to know about Super 8 in 7:30 am to 11:30 pm days. Insanity.
I'd also forgotten that it was a youth week I'd signed up for so I was locked on a tiny island camp with a whole crew of teenagers (I was 3 years older than the next oldest person), which was surprisingly enjoyable. I was really able to slip into my fabulously weird self again in a total 100% fashion that I don't usually find these days.
My group made a short super 8 film called "the Future is Now" with hot robot action. The Robot Council reigns supreme. Our vintage stop motion robot looked hot hot hot. It'll be up on the 'net for your enjoyment next week.
It's strange being back in time when I feel like I've just been on an even more remote island for like a month. Those are the long days talking. I'd forgotten what it's like to work 16 hour days, to be away from the internet & the phone, to do without drugs & alcohol, to be hit on by 16 year old girls. (Despite my degenerate status I didn't take advantage of that situation.)
So I'm back. Special thanks to everyone who dropped me a note as requested to read when I got back.
Time for bed.

did you make any new friends? Did their Moms pack good snacks in their lunch boxes?
