What the bleep! !!!!! !!

I finished filming THE TEACHER"S LOUNGE! YAY!!! Now, I am editing! YAY!!! Although, I am not editing from home as I have done so in prior films! Before I can tell you why, I am compelled to BRIEFLY share with you what has happened in my life recently. As I posted previously, someone crashed into my truck then my laptop crashed. The truck was fixed, which looks great, but the A.C. doesn't work! So, I'm taking it back to be fixed. The laptop still has not been able to be fixed, because other matters came to the SURFACE! No pun intended, but a bump under my arm SURFACED! I had a procedure done to remove the absess! All I really have to say is that I'm glad that is gone, cause it hurt and scared the SH*$ out of me. That physical issue made my current issue, which is that my EDITING COMPUTER has now CRASHED TOO, not such a huge deal! The last couple of days, I shot a documentary for a production company, and in return, they are letting me use there editing system! This is where I am at now, YAY! I must admit that all these things that have occurred as I battle to complete this film has had a toll on me physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Making a full length film is physical, emotional, and spiritual, but in the end, it is just a film. I still stand by my FUGUE FILM mantra, "Finish your film no matter what," however don't forget to say a little prayer for those Angels who help you NO MATTER WHAT! Thank you STEVE, MARIO, TOBI, LETY, CONNIE, PEZ, Dr. HO, and all the cast of THE TEACHER'S LOUNGE! I LOVE my LIFE!!! love, jd
