Who is this “Oscar” guy?

Man alive, it is raining like mad here in Los Angeles today.

Apparently the rumors are true. For a few, good, solid hours per year, water will fall from the sky in this town. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for a freak cold snap.

Not because I’m all wistful and miss the snow. I just really want to see everyone in this city completely freak out.

Also, I have 10,000 snowscrapers and assorted shovels stashed in my closet. Profiteering!

Before I forget: Someone wrote me an email to tell me that they read all of FadeIn, but I forgot to write back and their email is gone now. That person is now eligible for the free congratulatory barbecue.

Also, a masked stranger left me a message with a link to a job to which I applied. I haven’t heard anything yet, but just to sweeten the pot: Anyone who secures me employment will also be eligible for grilled chicken.

And several hours of sweaty makin’ out.

It has recently come to my attention that my roommate and this shmo believe I am endowed with an enormous ego.

I suspect they’ve been talking.

All I can say in response to their accusations is that when you’re a flat broke, unemployed Los Angeles wannabe with an unproduced screenplay....whew! Can you blame me?

Lastly, on a deeply personal note: Know what I miss? Spontaneous combustion.
