So there I am looking at an absolute ton of files uploading for next month's magazine and I think to myself, while that's busy choking up all my bandwidth, I'll type up the last few handwritten pages of my script, Fox On The Run, for (secret project with a deadline so close that I can smell it). Knock on the door. Postman with package from amazon. Waking the Dead season three. That's fair.

Back to the script.

Phone rings.

Ellie. She has had her phone confiscated at school and can I go and pick it up at the end of the day because those are the rules.

Call school. See what the score is. Yes - I have to sign for it. Crap. That drives a stake in the afternoon. Organise to do it at the end of the school day.

Back to the script.

Clattering in garden. Rabbit escape! Mexican stand-off between rabbit A and rabbit B. That could have been nasty. Note to self: put a couple of nails in the panel in the gate that came loose in the storm last week.

Back to the script.

Lost the thread of it now. Maybe I'll come back to it later today...

Sigh.

And yeah, the Rocky poster is slightly relevant - but you'd have to see the script first I guess. Good film though - not seen it for years. Maybe I'll dig it out.
