I think I may have a heart attack just reading all of this writerly productivity. Check it out:
For years I was on just about a 26-hour day. I wasn’t going anywhere…all I did was write. I might start working at ten o’clock in the morning and go to bed about two the next morning, then wake up at ten o’clock and start the cycle over again at noon. Every day it was about two hours...

Was going to go to this tonight, but liver and the fact that next week is probably going to be one long party means its good form to stay in tonight. And make a steak.

And we talked about WONDER WOMAN.

My latest story on Splash Page. Astro Boy is a 21st century version of Pinocchio about a scientist, voiced by Nicolas Cage, creating a robot boy (Freddie Highmore) to replace his dead son. The anime/manga is a classic of modern animation and the movie will probably end up on a level similar to WALL-E.
Its an Elvis Costello kind of day.

Latest MTV story. I’ve been blanking on posting my recent stories, but hopefully that’ll change.

I was doubtful about Seth Rogen, but Stephen Chow made me optimistic. So we’ll see.
This would be sad. I was excited to see Rogen in such a different role.
We’re still waiting on official statement, probably later today, but I’m 60 % sure that its fine. I agree, though, considering how different Pineapple Express turned out for people I was looking...

Oscar Nominations announced. →
Heath Ledger nominated for Best Supporting Actor; Dark Knight shut out from all other categories (incorrect on the Academy’s part). Overrated movies Doubt and Benjamin Button lead all other categories.

Music Recommendations
Marsha: Citizen Cope.
Me: Got it.
Nick I: Slayer
Me: You're kidding, right?
Other Brian: i'll second citizen cope, and add the gaslight anthem
Meg: Kings of Leons new one is incredible.
Me: Totally, really surprised.
Kiel: CORY BRANAN

Bekah: MFing FLEET FOXES. I mean, Joe Pug.
Zena: Yes! Cory Branan. He's playing SxSW this year. Gaslight Anthem = Eddie & The Cruisers soundtrack. I highly recommend the last Duke Spirit record, Black Mountain and Dungen. And Slayer/Misfits, as always.

Say you took a cab ride, and the driver drove like a maniac, so much so that you worried he might be drunk. In fact, he got pulled over, but the cops let him go on his way. And he got obviously lost, several times, but fiercely denied there was any problem. He kept up an incessant patter of retarded drivel throughout. The meter kept running. In the end, you didn’t so much...

Undefeated on the road? That’s a first for my alma mater, usually its the other way around. Even though since I saw them play at Fordham a couple of weeks ago, they haven’t won a game since. On Wednesday they play nationally ranked Xavier at...
dream
a goddamn terrifying one. It involved me, Tom Peyer and we were both stabbed in the parking garage of Ralph Wilson Stadium. Something tells me we were acting out some kind of plot that was a merging of BURN NOTICE and PSYCH. This bothered me so much I can’t go back to sleep now, and I very much want to go back to sleep.
