Snapped this picture before a meeting at CN. Don't know why I took it - guess I'd just never noticed the American flag flying over the building.

Sorry I haven't blogged this week. Got real busy. A few quick hits.

-Couldn't go to the big WGA rally on Friday, but it looked cool on television.

-Went to a recording session this week for something I wrote. I uploaded a few pictures to Flickr. Check 'em out.

-I'm always blown away by how fast and efficient professional voice actors and actresses are. There's no wasted time. In, take, second take, done, out.

-Got to meet Tone Loc. That was kinda cool. I don't know how I'm getting to meet all these rappers lately, but I'm digging it.

-Had a pair of pitch meetings. Both went well, but like all pitch meetings, won't know the results for weeks or months or even years later.

-Found out this week I didn't get a particular writing gig I was up for. Normally losing a writing gig isn't fun, but in this case, I can't complain. They ended up hiring a talented famous successful über-writer. The fact that they even CONSIDERED hiring me instead of him is a huge ego boost.

I just hope to get fewer ego boosts, if you know what I mean.

-Christmas is only 40-something days away. For some reason, that depresses me.
