Denver Nuggets

At this moment, I am sitting inside the Denver airport.

I've been here before, last time I went out west with Jon and Howie. It's a very western airport. Lots of cowboy accents and cowboy hats.

My flight got delayed this morning due to technical difficulties, personally I wish they had flown anyway and made it more dangerous. Gives me bragging rights when I get back home.

But because of the delay, I missed my connecting flight and have to wait 2 1/2 hours until the next flight out to Burbank. No biggie, I would have had to wait an hour anyway, for the original connecting flight.

So I used this time to begin work on the next short of mine. I got the rough idea from Howie, so thanks go out to him. It takes place in an apartment in LA, where 2 friends from home who grew up together live. One is packing up and moving back east to their hometown. The other is staying.

I'm interested in writing a "break-up" story without an actual break-up. They are not lovers, so they are not ending a relationship. Just ending a period of their lives. Break-ups always seem to be very one-sided, most often because the decision has been made by one mind. I want to really get into the head of how hard it is to actually break up with a person. Nobody likes it, especially not if it's with someone you generally care for in many ways. But the idea of a roomate moving out, being told as a break-up story, intrigued me. How do you tackle that emotion? Nobody "breaks-up" with their friends, but moving away is similar.

Anyway, just want to say again how much I'll miss everyone, especially my wonderful girlfriend Beth. I can't wait to see you out here! We're def going to Vegas baby!

And Howie, don't worry, I already know how to incorporate the farting machine. Seriously.
