At this point, yes, I am a little bit afraid of jinxes, so I'm not going to come right out and say I got some promising leads on some proper writing work today, but I might have done so. Instead of talking about that and saying too much, other people deserve the spotlight today. I'm so lucky to be surrounded by these wonderfully talented people who pursue a higher calling than "just some job." Some of them, I've known since childhood. Some of them, I've only known a short while, or only know casually, or may not have met in person. Thanks to them, I know better than to settle for mediocrity.

To reward you for suffering through that, you get the only Star Wars prequel video I'll ever post, and only because it's... well... it's something:

If only those movies could have been just a series of musical montages...
Yeah, no kidding. Omitting the awful dialogue (and therefore the plot) would go a long way toward making them tolerable.
I love the continued shout-outs on your blog (because it's all about me).
You rock, and roll, and rule all, Heather. You know to call me when you forget that, right?
*knucks*
@Elwood, all that stuff you said?
Back atcha!!!
Dude!! That video made more sense than Episodes 2 and 3 did!
You're awesome! I can't say it better than Elwood.
It'll make even more sense once you've seen Phantom of the Paradise!
Oh I love this! Love the shout-outs to creatives ... it's all about loving what you do, whether it's a career or a hobby - or both!
