To Do 4.11.06
1. Call neurologist. Inform him that insomnia for the past seven days does not suggest the new dosage is working, despite lack of headache. Do not allow him to change the subject, particularly if it's about his daughter's wedding (you don't care if it rains Saturday). Mention that you enjoyed Paradise Now but do not want to discuss the Green Line over the phone.
2. Contact reporter. Tell her that you'd like to conduct interview exclusively via email. Make sure to explain that - contrary to popular opinion - the best What's Happening episode is not the Doobie Brothers two part special, but rather the one where Rerun's brother in law bets on the Saints during Monday Night Football because of Dwayne's special formula, which selects the winner based on the design of the teams' helmet. The Raiders win 38-0, Rerun's brother in law is out $500, and as a result, he not only has to cancel their trip to Hawaii, but he has to admit to his wife that he has a gambling problem.
3. Call Editor. Apologize for third delay in two weeks. Assure her that manuscript will be done soon.
a. paperback and hard cover .
b. hard cover all black, like Egger's How We Are hungry.
c. finish new story. look at Denis Johnson's 'Work' for examples of dialogue for scene three.
4. Pick up neighbor's daughter at 3:00 pm from high school and take her to ballet class. Be sure to inform anybody within yelling distance that you are not the creepy 31 year old escorting her to junior prom but rather just doing her cancer stricken mother a favor. Do not appear guilty. Remember, they are all watching you, and want to see weakness.
5. Call Sam "Ace" Rothstein regarding the "Uberdesigner" situation. Get resolution asap.
a. underneath Giants' stadium?
b. Vegas desert?
c. just off Alcatraz?
d. be around family and friends when "it" takes place?
6. Remember, compassion not unlike love.
