I seem to have fallen into this once a week or so posting mostly about my weekends.
What is sad is that my weekends are pretty much the only time that I have a life. I really have been asking myself the question why am I putting myself through this and I really don't have an answer for you. I hope to find one soon.
Anyway it was a good weekend because I hung out with my friend Shane. He lives in Boston but has a boyfriend here in CT.
I've known Shane since college and he's a fun guy to hang out with... but... he likes to embellish the truth a little bit. He's also a major drama queen.
Anyway, Friday night we ended up at a gay bar here in Connecticut. Shanes ex was there which drove Shane crazy and his boyfriend crazier because Shane really isn't over this crazy guy yet.
To blow off steam the boyfriend took me inside where I ran into this guy Ted that I had a drunken make out session with a few years ago. This is a guy who told me that he didn't want a boyfriend and then a week later had a boyfriend. He has since apologized for it and bought me shots the rest of the night.
While getting the shots I noticed this guy standing by himself. I mention it to my friend Ted and he said I should go talk to him. I was in a negative mood and said no and really got a push.
I went over and said hi and it turns out that he had been eyeing me as well and didn't know how to say hi. We got talking and his friend seemed to be getting annoyed. He asked for my number.
2 minutes later I had a text from him saying, "Hey it's Kevin. You're really cute"
It made my night.
Saturday we exchanged texts and he called me on Sunday when he was driving home to New Jersey. Ugh... he left out that he was from NJ. BUT... he is moving to CT...
Who knows how this will turn out. He likes me which is good. He is a die hard Giants fan which is better.
We'll see how it goes.

What a fucking weekend. Started off eh… went to bad and ended great.
First… I had plans to party and celebrate in NYC on Saturday night. I took it easy on Friday because of a cash flow problem.
See… In July my paychecks became tiny. I will still getting by paying rent and utilities but barely. I had no idea why. I looked at paystubs and remembered that my car insurance payments come out of my paycheck because my provider gave a discount.
Well the usually small number had ballooned up to a number that really ticked me off. I gathered all my paperwork and called the company. I was hung up on 3 times “accidently” by the automated system. That ticked me off.
Apparently, the company finally got my change of address form but did not process it until 7 months later. When they did process it they decided to click a box that said my drivers license was invalid.
After talking with the agent they found out that my rate was wrong and my license was valid and said they would refund the money they had over charged me since July… $2700. Yes. Pissed.
Saturday I had lunch at one of my favorite places with some friends after a long meeting for work (on a day off) I finished my chicken caesar wrap and something didn’t feel right. I laid down for a few minutes which turned into a few hours. I woke up feeling like ass. Next thing I know the sandwich came back up and my night became a nightmare.
I was up all night with that nauseous feeling.
I barely slept and then spent 5 hours tailgating before the Giants game. I really wanted to celebrate the day but just felt awful.
The good news is that I am feeling better and had a great time at the game.

I want to F your sister
I have been reading a lot of movie scripts lately. In my travels to various screenwriting sites I found the “Black List”
What is the black list? “Universal film executive Franklin Leonard's THE BLACK LIST 2008 "was compiled from the suggestions of over 250 film executives, each of whom contributed the names of up to ten of their favorite scripts that were written in, or are somehow uniquely associated with, 2008 and will not be released in theaters during this calendar year. This year, scripts had to receive at least four mentions to be included on THE BLACK LIST.”
It’s pretty interesting to see what kind of scripts are selling in Hollywood. What’s crazy is the fact that some scripts are bought and never made.
One script that was bought by MTV Films is “I Want to ____ your sister” I read it recently and loved it.
You can read the script HERE.
I think I really liked the script because I am a big brother. I am the kind of brother that (in the past) has said things to guys and stood up for my sisters.
While reading it I saw Ryan Reynolds in the part of the big brother.
Give it a read… and remember… the chick who wrote it was paid $300,000 back in 2007.
