Stupid People Shouldn’t Go to Movies
Today I’m going on a date with my husband. Woo hoo! :crazyjumping: The last time we went out was to see Spiderman II, does that say something? We’re going to take shameless advantage of daycare and go at lunchtime to see Revenge of the Sith. :starwars: Can’t wait. Although if people start yacking on their cell phones, I may have to hurt them. 
Do they not KNOW how long it’s been since I’ve seen a movie? Personally, I would be happy to pay an extra $2 to watch a movie in an adults-only venue where stupid people were not allowed. Can’t you just envision it? “We’re sorry, ma’am, but you’ll have to watch your movie in theater 12. Theater 13 is for people who are quiet and actually want to watch the movie instead of screaming at their two-year-old not to cry at an R-rated movie.” 
In other news, I made excellent progress on the new proposal yesterday and have one chapter left to write. I worked on the synopsis last night. It’s always a challenge to make the conflicts real and yet make the characters not seem whiny because of all their **gasp** conflicts! I’m trying for a 1-2 page single-spaced synopsis this time around. (Translation: I can leave a lot of stuff out. I haven’t got a clue how these characters get from point A to point B. I know what the points are, but how they get there is half the fun of writing it). I don’t know how you outlining people do it. My hat goes off to you.
10 pages of progress yesterday and 8 the day before. 
Goal is to get another 10 today.

Michelle, enjoy the movie! JoAnn and I went to see The Perfect Man yesterday, and there was a crying, babbling baby. ARGH. And when we saw Mr. and Mrs. Smith, these people talked through the whole movie. ABOUT the movie, but still.
And WTG on all those pages!
