Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

I'm back! I think it went well. Oddly enough, it was kind of fun.

Best moment from the meeting. Someone mentioned that the script was a little dark and he wondered if that was how I skewed as a writer.

My answer was, of course, yes. I blamed Tim (and Joss).

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yay, Kristen!! I know you kicked some serious booty.

What is even happening?

Whooop! Go Kristen.

Ah, Cindy. You knowest not my mother.

True, but I've paid enough attention to your discussions of her, that I'm thinking if Jesse just called her, and said she's worried you're alone too much, and wishes you would meet someone, or Jesse could say you have met someone, but it's all very hush hush.

I would never do such a thing, though. I'm talking about Jesse. You know how she is.

There were four people. One person from the program, one writer from an ABC show, one network exec and one person who I'm not sure what his job function is but I totally want to marry him because he said so many nice things.

They're supposed to make their decision no later than the end of the next week. So we shall see.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Problem is, she'd eat Jesse alive on her way to verifying the story.

Enough about my mother.

Kristen!

So glad you feel good. Take a few deep breaths and savour this.

So when do you hear?

eta: never mind about the timing question. Instead, can you tell me if people really wore as much plaid in the 80s as Miami Vice would imply?

I don't think they did before it aired. But they sure as hell did afterwards.

Woot! Way to go, Kristen!
