I don’t even know what to write about today. I’m dizzy. But it’s a good dizzy. I have three freelance writing jobs that I’m juggling, plus the rewrite of my own screenplay. Besides, I read an article today that a Stanford U study proved that people who multi-task do a poor job of it! What the… I can’t believe that. You mean, I’ve been living all my life bragging about how adept I am at multi-tasking and basically there’s scientific proof that I suck! Wow, I think my ego is as fragile as a man’s right now. I don’t know what to make of this. I think this is why I get cramped feelings in my stomach when I have different jobs– balls in the air.

But, I’m thinking… I also can’t deny the addictive adrenaline rush I get from having constant brain and life confusion! So, if multi-tasking doesn’t work, what’s a girl to do? Only one job or project at a time? Is that the fate of my life? Oh man, I’m starting to feel a panic attack coming on. I feel like an agoraphobic about to step foot out the front door. Do you know what this means? I panic when I don’t have TONS to do. I can’t manage any other way. I think (an I’m self diagnosing) I may have some form of ADHD.

But come to think of it, is this a symptom of 2009. Don’t we all text and twitter and FB and blog and vlog and type and talk and watch movies and swoop through airports. Ahhhhh. Okay, I’m feeling strength in numbers and not like such an anomaly. Alright, well, let’s see… what have I accomplished? I wanted to blog today and I have but… I don’t know, somehow the substance just doesn’t seem to be there to me. I guess that’s what happens when you force yourself to blog whilst having three deadlines and readying to go out of town for the Women in Film conference in Atlanta for the weekend.

Well, to all my fellow screenwriters and filmmakers, a kiss, a hug and happy creating. You sure did help me regain my mojo– and you had no idea! I know. You’re just that good. You really know how to multi-task and make it look easy.

Salutations,
Camille
