So, as most of you may know, I recently had my script take 3rd place at the Eerie Horror Film Festival. My prize was 2 all access passes. So, since writing and making movies is what I want to do, it's clear that I need to go because of all the industry people that will be there. Of course, this can't be such an easy decision. It happens to fall on the same weekend as the Texas/Oklahoma football game. Now, while I don't give a crap about either of these teams, since they play in Dallas it is the single biggest weekend I have all year for money. So, if I go to the festival, not only will it cost me money for airfare (maybe not, working on that), accomodations, car rental, food and alcohol, but it will also cost me around $800 for missing Friday and Saturday nite. Plus, they are not likely to let the Bargod take a vactation the busiest weekend of the year, so I will most likely be quitting the job to go. I had told my wife and work that I would work because I need the cash. However my wife says screw it. Why keep the job you hate and miss an opportunity to meet somebody that can get your movie made.
It's just hard to quit a job you've had for 11 years, especially the one that you get the family's insurance through. AAAAARRRRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!! -------------------- |
