The Never Ending Edit

The Lyfe Movie seems to go on forever, I've been editing on and off for about eight months now. Editing can leave you so disheartened some days. Tonight for example, I only managed to squeeze three hours of editing in. Not that I was busy all day, it's just some days I can't force myself to trudge forward anymore. The sad part is the work has to get done one way or another, and by not working tonight, I'm only tacking on an additional day to the end of the process.

This project has been costly to me, like every project I've done, it's hurt and left it's scars. This one cost a few so called friends. The tough part about this one was we set out to make a movie that was all illegal, and some of my friends are more or less retired from this work. Yet they still want to be up in this new flick, so they put me in the situation of having to say no. This particular friend, I made an exception for and I planned to film them. I even invited this friend to my sold out sneak preview to show him what kind of film I was making. But things hadn't moved fast enough for this "friend." And they decided they were too important to wait anymore.

Guess what asshole, you didn't even deserve to be in the lyfe.

When I hit the road in June of 07, I didn't know the difference between a hopper and an autorack.
