The world really is ending!

Posted in: Capricornucopia.

I’m not sure I want to live in a world without Twinkies.  If they sold the damn things here in Montreal, I assure you they would not be filing Chapter 11.

Speaking of world endings, my Capricornucopia script is moving apace.  I’d say more, but we try to keep things under wraps until the actual day.  The themes are a mildly open secret but the scripts themselves are kept under more security than the Colonel’s secret recipe of 11 herbs and spices (I think one of them is crack).   So, there’s no way you’ll ever find out what the scripts are about.  There’s nothing…nothing you can do.  Muhahaha.

Unless you ask…then maybe.

Actually, the main reason no one usually knows much about the scripts themselves ahead of time is that it seems to have become a Capricornucopia tradition to procrastinate with superhuman effort until the last minute (With the exception of Chris, who is an inspiration to us all).

It sounds bad, but if I go by previous years and the fun we’ve had, it usually works.

My own personal tradition is to agonize over the thing, fight it, avoid it, hate it and worry about it and think it’s the most horrible boring thing ever put to paper…

And then it’s fine, people laugh and have fun.

So…seems like I’m right on track for 2012!

In other news….2 more days til I start my writer’s workshop!  I’m excited!
