Tweet Day!
Sunday, December 6, 2009 at 12:24AM 
Tomorrow (well, technically today: Sunday, December 6), day 5 (of 15) on the ambitious "Dark Rising" TV series shoot ("Dark Rising: The Savage Tales of Summer Vale"), is a long (12 6/8 script pages!) and action-packed one (complex make-ups, drama and special guests), so I'll be attempting to alleviate the exhaustion and stress with a marathon tweet session from first thing in the morning right through to wrap (possibly beyond), so, if you're really, really, really, really bored, tune in for the fun (and pictures!).

In case you missed it, here's a historical record of my tweets from that day (note: my tweet-times appear to be a little off, I think I have something set wrong on Twitter):
- Today's tweet marathon starts with a groan and a cough ... coffee ...
- Woke up an hour too late; Jimmy (sound guy) is still snoring and Christina (make-up) is hogging the bathroom. =(
- @thebigshibam Great show last night, Matti! Terrific concept and you knocked it outta the park!
- "Love Fool" plays for another night at Veritasse in North Bay tonight (I think). Saw it last night. Great show, so check it out!
- Now Jimmy's hogging the shower. May as well format some drives for today's shoot.
- ... oh, and clean up my workspace. Hurm.http://twitpic.com/se5ey
