Working on scripts for the MM Micro-series.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...And this would make an infinitely cooler vlog than a blog. Lame I know. Trying to figure out when to attempt filming, what free video-editing software I can use (just to get rid of my 'um's and extended pauses), and where to film from, because while my bathroom has awesome acoustics, its not exactly interesting. ...Or could potentially be highly unappealing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know. Do you like seeing inside people's bathrooms? What about their purses?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also! Mick finally got around to making a blog and a tumblr!
