Dinner and Balloon Animals

I decided to hold off for a couple of days since there wasn't much to talk about the day after my free download promo. The total number of downloads for A Very Slagel Christmas was 43. I'll have to ask Jackie how many copies of The Nerdfly were downloaded that day.

In other news, I'm on to Chapter 4 in my next book and I wrote a five-page scene for my college friend's movie. No word back on that yet. I also got an e-mail from someone at Robert Morris University saying that my name was in the credits for a documentary that one of my professors released this week. If it's the documentary I'm thinking of, then I helped to film some of the interviews back when I was a sophomore. It's an Italian piece called La mia Strada.

My parents and I went to dinner at a restaurant called Atria's last night. It's supposed to be sort of a fancy place, but for whatever reason, there was a woman wheeling around a cart full of balloons in our section. She kept stopping to make balloon animals for customers and give them business cards. I would have taken a picture of her on my phone, except it was way too dark in the restaurant for that to work.

That's all the news I have for now. It should be Open Mic Night at Duke's tonight, so I'll be going out in an hour. In the meantime, I've always got more writing to do.
