Dear Marmee, remember the days when strongly-worded suggestions used to meansomething?
apparently those are over since yet again Meg and Beth didn't film
any updates and the only footage from Amy is
well I'll let it speak for itself
my next selection is a fresh masterstroke entitled
'Ode to a Purloined Aluminous Hovel for Blistering Comestibles'
No, no, we're done!
I refuse to be the only one here
this is supposed to be for all of us and I don't want all of these to just be me
talking to me.
I'm Home
My first victim approaches.
Not today Jo I'm really not in the mood Good!
Me neither am I, lets talk about that. I don't want to.
I'm really not giving you a choice.
Well
it can be hard to go back to working after enjoying oneself over the holidays
Its terrible it's like you get this little narrow window of fun
and then BAM back to being an adult
It would be so much better if it were Christmas all the time
That would not be practical at all. How are you supposed to buy presents
you don't spend any time actually earning money?
Details
Um, if it were Christmas all the time you wouldn't enjoy yourself nearly as much
remember Marmee's lesson?
The great Summer of Boredom. Pretty sure you swung too much the other way though
you're always working.
Somebody has to
and I'm not always working. I have my free time perfectly schedule so that my
work efforts are optimized, it's all about priorities.
Although it would be nice if I had the free time to attend more parties. See?
Or if I could spend more time with my friends. Right?
OR if I could afford the time for some dating. I...
OR if I had the freedom to shop and read and relax and rest luxuriously
and I never have to work again
I wish I was born rich
Poor thing don't worry you just have to wait until my first feature makes us millions
Uh the film industry is very unstable there's no guarantee you'll make any money
Oh I will. Three words
Female. Action. Heroes.
like the short I'm working on right now
I don't want to reveal too much but it involves this killer protagonist who
uses a baseball bat to bring down an oppressive society and
rescue her sister.
That sounds wonderful
You have to be realistic too you can't live off of your dreams
I know that but I'm going to try
the money is why I'm still working for Aunt March
at least when you come home from work you can do whatever you like
besides the university classes the mountains of homework being on the
Departmental Council and my tutoring job
I have absolutely no free time.
You think it's easy having to follow ridiculously specific orders
from a bossy old lady who is constantly criticizing you?
Who, inspects your spreadsheet with a ruler to see if the margins meet her approval
and the only moment a peace you get is when you're left to catalog
old movies in a small soundproof room
you settle deep into your ergonomic chair ready for hours of
thrilling adventure movies. But then, just the film reaches it's climax
you hear her cries echoing down the hall and your blood turns cold.
JOSY-PHINE!
You're RIDICULOUS!
You know what would cheer you up?
What?
Helping me with my special video
it's gonna be a one take scripted melodrama
why don't you get Amy to help you?
What did you do?
Payback
Now you two make the video nicely together. Love your little women.
End theme.
