The cross country shuffle

Aug 17th, 2009
by David Faroz Precht.

Well folks, the time is nigh.  A week from today we fly to Colorado to begin our eventual move to Pasadena.  It’s an exciting and extremely stressful moment in our lives as we’ve only been married two weeks now and started to get a handle on life as a couple.  Now its time to throw a wrench in there and really disrupt everything.  Ugh.  But them the breaks.

Anyway, I haven’t been able to do much over the last two weeks as we’ve been in “figure things out” and “focus on ourselves/each other” mode.  I have, however, finished the first draft of my first spec script and will begin on the second spec when we arrive in Colorado.  It’s a good feeling, having this written and finished something like this.  And soon I’ll be emailing it out to a friend to see about possible jobs.

There’s not much else I can talk about as I certainly don’t want to get my or anyone else’s hopes up.  I’d rather make announcements when things have been finalized.

In other news, SoulPancake continues to roll on.  Lindsay is now nearly three weeks ahead in her features and I’ve been developing some ideas about marriage for a segment of my own.  I’ll keep you informed as we see what happens.

That’s that.  I’m now off to further pack our studio apartment’s worth of stuff into boxes in preparation for the move.  A maneuver that will no doubt make these knotty, painy feelings in my stomach much, much worse, but the overall feeling of accomplishing something and moving on to a new stage of life drowns those feelings out.  So, I’m back to balancing.  And isn’t that what life’s all about?  …what did I just type?  I think I’ve lost it.

Bye!

    Dave, I love how parallel our lives are this summer. Marriage to awesome partner, check! Crazy few weeks of merging, purging, packing lives, check! Road trip honeymoon out west, check! Settling down in CA to start our new lives as married folks, check! That last check may be a little premature….bit more settling down to be done, at least on this end.

    My husband Dan and I are north in the Silicon Valley/Bay area. Come visit any time and good luck with the move.
