The Sum of My Exhaustion

Wow. Just... wow. It's been a ridiculously hectic 3 weeks. As of today, we've got 3 more weeks of filming, and one more of post work (closing up the office and shutting down all the accounts, etc.) and that'll be that. And it made me a little sad. This past week was the first week of filming, when everybody was kind of thrown into the fire, and we're all now used to how the people around us operate on a daily basis. I now know who is a scatter-brian, who has a martyr complex and who is just flat out lazy. But the 3 of us production office ladies (or "Crazy Office Bitches" as we've been dubbed) all get along really well. We work well together, and we stick up for one another even though we'd never met before mid-May. I totally dig that. I know I'll be sad when it's over, because most of the people on this film are from out of state, and the likelihood that I'll ever see them again is pretty small. Then I got to thinking that if I were to get one of my screenplays made, I could hire the people I like and work with them again. Strange logic, I know, but it's been motivating never the less. In honor of that motivation, a snippet of a song by one of my all time favorite bands (that would be Carbon Leaf). It's called 'Changeless':

Let fondness be our souvenir
To keep it warm, we'll keep it near
Otherwise with no heart to recall...
A memory's just a memory after all
I will not leave this pulse alone
Though it may take the long way home
I will not wait until the end
For my applause for you my friend

What are the odds, what are the odds?
This ends and we don't meet again
What are the odds, what are the odds?
This ends and we won't meet again
What are the odds, What are the odds?
That I have missed your smile
