mmmm, meatballs

my mother's famous meatballs were the main attraction... we had the fieldhouses over for dinner tonight to enjoy my mum's delicious spaghetti and meatballs. good times. tessa was even wearing a calvin shirt... go knights! so we took a calvin picture together. by the way, i don't think i mentioned this yet on the blog, but as you may see in the pic, i cut my hair... pretty much chopped it all off...ya. it's a bit wierd in this pic... i didn't do anything to it today... so now i am wearing a hat... anyway... we got a pic of us both wearing calvin shirts... fun stuff! and now i am full and sleepy... ready for bed.

but before i go, i need some help. i've been trying to think over the past few days on what my christmas movie is going to be. i know, i am cutting it a bit close, but i've been trying so hard, and i have just got the worst writers block one could ever have. i spent two hours straight walking around my house this morning, tossing a tennis ball around, kicking a hacky sack, trying to get the brain going, but all i got was nothing. phooey.

so, here's where you come in. every movie has this most essential element: conflict. for example, two years ago had the conflict of man vs time, and last year's had a conflict of being treated like a child although the character wasn't. so i have struggled to come up with a story line because i can't come up with the conflict to keep the storyline going. do you kind of get it? here's the deal... i've decided that two characters is a possibility, opening things up to more scenarios (maybe even an appearance from santa?? haha), but i just can't get a story flowing. does anyone have any ideas... help?

anything is much appreciated, because one thing could easily spark another, and to be frank, my mind is shot.

'tis all... ciao ciao
