In other news, I just sent free screening passes to my newsletter peeps. If you had no idea I had a newsletter, don’t feel bad — I haven’t had it long. Just the 13 years I’ve been blogging. No big deal.

I’m kidding. It’s been up since January. I’ve been using the list to give away free stuff. I’ll also use it to send excerpts from my book, as well as asking the audience to be guinea pigs for fun future things. Therefore, if you are one of those people who likes to freely give your opinion, please sign-up!

If you could care less about any of that, feel free to peruse these links as you count down the minutes until it’s the freakin’ weekend. Enjoy!
