dilemma
ok, so mm has a moral decision to make with regards to the yet to be written novel/screenplay....................my (millionaire) friend gail and i savored a quite glass of wine after work this afternoon....while we waited for an elderly, yet notorious customer to finally give up chatting and go home after 4.5 hours.............anyway.......we got to talking about a personal issue with one of her daughters...........and we even brought scw into it, to find out what he knew about it at the high school, and it occurred to me that there are so many issues that i am unclear about how to address......mostly regarding gender/sexual/financial issues...with regards to my workmates and their families...that i find myself editing out of this blog, and therefore this novel/screenplay...the very issues that gail and i discuss most often.................the premise of my book is about 2 women, who have more in common than they ever dreamed they had in common......find friendship/affirmation/support at work.............lots of standing around talking...but that is what most female relationships are based on..............i hate to lose the conversation we had this afternoon, but i am hesitant to record it for posterity given that it was her child and not mine we discussed.................i gues that is why so many screenplays/novels are fiction and not reality...................but we have material so much better than what we could ever make up.................
