contracted!

went to a scientologist meeting a few years back with my pal; the 28-year old virgin/gentlemens' club aficionado, and listened to a member talk about his "wins."
said-named-member was promoted and got a raise. he said this in front of the entire congregation as we made ourselves comfortable in the church that doubled as a dentist office during the day.

to paraphrase a stringy-haired blonde with crazy ex-girlfriend eyes, a "win" was:
'when you accomplish a goal...a dream...a task...and you do it well.
well, i had a "win," today (don't worry, tain't one of L.Ron's boys, yet...).
but i recently signed a contract with a production company in Austin, TX to write a feature length script based on a earlier treatment.

i'm pleased. 

today, i had a "win."

but im still not a scientologist.
