If rumors are to be believed (and, really, why wouldn’t you believe a rumor?), i’s are about to be dotted, t’s stroked and, where necessary, certain vowels umlauted, graved, and aigued so that, by Monday, I’ll finally be able to name the super-secret series I’m working on. Well, it’s super-secret only insofar as I’m calling [...]

What a great start to my day. I walked into the production offices this morning to discover THIS tasty-looking treat… Another day of spinning. We’re hoping to send everyone off with one story before we break to write. We’re averaging about two to two and a half days an episode meaning we’ll be finishing up [...]
March 29, 2011: Familiar faces and birthday dinner!
Posted in Uncategorized on March 29, 2011 | 31 Comments »
Today was Alexander’s birthday. We celebrated in grand production style – with a morning director interview, some story spinning, casting discussions, and a rotisserie chicken lunch. To top things off, we received a visit from a surprise guest… Mark was in town on Echoes-related business. ”What is Echoes?”you’re asking. Why, it’s the SF pilot he [...]
March 28, 2011: Toasty warm on your numbened fingers through the plastic of the poopy bag. Heavenly!

So, yesterday’s dog transport went surprisingly smoothly. My awesome dogs-sitter, Christine, was kind enough to offer me a lift to the airport. Once there, I met up with Leah and, dog carriers in hand, we fairly breezed through check-in and security with minimal whining. Bubba and Lulu were pretty good too. With plenty of time [...]
March 27, 2011: Yet Another Travel Day!
Posted in Stargate, Stargate Universe on March 27, 2011 | 74 Comments »
Flying back to Toronto today with Bubba and Lulu today. Carl convinced me I’d be better off flying during the day than taking the red-eye. While the darkened environment and late-night hour of the 10:30 p.m. flight could make for sleepier dogs, it could also result in cranky fellow passengers trying to snooze through Bubba’s [...]
March 26, 2011: Montreal is the place where people go to party, Vancouver is the place where people go to enjoy nature, and Toronto is the place where politicians and sad clowns go to retire.

I’m back in Vancouver today. Back in my home with its open kitchen and fenced-in back yard and home theater and comfy king size bed. But only for as long as it takes me to pack up my things, grab my dogs, and head back. Back to Toronto with its endless driving and frigid temperatures [...]
March 25, 2011: I’m going to have to start living out of my office.

Today marked the end of our my first week in Toronto, and it was a productive one. Amid the madness of the pre-production process, we managed to break two stories (episodes 4 and 5)! I also managed to put on five pounds. The shape of things to come? I’ve got to stop doing less burritos [...]
March 24, 2011: Hey, Phil, have you seen my headless, armless dummy? Oh. Here is is!

Moving to a new place always requires a bit of a readjustment. Many of the aspects of your last home that you grew to know and love may be different, if not altogether non-existent, in your new home. Things like roominess, grass, or a comfortable bed. Sure, you can focus on the negatives – “It’s [...]
March 23, 2011: COME ON!!! Sporadic creativity! St. Roch’s School for Gifted Dogs!

Just when things were starting to pick up here in Toronto, this morning I wake up to THIS – Welcome to Toronto. I mean, COME ON! It’s the end of March! I bet you it’s not snowing in Vancouver! Today was a day of sporadic creative bursts as we attempted to start breaking episode 3 [...]
March 22, 2011: I really need to hit a gym!
Posted in Uncategorized on March 22, 2011 | 45 Comments »
I need to hit a gym. It’s been about two weeks since I last worked out and I’m beginning to feel myself getting fatter. I spend the greater part of my days sitting down spinning stories, updating this blog, and sampling menu selections from a plethora of new restaurants. It’s a situation eerily similar to [...]
