THIS WEEK ON THE PICKET LINE:
So halfway through my 4-hour shift, I stop to stretch. A little down dog. A little up dog. No big deal. But today, I decide to do one extra stretch and I hear: RIIIIIIIP!

Huge hole. In the front of my shorts. Just enormous. Like if I wrote this in a script and wardrobe showed me the ripped shorts, I’d have no notes.

So there I am. Surrounded by my fellow writers with a picket sign in front of my pants and no idea what to do.

And then… I see the stapler.

Dear Reader, I stapled the front of my shorts shut and walked the line for another two hours.

Because writers deserve to get paid.
