Girding my Loins

Tomorrow I am getting off-shift and will be flying from Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, to Las Vegas, Nevada.  A twelve-hour sojourn.  Joy! 

At least I'm headed home.

Nestled in my briefcase are printouts of all three screenplay critiques.  Since I will be a prisoner in an extremely confined space (read:  crappy airline seat) there is no escape:  I WILL read the critiques and I WILL come up with a screenplay revision strategy.  Yes, I WILL.  No excuses.  And I will IMPLEMENT the strategy.  Goal:  one scene a day until completion.

The title of today's blog - Girding my Loins - may have thrown some of my readers for a loop:  have I turned to porn to augment my readership?

No, dear reader, I have not. 

The title is taken from Scripture.  I belive the loin-girder of record was Sampson, from the Old Testament.  He was about to kick a bunch of hapless Philistine ass.  But first he had to gird his loins.  I'm with you, buddy!
