Reporters agree. There is absolutely nothing to write about today.
No politicians did anything stupid today.
No entertainers did anything gutsy to create some sort of media hype.
No one said anything profound, meaningful, ridiculous, or very witty, for that matter.
No one of significance announced a marriage, a merger, a pregnancy, a birth, a haircut, a divorce, a new employee, a new job, a new product, or a lunch appointment.
Nothing particularly gruesome happened today. No one killed anyone that anyone else had ever heard of. No one bombed anyone else’s home. No one even yelled at someone else more than was expected. No gangs fought. But none decided on a truce, either.
No cats are lost. No long-lost dogs came home to a grateful and loving family.
No one published anything, sold anything exciting, ran a sale on anything, made a lot of money, lost a lot of money, or saw any good movies lately.
The weather wasn’t especially unexpected. In fact, it was just like yesterday—and most likely the same as it will be tomorrow. But who really can tell anyway?
Said one reporter, “Normally, in situations such as this, we make stuff up. But we just didn’t feel like being that creative today. So we all agreed to take the day off.”
Regularly scheduled crises will resume tomorrow.
Kristin Dreyer Kramer has been writing in some form or another (usually when she was supposed to be doing something else) since the ripe old age of ten—when she, her cousin, and their two Cabbage Patch Dolls formed the Poo Authors’ Club. After a short career in advertising, Kristin got sick of always saying nice things about stuff that didn’t deserve it—so now she spends her days criticizing things, and she’s much happier for it.
Since creating NightsAndWeekends.com in February of 2002, Kristin has spent her life surrounded by piles and piles of books and movies—so many that her office has become a kind of entertainment obstacle course.
As if her writing and editing responsibilities for N&W.com weren’t enough to keep her out of trouble, Kristin also hosts a number of weekly radio shows: Reel Discovery, Shelf Discovery, and On the Marquee. She’s also a proud member of the Broadcast Film Critics Association (CriticsChoice.com), the Central Ohio Film Critics Association (COFCA.org), the Online Film Critics Society (OFCS.org), and the Women Film Critics Circle (WFCC.Wordpress.com).
Kristin lives in Columbus, Ohio, with her husband, Paul, and their daughter, Anna. She welcomes questions, comments, and fan mail at kdk@nightsandweekends.com.
