Spaghetti western == bedtime

I’ve made a fantastic amount of progress on that film score since I last wrote. I’m only worried that my amount of progress isn’t fantastic enough. That’s okay — if anyone can pull this off, I can.
One neat bit of chance circumstance: some guy happened to be practicing on a flute just outside my window this afternoon. So now the mystery flautist features in a bit part in my score. And he doesn’t even know it.
Without really meaning to, I’ve pretty much been writing it from the end backwards. I still have nothing but absolute silence for the first minute of the film. It’s almost ready to ship AND I DON’T EVEN KNOW HOW IT BEGINS YET.
My sign from the heavens that it’s time to give it a rest and go to bed for the night: the part I was just working on a few minutes ago is sliding down the slippery slope into … spaghetti western territory. Yep. I really need to back up and clear my head.
