:03:01
and while we were recording
The Creeps...

:03:03
I was smoking dope and drinking beer,
and it really struck me...

:03:07
I was no longer paying attention
to the actors and performances.

:03:12
And I thought, "My God,
what am I doing this for?" You know?

:03:17
And I realized also
when I was recording...

:03:20
that I wasn't even a director.
:03:23
I wasn't. I knew there were
stilted performances...

:03:26
and I did nothing
to rectify the situation.

:03:30
So I think, though, it's good
to face things like this...

:03:35
because then you can deal
with them and realize 'em.

:03:38
And when you're ready
to shoot Northwestern...

:03:41
you've got these emotions
and these complexities cornered.

:03:54
UWM. Amount due, $878.54.
:03:58
That's funny. I just borrowed
gas money from my ma tonight.

:04:05
This is gonna be interesting.
The IRS, Wisconsin.

:04:11
My God.
:04:13
Amount delinquent, $81.11.
Oh, man.

:04:17
"Resulting in a lien on any real
and personal property you own...

:04:20
within ten days of this notice."
:04:22
September 6, and we're October 19.
:04:25
Luckily, it's just $81.
What are they gonna take...

:04:28
my Night of the Living Dead book?
:04:31
Oh, my God.
"Legal actions."

:04:35
Unbelievable.
:04:42
Who wants to be faced
with this crap?

:04:48
"Your AT&T Universal Card
has arrived"?

:04:52
Oh, God. Kick-fucking-ass,
I got a MasterCard.

:04:57
I don't believe it, man.
Life is kinda cool sometimes.
