RIGHT BRAIN
Let's do this! C'mon!
LEFT BRAIN
Are you out of our mind?!
RIGHT BRAIN
Pretty please?! It's only a hundred pages! It's nothing like 50,000 words!
LEFT BRAIN
No.
RIGHT BRAIN

But I'm so bored!
LEFT BRAIN
(rolling eyes and snorting in disgust)
I let you take Art Appreciation. Stop whining. You can write a screenplay when the semester is over.
RIGHT BRAIN
But I want to do something creative now. Now!
HINDBRAIN
SHUT UP! I'M TRYING TO RUN A LIMBIC SYSTEM HERE! DO YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS IF I LOSE MY CONCENTRATION!?! DON'T MAKE ME SHUT DOWN THE FLOW OF BLOOD TO YOU TWO!
(stunned silence fills the hemispheres. )
LEFT BRAIN
Anatomy homework, then?
RIGHT BRAIN.
Ok. Can we do the coloring book?
LEFT BRAIN
Sure. Whatever.

In far more words, this is pretty much how I felt last November not doing NaNo because of school. Its all worth it in the end though, you're already working out scenes in your head. By next April you'll be finishing a script in no time flat!
