Overheard in LA

Industry Person: Have you ever heard of Bekah Brunstetter?

Other Industry Person: Uhhhhh, no. Why?

Industry Person: she was a playwright and TV writer, she was sort of on her way to some level of success. But then she just — disappeared.

Other Industry Person: …..like. Into the mountains?

Industry Person: No, she’s in Eagle Rock. She just like. Completely left the industry.

Other Industry Person: whoa. What does she do now? Does she write books?

Industry Person: She makes toddler meatloafs.

Other Industry Person: ….what?

Industry Person: like she exclusively makes tiny meatloafs. Like she spends all of her time, all of her energy, perfecting recipes for little toddler-friendly meatloafs and figuring out new ways to hide tiny pieces of different vegetables in them. She also spends a fair amount of time plating them, then neatly arranging the leftovers into little rows in dishwasher safe containers.

Other Industry Person: ….whoa. Is she happy?

Industry Person: oh, Very.

Other Industry Person: How do you know?

Industry Person: SHE IS MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
