Thanks. They happen occasionally. If I wrest one out of myself tonight David Mamet himself should applaud

Loved it. What tops it off is how furious Tomas was going to be.

I give myself the option of revisiting characters or doing prequels/sequels. Everyone seems to want me to bring back Paul, the burglar who is more voyeur than thief

I suppose I could tell Tomas's side of it one day. Or at least what he was doing while this was occurring.

wow. interesting idea, didn't catch that nuance, but since writers rewrite about 8 times...it would be cool to set that up earlier in the story so it hits home. Maybe Sheila's and Tomas' personal drama related to the yard sale events, and his only way of dealing with (=suppressing) it at the time was Anger, while Sheila faces it in the Now & moves on as she moves across the yard...
