How to Write a Screenplay....Right?

Now I understand the reason my blog is called Starting Over....Again. Indeed, I am starting over again with this blog.

 I think my last post was in November, 2010.  It's not that I haven't thought about it.  In fact, I have been trying to figure out how I can remember everything that goes on in my life.  I  think it is this blog, but on the other hand, I watched a show on PBS about this woman who had the same sort of thoughts.  She decided to write a screenplay.  I thought, you know, that might be fun.  Then I decided that well....you have to change speakers quite often, which might get tedious.  Or....just write down all your thoughts about stuff.  Everything that you have wanted to get on paper before you forget.  Which is a big problem.  Then, after it is finished, go back in and plug in the different characters.  Hmm...I don't think that will work.  I got hung up on, well....whose name?  real person? fantasy person?  Family members?  God no!   So, I am still trying to figure it out. The screenplay could be called, wait for it......
"Stalk Yourself", or something akin to that......  I have no idea what that means or where the hell it came from.
