WHAT’S PLAYING: Odetta “Hit or Miss”
This year, I’ve decided to be more positive and less judgmental.
I just wish people would make it easier for me by not being assholes.
I think I just figured out why I’m still single.
Happy Valentine’s Day!

Holiday Break
WHAT’S PLAYING: Whitesnake “Here I Go Again”
It’s been a long time since my last post. I want to blame my absence on work or school or poor health. And, while all of the above have been factors, the truth is that I’ve been struggling with an ennui I can’t seem to shake.
So, I’ll be taking the next two weeks off to read my favorite books (LOTR, anyone?), watch my favorite movies (I have all twelve seasons of Murder, She Wrote on DVD. I sense a marathon coming.), and spend time with my favorite people.
If that doesn’t jump-start my creative batteries, nothing will.
See you in two weeks!

This is Why I Shouldn’t Take Breaks
WHAT’S PLAYING: Christina Aguilera feat. Nicki Minaj “Woohoo”
Recently, I decided to take a break from writing and recharge my batteries. While that might work for some, when it comes to someone as lazy as I am, inactivity inevitably leads to stagnation. The result being that I’ve written precious little in the last four or five weeks. And I’m not just talking about my novel. Blog posts, Facebook, Twitter, hell even my grocery list, all have fallen by the wayside while I languished in the doldrums feeling sorry for myself.
This morning, I decided enough was enough. No more self-pity parties. I got out of bed, sat down and made a list of all the things I wanted to accomplish today.
This is what I came up with:
Yes, I know it needs work, but it’s a process, right?
*Sigh* Don’t judge me.
