Writer's Blog

One of the reasons (besides the usual running after a 2 yr. 3 month old) I haven't been writing that often , is that I sort of - can't! It seems that I always had stuff to talk about when I started this blog earlier this year. I probably still do, but for some reason, when I click on "new post", see the blank field staring at me, with the blinking cursor tapping it's foot, as if to say "c'mon, I don't have all day", I have nothing to say. I guess I mean - "entertaining" to say.

Anyway, I decided that I would write anyway. Thinking that maybe by writing, getting back into the groove of it, I could break through this blog "block" I've been blocked by for several months now.

In my last post, I wrote about what was "really on mind" and that seemed to work. Tonight, what's really on mind is really not that fascinating quite frankly: "Could my daughter still be teething at this age?", "what do I need to get done tomorrow?", "Keanu Reeves looks way better w/o a beard (he's on a Tivoed Letterman Restless Hubs is watching)"...not so interesting.

I could write about my day: I refilled out some paperwork to get health insurance. I took a much-needed long-*ss nap. My aunt is visiting my parents', so we went over there for dinner. See, not so interesting.

Anyway, like I said, I AM just going to keep writing and at least I'll feel good about keeping up on this thing. I hope you all (all one of you now!) can bare with me through my Writer's Blog.

In the meantime, check out this blog. I just discovered it and think it's pretty funny. I wonder if SHE ever has writer's blog.

Hi Restless. It's me, your #1 fan!! :)

I hear ya. I know sometimes (well, most times) I write about the most mundane things. Sometimes it's totally random and I'm sure people are falling asleep.

You're a great writer! I know you'll be inspired!

Have a good weekend!

You're the best Nicolle. You're so funny - "falling asleep" - I think not. Thanks so much. You too!

Hi Cristina! Thanks so much for leaving a comment! I've been much in need of them as you might've noticed. I've kind of been wondering if anyone besides Nicolle has even been visiting! Anyway, thanks so much and I hope to see you more often! BTW, do you have a blog? Let me know.

Wait a minute - your thoughts on Keanu are extremely relevant. Especially if they come with a picture.

Surely you've been to my blog when my brain is dried up; I post photos of cute boys. It counts. :D

Stephanie: You think? Well, I'll have to reconsider next time that thought crosses my mind and I don't blog about it. As a matter of fact, now that I think about it, I now have a subject for my next post!
BTW, you could blog about ANYthing and it would be good:-D Some people just have it!

I have two daughters, ages 1 and 4. I wasn't able to get my sh*t together to write ANYTHING until the first one was about 2.5.

For some reason, it took strong-willed toddler, a full-time job and a second pregnancy to catapult me back into the world of writing.

When I think about all of the time I procrastinated away before kids I cry a little inside...

PS: Thanks for the blog shout-out! It totally made my day.
