One More Time
Okay, I’ll try this again… I’ve been slacking on my freewriting lately and apparently I haven’t posted in almost a week. Ooops!
What have I been up to, you ask? Well, I took a few days off of work. I’d call them “mental health days” but that’s lame. Basically I had a migraine that probably could have [...]
I hate my job.
I hate my job. No, that’s not true. At different times my job can be interesting, challenging, rewarding and even–occasionally– fun. Even though my projects are much the same from year to year, there is a great deal of variety in what I do and I’m able to have my hands in a number of [...]

I haven’t done one of these freewrites for a while. As usual, I have lots of stuff going through my head.
My dog has to have surgery.
I hope I’m making the right choice.
I don’t have any money.
How did I manage to piss away my entire stimulus check without knowing it? I
‘m trying to do some [...]
Misspent Youth
When I was younger, I got in a lot of trouble. As a very little kid, I had trouble with my emotions. I would get really, really upset and angry and lash out at people—family, friends, teachers. I llwould, essentially, “flip out.”
As I got older, I learned to stifle my outbursts a bit, [...]
I’m a jackass
The topic of this mornings freewrite is what an ass I am…. I went out the other night with work people and got ridiculously drunk. Then I sent some ill-advised text messages/emails. Then sent apologies the next day and haven’t heard back. I’m probably being paranoid, but I just feel like I’m making a complete [...]

I stayed in last night. Finished packing, went to bed early. Then my cousin called and wanted me to come out. I don’t get to hang out with him much, but I was being good… then he kept calling. So I went out. At midnight. The night before I had to leave. Ugh.
Pretty fun time. [...]
Saturday freewrite
Unfortunately, I’ve been up for over an hour already, but still haven’t managed to get anything done. And I have TONS of shit to do.
Last night was fun. Work peeps. Regular peeps. Friends. Friends of friends. I didn’t do as good of a job “connecting” as I’d hoped, but-hey- I had a good time.
Except next [...]
Really?
I read a blog post* yesterday that said in order to determine whether a story is good enough to sell (it was a post about freelance writing) you simply have to guage people’s reactions to it when you tell them. If they say “Really?” it’s something that might be publishable/useable.
I wish I had saved that link [...]
So Fucking What?
In addition to being a *super cool* Gen X movie starring Steven Dorff, “So fucking what” sums up how I’ve been feeling lately.
See, I’ve been going through this “phase” of self-reflection. Whether or not it is tied to my need to start a blog remains to be seen. But, here’s the thing: I [...]
Friday Freewrite
Just rolled out of bed. I think I slept better last night. Thank God. Thoughts of Jason Bateman this morning. hmmmmm….
I need to be productive today. Work stuff and personal stuff. Got a call fromt he cable company last night that I hadn’t paid my bill. Oops. I really thought I had. The guy was [...]
