Slow to Post Thang Happens

For shame that nothing’s been written here, and today that’s changing. This simple post is a reminder to myself that my personal blog can use some simple, personal touches, like frequent updates. For one, I’m still writing (covered on my writing blog), and I’ve been working on getting an item published.

I grew my facial hair, and the hair on my head out. It’s been looking wild and rough, and I kind like it as an experiment, as I haven’t grown the hair on my head out in years. It’s not as cool as the other thick beards I’ve seen dudes with, but this was a good learning for me. A friend called my look, “bohemian,” which may be a great way to describe it. Speaking of hair, I need to wash the one on the top. Just to get it to clean, and I’ve done my writing quota for the day.

Some Seasons

Oooh, look. I'm outside, and this is one of my Mom's flower. I believe she said it was a Lilly. Looks pretty. Snapped a pic, and decided to share it. I think its a pretty flower.

This is one of the various images I took from Mom's garden. She loves to plant and nurture them. I like to take pictures of the end results. Flowers can be impressive, and I dunno if I can take care of them with the passion they need. Maybe one houseplant to start off first, then develop a taste for more.

It's good to see them grow, but it's sad when it gets so cold, you can't really do much but cover them, and hope the frost doesn't kill them. Such is nature.

Tuesday

Holidays have a way of throwing me off, as I am used to certain activities on a Monday like the mail and garbage collections. It seems simple, yet it's important in the scheme of regulations in the course of the day. 

It's very cool today, and the sun appears a little hidden. It was warm outside when I went out there. Not bad.  Better than that fire roasting heat that usually shows up and makes anyone out there suffer. Also, the AC died in my car again. I simply going to have to live with that for the moment. 

Yesterday was Memorial Day, and it was a time to reflect on people who gave their lives in military service.

This Morning

This morning deserves a blog post. Here's why. I'm in bed, pretending I will fall back asleep, but that won't happen. I'm wide awake, the the only sound happening is the fan in the room. I can hear the neighbors car door close. My senses are awake should I have coffee? Had two big cups of water yesterday. Didn't do too much for me. Don't even think I ran to the bathroom too often. Was I dehydrated?

Disoriented

Woke up, and kinda don't know how to act. I want coffee, and I promised myself to drink three glasses of water as well. It's hard for me to drink a glass of water in the morn. 

Sleep pattern was off for the last few days. Woke up anywhere from 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM. I have been going to sleep between 11:00 PM to 12:00 AM. Usually I don't fall asleep until 2:00 AM. I'm a mess.

Wednesday

I'm up and about writing. I need to do something positive. It should be awesome. I'm gonna keep being productive, and revising and updating. 

It's cool today. Feels nice. I'm enjoying this sensation. It makes my day.

Migraine

Woke up with neck pain that leads to a migraine. It's slowly fading away. I rather work on some projects, but one step at a time. I need to get my head working. Inshould also make up my bed. It sounds overly simplistic, but a made bed starts a day with a kind of energy that's positive and upbeat. So later, migraine. I have to get stuff done.

Morning

I'm up earlier than expected. Nature called, and afterwards I went to lay back down. Not that there's anything pressing to do at the moment. When I do rise, it's time for a job search. I'm  sleepy again. How apt.

The Early Bird

I feel like a hot mess. Need a glass of water or two before I get my day going. Somewhere after that, coffee might fall into the mix. I feel like a mess. I'm gonna get a couple of errands done, and work on my writing. Gotta keep plugging away, or nothing gets done.

Early

I feel that stinging in my eye, which is the stuff of allergies. Hopefully it will pass soon. Not out of bed yet. Need to drink much more water today, as I failed to drink much of it yesterday. Yesterday's coffee was nasty (wrong non-dairy creamer). I loathe bad creamer. I'd rather not have coffee if I can't get something decent in the mix.

Revising

Tried to revise a post for my CINEs blog, but that stalled. Apparently I need to not look at it for a short while. Sitting in the rocking chair outside. Dusted it off with a rag to get rid of excess pollen. Needed to go outside, even if for five mins and chill. Then I dicided to write this post. It's cool in the shade, and warm in the sun. I can relax a little.

Waiting

Sometimes waiting is good. I like waiting. Stuffed my face with a meat lovers omelette. Couldn't finish it. Killed the toast (with strawberry jam), the hash browns, and drank a part of the water. I'm ready to relax now. Don't know if I can do much more at the moment as the food coma cometh. Fortunately I wrote this out. As mundane as this post is, I got it done.

Thursday

As I sit in this chair and look down at the keyboard, I'm reminded that updates don't type themselves.  Commitment is tricky, but it can be good. I slipped in the updates, so getting back is promising. I need to keep writing.  I feel like I have nothing to say, but that's wrong. My mind is simply in a state of chaos. It needs some settling, or I need to figure a way to get myself focused.

Distracted

Today is one of those days when outside forces seem to take holed of everything, and serve as distractions. On top of that, the moment I had something to say via writing, I had more distractions. What is worse if I didn't want to feel obnoxious and put on headphones, but I should.  

Now that I've returned from errands, that had to have complications, now I sit here and want headphones. I need sleep. At this point I want to be left alone to mellow out. No need for tv shows or talking. Just some peace and quiet.

Late in the Day

The weather's been cold, wet, and rainy. Yesterday it was warm, then cool, then rainy. Once the rain came into play, I stayed as dry as possible. It's a pain when it gets to that discomfort of the cooling effects of weather. Dunno when the weather will uplift. It's kinda a pain in the tush. The only good thing I can think of is the rain washes some of the pollen off of things. The silver lining was found. There we go.

Back To Writing

I promised myself two things: one is to keep working on the novel I started. The second is to upkeep my personal blog.  The personal blog always gets the short end of the stick, and since I'm procrastinating a little, I might as well get a blog post in.  

I must be fair. I did write a few hundred words this morning. I also started writing more while sitting out in the patio.  It's been cool, breezy, and rainy outside.  Since there was a chance that it would be bug-biting free for a short time, and I wanted a break from my laptop, I took to writing outside. I'm happy to collect myself, or refresh as the case may be, and get some things done.  

I did manage to write three paragraphs for the novel, so it isn't me 100% slacking off. I'd like to get a couple more paragraphs written while I'm outside to at least call what I'm doing more of a success. So my procrastinating allowed me to fulfill a promise as well as keep writing. Not bad for the first part of the day.

Mellow Days

My head's not in the creative game today. It's rather disconcerting. Was hoping for some magic today in regards to writing. I feel a bit lost. I need to do something constructive. I need to be constructive. Perhaps another one word at a time day. This is like a bad shadow that looms too much. I will endeavor to keep marching through the woes.

Today

I must write something today on this blog, so let's go. Applied to more jobs yesterday, and it's been impressive the amount of assessment tests many applications have.  Might as well go through them. It's just a phase to. Go through, like a bad game of time consumption for no other reason that someone said you should. 

Today is nice, minus the pollen, which I hate.  It coats everything and it's nasty. Of course, my allergies make things even more troubling. I hate that this has happened, but I gotta go through it all. Could be worse, I suppose. Pollen could be layered on the ground like snowfall. Then what the heck would any allergy sufferer do?

No Title

I'm supposed to write something on this here post. Today I'm having cabbage, rice, and beef stew. It tastes good, and I know cause I had it yesterday. It should be even better today. I need to go write more, which I haven't done well at all. This post has some plus and fail moments. I dun not how to smoothe it out yet. I say this as I sip my tea.

PRODUCTION UPDATE - Bee and PuppyCat: The Series

Today's Writing

Nearly forgot to write something here. It's gonna be a one word at a time post. Today. Watching Robocop 2 like its brand new to me. Not so brand new if I'm blogging while watching.  Maybe "comfort movie" is a better way to describe today's movie. Something blatantly satirical about this film that went over my head as a child, that I'm seeing now. A committee that wants a softer, kinder Robocop seems perverse and banal, yet it holds a little true. What an interesting moment in a film.  That and it predicted the bankruptcy of Detroit, and the hubris of corporate America's involvement in the degradation of states.

BEGINNiNGS: Setting a Story in Motion

The Toxic Purge

One thing I do these days is remind myself negative thoughts are bad for my well-being, and counterproductive. They truly lower the enjoyment, and block creative juices, unless I find a way to channel negatives into a positive. I have yet to do that, and if it doesn't yield goodness and blessings, it has to be purged. So I banish negative thoughts from my mind. Don't need them to start my day. I'm praying for better quality of living and enjoyment of life.

One Word At a Time

I need to do more writing on some of the concepts I came up with this week, and the ones I rediscovered and revised. This means sitting down and write out a few paragraphs. I need to put more effort behind these paragraphs, to help them grow. I don't mind a few lines at a time if it means a credible build to something promising. I'm gonna stay positive and focus on the things I do have power over.

Scribbled Down Stuff

Yesterday I was looking for an old file for a concept I half-wrote down, and needed to get back to. I didn't find it on the computer. Only after I decided to leave the computer alone, and use my notepad did I see the notes scribbled down. I typed the notes, and made a file. I'm reminded I need to back up the file as planned. For that matter, I need to organize a lot of my concepts I do have files for, then back them up.

Dragon Age: Inquisition -- Discover the Dragon Age

Hello Again

I'm trying to get myself into gear with writing and managing my social media, so this is one attempt to get my Blogger page together. All it takes is five sentences to make a paragraph, and I think I can manage to type this.

To make a stronger topic for my blog, I wrote, and, submitted a story for consideration to e-publish via Amazon. I don't know if it'll be accepted, but I needed to make an effort to get something positive done in regards to prose writing. I'm always writing, but the prose suffered greatly, as I hit a stump, and refused to write it out. I was being timid, when I needed to be a lion.

It's been a mad few days of events that's left me frustrated, and feeling like I crashed into a wall repeatedly. That has left me thinking of how to do something while I try to recover from the stress. I need to keep myself doing things that offer me positive expressions.

The sky has opened some, and putting some effort into getting my writing back in shape is one of the things I'd like to do today. Hello again, Blogger. I want you to shine, like back in the day. Let me at least put the effort into the material. I know I may not get it at 100%, but I won't give up on you.

It's Been A While

It's been a long time since I've written on my personal blog. Today seems a better time than any. If it's one word at a time, then so be it. I feel optimistic about life. Perhaps because I'm writing more. Perhaps it's nature, and with the change of season leads to a prelude in my life of positive energy. I thank God for the positive feelings, and getting though any negative experiences. let's be honest, life can be unfair, trying, and upsetting as all get out. All anyone can do is endure, and keep trying to be a better person in the face of all adversities. Praying also helps.

So I've written something. A lot of something. I'm glad for it. Sometimes the non-posting seems like complete and utter silence, when it's not. Glad to be up and about today, and giving thanks for things that are good. this moment is good, and a blessing. Hopefully the clarification and inspiration shall last though out the day. I got a lot of writing I wish to do, and I need to get to it.

Have a good day.
