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.
