Wrote this one under the "Inclement Weather" Theme. First time where the middle of the story just evolved. I knew the entire story that I wanted to take place except why he took his mask off. It came to me and wrapped up in the end rather well, just while writing it. That's what I like about story telling. You get to figure out as you go what story ( Read more... )

I just finished probably my new favorite book. The Road by Cormac McCarthy. I wish right now as I go about my evening dazed, that I could tell you how amazing this book is. If it helps, I checked the book out from the library and now after finishing it am going directly to a book store to buy a copy. Not only to pay money in support of the Author, ( Read more... )

There is an emerging sport called Free Running/Pakour pioneered by this man, and I would love to have the stamina, in-shapyness and strength to be able to do it ( Read more... )

Instead of focus all I feel is FUCKTHIS!!! I can't seem to focus at all. I can't sit down and just write anything. I get all pent up angst, and want to explode at my cats for no apparent reason.

I don’t know the guy, can’t even picture the site, I am no where near the scene and yet it’s just hitting me in the gut as these events tend to do. It really does just turn my stomach and remind me of my brother. That ( Read more... )

I had a weird daydream this morning. It was just after I had opened my eyes and I don’t think I was fully awake yet. It scared me. It also gave me an idea for a story (though the concept has been done before so I don’t know if I will attempt it.)

Basically I woke up and everyone else in the entire world had disappeared. Gone. I find myself ( Read more... )

So I efile my Income taxes right? That costs a total of about $25 not too bad really, but what happens when you finally realize after three weeks of not receiving the refund yet? You start looking for answers. My first question? Did it get processed and is there a check on it's way? I check the IRS website and the MI treasury website. Both were ( Read more... )

So I went to the local library in East Lansing to look at some books on the Prohibition and Chicago during that era and came across a Biography about Al Capone that was supposedly listed on the Children’s Shelves. The EL library grows stranger each time I go over there ( Read more... )
