On the 18th day of NoJoMo….

Figured I’d get my entry up for today while I’ve got some time to kill at work.  Today is dragging.  It’s one of those days where you get a lot done but yet time seems to just crawl by.  Not very fun.  But that’s how today has been.  Time has just crawled by slowly.  Yet the weekend will come and time will fly by.  That’s always how it is.  Weekends never seem to crawl by.  Would be nice if they did.  And I’ve got a lovely headache that apparently feels the need to help me start off the weekend.  No!  Bad headache…bad!  lol  Let’s see….still nothing exciting to really report/write about.  Pretty much the same old stuff day in and day out.  Sleep, wake up for work, get ready for work…drive to work and deal with the various idiots out on the road, make it through the work day, drive home dealing with idiots, relax a bit and then repeat it all over again.  It’s funny how in school we do the Monday thru Friday deal and can’t wait to get out of school to break that cycle.  Yet most of us continue that cycle and actually make it worse.  We go from just most of the year doing that cycle to all year long.  And we don’t even get the advantage of breaks like winter break, spring break and such.  Sure there’s vacation time but for a lot of jobs you only earn so much and you get what you earn each pay.  I know some jobs give you the 2 weeks up front at the start of the year but not many places are like that.  Most places it’ll take you a month to earn a little over a day off.  That’s the way life is for most of us.  Unless you end up in some crazy job.  By crazy I mean a job that isn’t the typical office M-F job or something along those lines.  I’m rambling. 

I realize I still need to work on and finish the one story I had started writing months ago.  I’ve just kind of left it hanging.  Mostly cause I’m at that point I’m not sure what to do with the story and I don’t want to force it.  Maybe until it sparks in me again I can look over an old story I wrote and do some edits on it.  Although that’ll involve reading it.  It’s weird cause my dad’s read the story and he’ll talk to me about it and I’m clueless.  lol  I truly write in the moment.  Plus I wrote it years ago so I don’t remember much of it at all.  He’s kind of laughed at me for that.  It’s like here’s a story that I spent time on writing but yet I couldn’t tell you much about characters or even what happens in the story.  lol  That’s how my writing is.  Even in here I can look back on old entries and it’s weird.  It’s like I KNOW that it was me writing it but yet…the words are strange to me.  Like I said…I write in the moment and just go with what I’m thinking.  I don’t really go back and re-read things much.  Maybe I’m odd like that.  Maybe not.  It could be other people are that same way but I don’t know.  Oh well…gotta wrap this up.

I like re-reading. It’s always an adventure. Sometimes you read something and you go, “Wow! I wrote that??” and you’re either really proud or really…embarrassed. 🙂
