[ g.i. joe-ing ]

I'm sporadically available. sometimes here, sometimes gone, and I'm not just talking about my mental faculties. know that if I don't respond, or if you don't see posts, it's not because I've lost any love for you.. it's just because I'm not exactly working a nine to five anymore.

that being said, I've missed you all--though I must admit I've missed writing even more. (:

welcome back, self.

{ unsuccessfully scouring bookstores for "everyman" yesterday.. }

oh I’m so tempted to regale you with a quaint anecdote of how I almost brought the smackdown on a granny today. buuut I’ll resist. onward toward writing. (:

I’m kinda clueless today, not really sure what to write about. I’ve been battling major writer’s block most of this week, [...]

well, we don’t have any coffee, so I’m drinking tea this morning. golden monkey black tea, to be more specific. and it’s yummy, don’t get me wrong, but it’s not my coffee.

the mug is courtesy of the glennen family. (: love them.

1. I really don’t feel like writing. 2. I had such horrible nightmares last night that I woke up in a cold sweat more than once. 3. oh well, here goes nothing.

I know this late, but I’ve been working on reading some Greek plays today, and analyzing them. That also means that my mind is almost [...]

it’s hard to find time. reallllly hard to find time.

anyways..

in my creative writing class this past week we had to create an image for words that are abstract, generalized, or judgmental. for example.. you can’t touch/taste/feel (in the literal sense)/see/hear sorrow. it’s an abstract concept on its own. but you can always make sorrow tangible. in [...]
