[ 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.

| write about it: week 18 |

I wrote this on the back of a tri-care envelope while standing in bed check formation waiting to get my name called. soo.. forgive its randomosity?

She looked into the night sky and saw nothing but emptiness with pinpricks of hope. She felt the weight of the moonlight on her face and the [...]

| hello, beautiful. |

I have spoken to the rest of the world and we all feel sorry for you. Because we get to look at you but all you have to look at, is us.

what a lovely way to be told you’re beautiful.

I don’t say it often enough. in fact, it isn’t said often enough at all. [...]

| untitled; from me to you |

the light was burgeoning, but the darkness was pressing harder. his faith was building bridges, but the wind was catching them and breaking them like little flailing pieces of string. the words began welling in his chest, clawing their way up his throat, looking for escape, but fear pushed them right back down again. the morning [...]

| a red bow |

She stood in front of him, too far to touch, but too close to ignore. Her hands were wrapped tightly, oh so tightly, around a red-bowed present. She held it out to him; her eyes, her mouth, begging him to take it. Wanting him to take it. Needing him to take it. But he shut his [...]

| write about it: week 15 |

alright, so I missed 2 weeks. oops. forgive me? it’s not even that I decided against doing it, it’s moreso that I completely forgot about it. yup. completely. but I’m here now, so everything should get back to normal. I’m also gonna try to stay on top of my musician of my hour, though who knows [...]

| write about it: revisited |

well, it’s been a while. actually, exactly two months since my last write about it. I was considering just nixing the project.. seeing as it’s even more difficult than it used to be to squirrel time away to write on a consistent basis, but my last couple of days made me realize that I need to [...]

| word of the day? poetry. |

so I was antagonized today into believing I should post some of my poetry. egged on, really. yeah, that’s right, we talked smack about poetry. weird? maybe.

it’s something I usually keep much more reserved than the rest of my writing, though it’s not because I believe it sucks or anything.. I just think that so few [...]

| erm, I meant to do that.. |

time is quickly flowing out from inside my tightly twined fingers, and I’m starting to realize there’s a heck of lot of things that I meant to do. aand that’s where they stayed.. in the “meant to do” pile. I’d like to say that I regret all of the time I wasted, and things I never [...]

| write about it: week 12 |

I’m writing from an unfamiliar computer today (a mac! I’m housesitting..), and it makes everything seem much more exciting and out of the ordinary. weird? probably. true? definitely. unfortunately, I also don’t have my english books with me to flip through and find a writing prompt, and I don’t really have enough time to scour the [...]

| write about it: week 11 |

I feel triumphant today. I passed my pt test (hooray!) and got promoted, thereby relieving a large chunk of my stress. unfortunately, now I’ve got a raging headache. probably related to my jaw problems, but it’s making it incredibly difficult to concentrate on anything. so all this to explain why I’m waiting to write this dang [...]
