I went to Barnes & Noble a while back and bought a cute little journal that I planned on keeping my thoughts in..to later put in my blog. But I don't find it as easy recording thoughts on paper as I do when I'm behind the keyboard. I have no idea when that happened, considering, for years I wrote in a diary..Your basic, lined paper diary. Maybe it's just that I have the luxury of typing now and that's why I can't find myself relaying my thoughts on paper. I'm spoiled in a way. I did ask for and got for Christmas, one of those nifty mini tape recorders. I wanted one because I often find myself driving down the road and coming up with ideas or thoughts that I want to write down for my blog or for articles but obviously I can't write them down while I'm driving on the highway, so I have this recorder now and when I think of something, I can record it and get it on paper(or computer) when I get home. I think it was really a good investment on my part, most times I go crazy telling myself not to forget the idea that I have in my head..A little hard to concentrate on I-295 in rush hour traffic, all the while coaching myself not forget the sudden inspiration I had a minute ago! Lately, I've been wondering if I still want to continue with writing the book or just turn it into a complete work of blogging. Either way, I've been busy writing things down and taking notes and reading Writer's Digest. Which by the way is not a bad magazine.

A little R & R

So, I was thinking of how I had some vacation time left at work..and I had been saving it for when my sister had the baby. Well this Saturday is the last of the year and if I don't use my time, I lose it. So I got some nerve up and I went in to talk to my boss..He was surprisingly nice about it..I had a day and a half of time left, so I took a half day today and then I'm off tomorrow.. Not bad huh? I have so much I can do..Need to pay bills, clean my room, some of the house and do the mound of laundry that I've so nicely concealed behind my bedroom door..(in a basket of course)
I need a day to sleep in..I don't know the last time I rolled over at 7, laughed at the alarm clock and went back to sleep..but tomorrow I will!!

Introducing: ME

Ok, so this is the first day of my blog here. I have been looking for a website that was secure and pretty known. Hopefully, this site is it! I guess I'll find out huh? I haven't tried the whole blog thing yet..except for the one I have on MySpace, but I know that I will be here mostly every day and sometimes more than once. I have always kept a journal. Mostly cute little diaries when I was little and then as time went on it was any notebooks I could find. Now as I've matured, I've really started getting into the fancy shmancy journals that Barnes & Noble offers. However, I find it so much easier to record my thoughts via the keyboard. Why? I'm not sure. Just me I guess. So anyhow: to all my fellow bloggers: please comment on my thoughts anytime you'd like. There will always be something new and interesting to tell.
