What I will do to post a blog…
Walking by a baby picture of my friend, I thought about how she struggles with depression. In the picture she is smiling, and her brother stands beside her. Her parents are smiling in the next picture on the wall. I wonder what they think about the fact that their daughter struggles with depression. Then I think about life. What I think about life? Well, I would tell you, but I think I’m thinking far too seriously and so I won’t.
At times I wish I could write a funny story, or write as David Sedaris does. I always laugh when I read his writing.
This morning I watched lizards. I didn’t intend to, but the path I was running on seemed to be filled with them. The sun had barely risen but already the heat from the pavement was drawing them. They crouched, push-upping their bodies until my shoe almost touched them and then they scurried, slipping their tails across their tracks.
I talked to the one I love today and we admitted that we both love each other. I am glad about that, but the rest of our conversation and thoughts is private. Just thought I’d let you know.
This evening I watched a movie by myself. As an introvert it is too easy to forget to take time alone when I have someone I could watch movies with. But the alone time is necessary. It keeps me sane and content.
Ten minutes ago I was listening to Enya and while my goal was to sleep by 10pm, another of my goals was to write each day, even if it is not the most artistic or well-written piece. I suppose I am doing the traditional thing, journaling each day, except that my “journal” is online and it will not always contain words regarding my personal life.
Funny image: a girl is sitting on the driveway in front of her house next to a car. She is wearing a hat and half of her hair is falling out from under it because it came loose from the ponytail she pulled it into earlier. The reason she is sitting in her driveway, in the dark, at 11:06pm at night is because she is trying to connect through the wireless service of her neighbors to post a blog she just wrote. Goodnight.
