This is nonsense- skip it

Sigh I really don't have anything to write about tonight.  For the past three hours, I've done just about everything aside from actually opening up this page to write.  It's weird because I'm feeling super chatty.  I guess it's different wanting to talk to someone rather than at someone.  I'm in the mood for that volley that a good conversation brings even if it about something silly or nonsensical; I argue that sometimes those are the best conversations.

Of course, I could go into my day which was another good one but I feel like that's all I've been doing this month.  I've only written one creative piece.   It's strange, like I can't focus at all tonight.  My mind has jump wildly from one topic to another.  Though I should be happy that they are all slightly humorous as oppose to troublesome, right?   Each thought swings like a monkey from tree to tree in a tropical breeze.  Gosh, it would be nice if I could go somewhere with that thought rather than just have it be a stand alone metaphor amongst a bunch of other random babblings.

Tonight is one of those nights when I sit here and think, "Am I insane?  Did I really think I could write about something different everyday?"  Obviously the answer is yes as that was the original goal but it is so much more difficult on some days than others.  Thankfully, my coworker is online at the moment and I can juggle between writing here and to her which makes me feel like I'm back in college.  This blog is like the homework assignment I reluctant and unwilling to complete and our chat is my minor distraction that actually allows me to complete it.

I've always found it funny that sometimes especially during times like this that an outside online conversation can actually help speed things along.  It's like the distraction prevents me from being a perfectionist.  However, in this particular case I think that only works when you have some intellectual to write about.  None of this mind-numbing nonsense.  Sigh.  You know what?  I've written four paragraphs and it's been over a half hour already.  I think I should quit while I'm ahead or haven't really started or whatever.  Good night!
