A Little Bit of This, Little Bit of That

      It is hard to believe for me that I have not posted in almost a week.  Sometimes life steps in.  Fate takes over and for reasons too many to mention a person goes through a creative dry spell.  Many times I have forced the words and wrote something anyways for the sake of it.  You could say that is what I am doing now.

       You could call this an old fashioned word purge or perhaps an emptying of the mind.  For many of these days, I had absolutely no words to share.  Chatty Kathy being silent is really something to wrap the head around isn’t it?  I can be quiet.  I have spent the better share of my life withdrawn and quiet. For some of the days my computer decided to take a royal shit and I had to figure out how to fix it.  I am no computer guru by any stretch of the imagination.  That is probably why it has taken me so long to figure it out!  I bought a program at Target called Fix It Utilities, installed it, and let it go to town and fix my computer system.  While my laptop is new, my desktop is old, and let’s face it I do all my writing on my desktop.  It is like an old friend.  I had to contact technical support at one point and this very nice lady not only showed me the way but provided me with the most up to date version of the software.  Somehow during all my screwing around with my computer some important files to Microsoft Office got deleted, went missing, hell I don’t know what happened there but…it no longer works on my desktop.  Thank G0d and sunny Je$us I have a laptop that also has that program on it. 

       Meanwhile, back at the ranch…I just managed to get my computer running as good as it is going to get and THEN I knife myself in the kitchen.  No, not intentionally although the thought has crossed through the cobwebs of my brain before.  I was trying to get into the medicine that the doctor prescribed to keep me sane.  It comes in one of those child safe blister packs that no one in their right mind can get into.  Like always, I went at it with a steak knife.  To make a long story short, the knife slipped and I cut the living piss out of my finger making it painful to type.  

      Excuses, excuses, I know but what can I say?  I have been just doing other things.  I have been focusing on reading, focusing on sharing my photography on Red Gage, and writing little ditties on Bubblews.  I even bought a set of knitting looms, some yarn, and am in the process of making a hat.  Besides that I have taken a more aggressive approach to achieving the dream of having the physique and mentality of being sexy and knowing it.  That so far has been laughable.  I have been working out and I have to admit when I do the wiggle-wiggle-wiggle things move around a little too much and tend to hurt.  All I am going to say is unleashing the girls and then choosing to jump up and down was not my smartest moves.  I almost knocked myself senseless.  

         On a side note, while on my little sabbatical from the internet I was honored to have one of my blogs and one of my pictures included in the debut of the Woven Tale Press!  It is a cool digital magazine that features the best of the blogging world once a month and definitely worth the look-see.  I am not just saying that because I am in this edition not once, but twice but because it is just beyond cool and the other people featured have a plethora of talent.
