November 26th: Day Eight

I'm gonna start this one with a confession. I lied to all of you last day. I said I was going to go out today and do some christmas shopping, among other thing but I didn't do any of it. Besides being a clutz and spilling every drink I've tried to enjoy today, and watching more than my fill of my movies I've spent the day writing.

I'm not the best writer, only my mother would tell you that and she's got way too much bias to be taken seriously (though she does always tell me I have no career in music, so I should refrain from quitting my day job - not that it makes me much money anyway). Though there is some fraction of joy I receive from writing out fantasies. My current story is about a girl, a prophecy, werewolves, and war. It's rather exciting in my head, I wish I could convey the scenes in my head into words for others to view the same picture better. It's got lots of action and I'm finding it hard to connect them without using the same sentence starter over and over again, not to mention how choppy it sound when I read over it. Still it provides me with a way to escape into another world, a world I create, one better than the one I'm forced to deal with in the real world.

That might explain why I like books and movies so much as well. Any escape I can find I take. Every alternate reality created in fiction I would take over my current one. Even if I was one of those New Yorkers who gets crushed by a building, or that friend in the Asylum that doesn't make it out. Admittedly I would prefer to be the sidekick like Bartok or Morph, but either way I would give anything to be a character in a fiction story than a real person. Though I'm sure there's a word to describe such desires, after all there's bound to be a whole slew of people out there who feel the same way, right? Maybe a few of you reading now feel that way.

Moving on from my daydreaming I don't know what else to report and that makes me feel like a horrible blogger, I've barely made it to having a gray bar, and it didn't even have a warning that it would be a short blog like last time (and last time didn't even end up short). I guess I'll leave with my apology on this short and depressing blog, I'll attempt to make tomorrows more interesting for you; maybe I'll try grocery shopping.
