Problem, Officer?
I’ve had an eventful day, the events of which I’d like nothing better than to chronicle here. Unfortunately all my adventures, which included a run in with the cops, have taken their toll on me; and I can barely see through this blinding headache that is threatening to burst all the veins in my head. All I really wanna do is die. What I mean by that, dear reader, is sleep.
My blog may not reflect it, but I have a very wordy story to share every single day. So why does my blog say different, you may ask. Here’s why. At the day’s end, my plan is to freshen up, feed, then recline in the sofa and write away, while watching some TV; or simply use the TV as background noise, while I blog and read your blogs. Everything usually goes to plan, until the sun sets. For a reason I’m yet to understand, my creative juices seem to run out as soon as the sun is over the horizon. It’s like a spell. The sun sets, and I go dry. Try as I might, nothing inspiring enough to have me hit the publish button will come out. A few half-hearted drafts will try to push their way to the front, but nothing publish worthy. After hours of trying, I give up, shelf the draft, and wait for the sun to come out. The cycle may sometimes continue for a few days, during which the publish button may or may not be hit.
As I speak, type, the sun has set. The gods have spoken, ladies and gentlemen, I must retire. You’ll hear of the Adventures of the Eclectic One as soon as she’s added spell-lifting to her bag of tricks.
I completely understand the need for evening down time. If I didn’t shut my brain off after dinner, I’d never sleep at all.
Exactly. The body seems to have a self-preservation reflex of it’s own that kicks in even when we try to ignore it.
I wish I had a self preservation reflex, but mine seems to be faulty. I can easily stay up til 4 or 5 am on the internet, despite telling myself I should go to bed at 10pm becaue I know how much I struggle to get up in the mornings
Stay up to 4 – 5am with optimum productivity? Wow I can’t do that. I’m only able to do that watching movies or reading a book. The other exception was back in school, when we had to stay up late reading for an exam or something. I wonder what kept us going. The fear of failing, probably.
Oh I hear that my sisters. For years I was the first one to bed, than teenagehood hit our eldest son and it was game over from there. Let’s just say he was a super handfull. Now I am trying to put the genie back in the bottle but it is hard, for many reason.
The Eclectic LadyBird thank you for coming to my corner of the internet! I hope you visit often!
The pleasure was mine, thank you for dropping by too.
Yes, I am experiencing the joys of a male teenager right now. Never a dull moment.
Crubin I will be praying nightly for you! Please do one thing I did not do: Take care of yourself during this time, because when your male teen is out of the house you will still be there!
Lord, I lay my heart before You
And I pour out my very soul.
Desperate, You know what I need
As empty before You I go.
Lord, strengthen my weary heart–
Make it strong once again.
For only You can meet this need,
Hold me tight, my Savior Friend.
I know no other way to go
I’m spent beyond my measure.
Fill me Lord, my Life, my Song
Spin my life with peace, Your Treasure.

But I want to know about the run-in with the cops!
Haha…very soon you shall.
Hi ladybird. I cant have the TV on when I am writing or doing anything of that sort. i DO however put on the headphones and set my media player on the computer to play ‘cinemix” internet radio at a low level. This helps me to ignore the wokrld around me and concentrate on my task. I find that this is wonderful when I am writing, or reading my Blogger Friends..- Try it.
P.S.- I still own you a return email. Have a great Week.
Nuff
PPS ah Ah Ah – there is that automatic filled in check box ‘Notify me by email — a gotta watch that thing now or you will get LOADS of email – for ever. wrod Press management at its finest.
Ah, background radio! It was a great accompaniment to my intensive study for the mighty, all-determining A’ Level exams, just yesterday yet years ago. Sweet times. ‘cinemix’… google to the rescue…
The checked box…I should edit my settings.
Thanks for dropping in.
In my case, I blog best at night. I don’t know why but the tiredness and laziness I have at night makes me write instead of doing homework you see…
haha…do I hear a constructive procrastinator?
lol yes? xD
So you’re not a Night Owl, so what? Neither am I!
