doing nothing at all, and it feels oh so good. the wife is out looking at apartments for when we have to move out of this place (after we sell it) and into one for a few months. we are looking for a short-term or month-to-month lease apartment because we'll only be in it for three or four months before our new house is finished.
i'm alternating between the couch and the computer, watching the British Open on tv and answering emails. these lazy days are so few and far between.
i'm going to go back to the couch.

Lucky! I wish I could loaf once in a while...three year olds don't like loafing...they always want to move and play and do this, that or the other thing. :) Enjoy yourself!
ha! i wish, chris. i lost it, bro. i ain't got nothing to write about, as evidenced by this godforsaken blog. i know the adage "writing poorly about nothing at all is better than writing nothing at all." but i don't necessarily agree. at least not right now. once things settle down in my life and get back to some semblance of normalcy, the words will flow again.
Kat, yes, 3-year old aren't really conducive to lazing around. maybe once he grows up and moves out. ;)
sorry to hear of your creative draining. it happens. but, yes, it will pass. it always does. eventually.
Whenever I get blocked like that...I worry...have I written my last poem...and then, something hits me in the head when I'm doing something where I can't write! Like making dinner or showering...It always does pass but I hate being blocked. I'm not exactly blocked right now but I've slowed down a lot. I used to write a poem a day...now, I'm lucky if I write a poem a week!
i used to worry, too, but i've come to realize, in my many years of doing this, that it will eventually come back. it always has in the past, and probably always will in the future.
it still sucks, but good things come to those who wait, right? :)
sorry to hear you are blocked, too. i think calling myself a writer is a bit of a misnomer. i'm not writing more than i am writing. i'm blocked more than i am unblocked. maybe i'm not a writer, per se, as much as i am an aspiring writer. i seem to be aspiring more than i am actually writing.
ah, who cares?
hmmm...might have to try that one. thanks for the tip. it's certainly better than feeling sorry for yourself, though it probably doesn't feel as good.
I always have to listen to music with no words when writing...If I told you what the music was...not one of you would speak to me...ever again! LOL
hmmmm...yeah, what do you listen to?
Yanni?
don't tell me it's Yanni.
