Chimney Rock, NC

I hate February 15th.. to me, it’s kind of like your 20th birthday… you’re not a teenager anymore, yet you can’t buy booze.

I guess the only thing worse would be the year that I actually turned 20.. this day sucked HARD that year (btw, tomorrow is my birthday.. if you hadn’t guessed).

oh what a fun weekend it was

check out more wordless wonders at wordless wednesday.

lapping on the rocks
soothing every nightmare
humbling my soul

quiet sounds in the wind
the whisper of days long past
a step back in time

..as if I didn’t have enough going on already. I’ve decided that participating in those weekly writing/poetry/etc things is a good thing for both my health and sanity. These are the ones I am hoping to keep up with:

• Wordless Wednesday: Weekly pictures… no words required!
• One Deep Breath: Poetry (mostly Haiku).
• Poetry Thursday: Poetry… haven’t done anything with this one except read it.
• Sunday Scribblings: Weekly writing prompts.

What sucks is that I already have my wordless-wednesday picture… and it’s freakin sunday… guess I should be scribbling (or, writing my research paper… hmph!)

Gotta give some kudos to the guys who put in the hours putting together, coding, testing, and releasing wordpress! Simplest upgrade I’ve ever endured.. good job guys!

nothing to add right now — just some lyrics to pass the time..

Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
is just the freight train coming your way

Still alive — a mega-post is probably coming.. going to tweak my theme a bit and try an upgrade in my development space and get my blog more… well… “current”

life got in the way the last few weeks, and I’m trying to get back to writing and to writing meaningful posts (which is what I decided a while back when I started my blog for real).
