Autograph signing on Saturday...
I need to leave for watch in about 45 minutes. It's 8 hours of me trying to keep myself awake--I even bought a Monster as backup and I don't really enjoy those things. I tried really hard to take a nap after work today, but my mind just wouldn't settle down. Come to think of it, it's been going non-stop for a few days now. In fact, I'll let you all in on a little secret...
I've been writing a book. Well, I can't really call it that, per se. It's more of an...autobiography. Remember all of those entries where I've said things like, "I won't go into too much detail," or "I might post more later..."? I really have written a lot more, just not in my journal. My "book" is nothing but honesty and details. It's very personal. I pretty much started it after I finished my most prized possession--my scrapbook, AKA Amber's Feel Better Book. I started that scrapbook when I was 16 and finished it before I left for bootcamp. It was kind of my escape through the rough years of teenager-hood. I love flipping through the pages of it and I hope to get the same nostalgic feeling when I flip through my newest endeaver. True, I have been, technically, working on it since I was 17, but I've always just had all of the writings in separate files. Now, I'm putting them all together. I doubt any of you will ever get to read it--not that you'd want to anyway--but, it definitely expresses who I really am.
I spent 4 hours writing yesterday. That's a huge, gigantic, big deal for me when you consider that I've had writer's block for what seems like a solid few years now. I don't think I've written anything worth sharing since I was a junior in high school. It felt really nice to get the urge to write again.
So, who knows? Maybe this is a best seller in the works. I doubt it, but I'm a dreamer at heart and I've listened to my head a little too much recently.
