(no subject)
I just went back and read a bunch of old entries. It made me feel better. It's funny how much I say I'll do something, and I end up not doing whatever it was. For instance I said a few times that I would stop drinking so much, but that never really happened. There'll be a time in my life where I'll look back at how much I used to drink and think I was ridiculous.
I really can't sleep right now, but it's not really bothering me tonight. I know I'll be groggy and stuff tomorrow, but even when I sleep enough I'm that way. I've been really entertaining myself with the idea of becoming a writer lately. I downloaded this program a while back called Scrivener. If you haven't heard of it, it's a program that strives to combine everything you need to write research papers, novels, essays, screenplays, and the like all in one program. This means having all of your research available on the same screen that you are actually doing your own writing piece. I started trying to come up with a story, completely fictional, but I don't think that is the direction I want to take my writing. I don't feel like anything I would make up would be interesting enough. I've been thinking of just using myself as a basis for my book. Call it egotistical, but I think writing a book and being completely honest about myself and how I am. To quote the show Dexter, "We only see two things in people; what we want to see and what they want to show us." This quote probably rings true for most people, and I know it's true for myself. Now I have a question for people that read this. Based on my writing style here, would you read a book that I wrote? Not saying that it would be exactly like these entries, but this is my writing style. I'm interested to know if that would be a factor, or if it's more of what the book would actually be about. Let me know!
