blah.
It's the Monday after my spring break, and let me just tell you, it couldn't be a bleaker Monday if it tried. Well, okay. That's not true. It could probably suck a lot more, but because I woke up to snow and fog this morning, I'm a little grouchy.
I spent my break in California, where I got to see the fabulous darkenedsakura for the first time in nearly five years, and where the weather also was kind of gloomy. But there were no ridiculous classes, so that was a huge plus in California's favor.
I have been thinking about trying to revamp my LJ lately, or, I don't know--do something. A real blog about not boring stuff. I feel like I get into writing ruts (in LJ's case, lack of writing ruts), especially with class, and I always think deadlines or structure will help me. I enjoy starting new things, but sticking to them? That's a different story. Probably not the best mode of operation for someone who would like to spend their life writing things that get published, more specifically, novels.
So yeah. Not really sure what I'm going to do, but I will keep thinking about it. And trying to write here more, and comment more, and do a lot more than just read my f-list. I'm really bad about commenting on things--I'm such a lurker. I really enjoy reading it, though, and I'm trying to get better. I just always feel like that awkward kid who can't ever get the words to come out right or something.
In other social media news, I really like tumblr. I like looking at pretty things. I'm still getting the hang of it, but thanks to penny_lane_42 , it's become much easier.
I guess this post is just to say I'm alive. And that I'm reading. And hi! Because I feel like it's been way too long since I did any of those things. :)
