I miss writing. Badly. Ever since coming to the day shift, I don't seem to have it in me anymore. Working evenings, I'd come home, have a couple drinks, put on some music, and review the latest album I listened to that night during my shift, or give a play-by-play of a humorous or ridiculous work-related incident.
Now... nothing. I look up quirky pics and art just to have something to post. Or a YouTube vid.
It's just incredibly frustrating to see that I've lost something I might have had going for me. I'm not saying it would have gotten me anywhere, but it was more than I have now. People praised my way with words.
Praised, past tense. Because I can't find it anymore.
Alright, enough complaining. That's not the way to go. Time to give it another go.
My son has a couple of those fleece throw blankets (the ones that anyone over 4 ft tall has to curl into the fetal position to be completely covered by). One is a Spongebob blanket that he likes to spread out completely flat. Well, the other day, apparently this 4ft, one-dimensional pineapple-dwelling sponge needed... a mint.
And I'm thinking "Seriously, right on the uvula? Ouch." At least the dude lives under the sea. In a pineapple.
Quite liking the new show Gotham. It's interesting to see Jada Pinkett Smith as a (hot) bad chick, and funnyman Donal Logue in a more dramatic setting. I seriously can't wait to see more of Ed Nygma, and I'm liking how they're doing Selina Kyle. Penguin is ok, and Poison Ivy is just kinda hinted on.
Also, I've been binge-watching Nurse Jackie. It seems to be a cross between ER and House, but it's a Showtime show, so it's much less... kid friendly. But, sooo funny in moments, yet heartbreaking in others. And (not that I was an avid fan, I haven't even finished the film series) it's intriguing to see the calm vampire head of household Carlisle Cullen from the Twilight series (Peter Facinelli) as the hyper, emotional, immature frat-boy Attending Doctor Fitch "Coop" Cooper. (Also, I keep wanting to call the actor Peter Cullen, which is wrong. He's no Optimus.) But I'm looking forward to when Adam Ferrara joins the cast. In season 5... Just a little over a season away from where I am. Though, should prolly take my time, 'cause the show doesn't start its last season - season 7 - til April '15.
But, I do recommend the show. I'm not saying it'll be for you, but give it a try. Really.
Alright, that's all I have for now.
