Seven Days (Two Years)

Oh man, I haven’t written anything in 7 days. That might be the longest stretch in at least six months.

It just hasn’t been coming out, and I didn’t want to force it. I used to just write every day, no matter how good it was. Now, I overthink it. I’ll get 3 or 4 paragraphs into a post about nothing and just jump ship. I think, “If I don’t have anything to say, why say anything?”

I’m just not in one of those phases where I literally cannot stop writing. I’m in one that I can barely start. I’ll go back into a creative phase eventually. I just have to ride this lull out. I don’t like it, but I know it’s not permanent.

I did want to stop and acknowledge that today marks 2 years since this blog got started. I was reminded by Facebook memories of the events that got me back into writing in the summer of 2021.

Also, my background check finally cleared for the job that hired me. I was really on edge about that for a good two weeks. So next week, I will be selling cell phones in Target stores part-time. Life is so funny.

While I’ve got pretty much nothing to say, I will link the times when i did, you might find something interesting in there:
