I decided to revamp my blog a little. What do you think? Do you find that my words have a whole new tone with the calming green in the background? How 'bout the little flowers? Does seeing them make your soul take wing?
Okay, okay, I admit it. I still can't think of anything to write about. The creative center of my brain is a dark, vacant, blood-spattered place cordoned off with "Police Line Do Not Cross" tape. I think I have become intimidated by all of those women who are out there writing blogs that are better-written and more well-read than mine. I'm an amateur who knows nothing about anything, has a random, unsponsored blog, and who has three readers (whom I love dearly, of course). There are bigger and better powerhouses out there. In fact, thousands of FemBloggers are going to take NYC by storm in a couple of weeks when they all arrive to attend a conference just for women bloggers! And they have business cards for their blogs and everything! How will I ever get my famous, best-selling novel published when these hordes of women are out there, taking their writing seriously and getting themselves noticed?
It's enough to make one want to shut down, huddle down on the couch and eat a lot of cookies. Not that I don't eat a lot of cookies anyway, mind you. It's just now I feel the need to eat more.
Perhaps it would help if I actually started writing the famous, best-selling novel. Instead of hoping that it will write itself...?

Love the new theme thing. Very calming and much easier on the eyes.
I can't quite believe I'm going to the NYC conference. I keep waiting for someone to say Stop! Impostor!!
But, the thing is, I think just about everyone feels the same way. Except the mega bitches with 453628781947485798 readers.
I think starting my novel would be way less intimidating though.
I think you should write a novel about the adventures of Party X.
Love the new design. And don't fool yourself - the safety camp stuff was hysterical! Love reading your blog.
