My Train of Thought Needs Some Fuel

ramblings Yes, I am aware that it has been almost one month since I brought my blog back, and I haven't written anything. I've realized that writing just doesn't come naturally to me anymore, and something needs to be done about that. I need to just start writing every day about whatever comes to mind just to get in the habit again, so for a while my entries will probably be boring and weird. My stream of consciousness is never very coherent; I am without a doubt a rambler. Anyone that has ever spoken with me on the phone knows that fact all too well. To give you an idea of what I mean, here's a quote from a year old blog entry where I was trying to explain what it's like to be in my head.
Using the 'train of thought' analogy, it goes a little something like this: train A leaves station 12 at 4:21 p.m. heading South for station 97 at 45 mph; train B leaves station 33.333333 at 23:16 heading North for station Q at 1,000,000,000,000 mph, and train Your Mom's a Whore leaves station 666 at no real time at all heading West with a broken compass toward station 94.3 JAMZ going slower than a stoner figuring out this math problem. Somewhere in the middle they all crash. Still on board? Okay then.
Right now, this is just a declaration of my intentions. Will I actually start writing again? I guess we'll find out tomorrow.
blogging,

Sounds like you're on the right track (yes, pun). Keep at it 'cause I need reads! And that in itself is a good enough reason ;-P
Believe it or not, even writing that little bit last night was hard. I have no problem writing emails and stuff, but for some reason, blog entries just don't come easy. I really don't get it. I'm starting to wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that it's a public audience, and for so long now I have been a much more private person than I was before. *shrug*
It would be more work, but maybe write stuff in an actual journal, not worrying about who's going to read it and then if there's something you think is shareworthy - post it?
With everything that's going on right now, I can guarantee everything I would write in a real journal would be far too personal to share. :\
Well I, for one, will read whatever is posted.
I hope you start blogging alot. You are awesome with words & I love your thinking on things.
Thank you! That actually means a lot to me. :)
