The Vent? The Rant? Not Now...

"You must stay drunk on writing so reality cannot destroy you "
~Ray Bradbury


Wow!  Has it really been THAT long since I have written on here?  It is hard to believe that something I so passionately and frequently used at one point in my life has now become something so foreign.  Thanks to my friend Shay (who posted the quote for this entry on my Facebook wall), my drive to write on here today must be somehow related to a fear of reality destroying me...figuratively more-so than literally.  I tend to perseverate on things when I am stressed or worried...I am consumed to the point of not being able to sleep.  Sometimes writing helps.  This morning I awoke with a NEED to write about the particular stress-invoker of the last week.  Unfortunately, I did not have the time to "write it out" because I had to leave for work.  Fortunately, being at school today was delightful and distracted me.  Now, I am much calmer and not feeling the passion for composing the crazed social commentary I was about to unleash.  So, for now, I am not going to attempt it.  It will not live up to what I had hoped so I am not going to attempt it.
