anticlimactisim

so i just looked at my blog and it was anticlimactic. how these people get their sites to look so sweet is beyond me. i guess that's the benefit of having a mac. i am here at work covering the phones while the employees are in a staff meeting. i am what they call a "temporary employee". i get to do mindless work all day long for a small wage- but hey- i'm grateful. atleast i have somewhere to go everyday- right?

i recently saw a pbs special on anne lamott. it was pretty inspiring. she is a very talented writer. maybe that's what this blog could be for me- a creative outlet to write. maybe it will take no direction at all. i don't even undertand how this works. but the same is true of many useful things that i benefit from- so why should this be any different?

lamott encourages wannabe writers to just keep writting and go with the process. i've never thought of myself as a writer; but i do enjoy it, and think i have some propensity for it- so why not try? what do i have to loose? nothing really! i know that i benefit from the creative process- so i might as well engage in it, even if the only one that enjoys it is me.
