Blast from the past: This is the one and only entry from a blog I started close to two-and-a-half years ago. I'm getting rid of that blog, but, being the pack-rat that I am, I can't stand to throw anything out without some sort of record of it.
I don't think there's any lesson to learn from this other than the more things change the more they stay the same, I guess.
Real update to follow. I know...promises, promises.

So much to say, so much to say...
I feel frozen.
Rooted to my IKEA chair while waves of self-consciousness wash over me. I think eventually I'll get over my post-shyness (or maybe just get bored with it) and type out everything I said I would record for the past ten years or so. In the meantime, it feels like so much indulgent pressure to write something out that someone else might actually read. Or maybe not. Perhaps this blog will float through the flotsam and jetsam of cyber-space like so much other debris.
I mean, who really reads this?
Aside from me and anyone else I feel bold enough to tell about this journal's existence. That last sentence was a grammatical nightmare, I know.
Perhaps there is a sense of pseudo-power in this pseudo-anonymity. Is this post already too neurotic to read past the first few sentences anyway? I digress, I digress...
Enough.
I'm already tired of myself.
About Me

- Desha
- Today I watched my cat give herself a bath in my bathroom sink and when she noticed me watching her, she fell off the counter, but then continued to wash herself on the floor. Yesterday in the park, I saw a two-year-old boy fall and scrape his hands. He picked himself up, examined his palms, kissed them each to make them better, and then ran off to catch up with his mom. I love self-sufficient creatures.

Update. Write. Stop being an observer in your own life. Jane.
Kisses!
When you get out of your head and let your heart words flow, I LOVE IT! But when you just write from your head I like it...and learn new words! :0)
