i Vulcan’t.

Posted on the 13 April 2016 by Rarasaur @rarasaur

I have a thousand post ideas and I just can't finish writing one.

I lost my wrist bands, you see. It's been windy lately and the noise rattles the windows and distracts me. The house dog has to wear a cone right now so he needs some extra love. A friend came to visit. A friend can't come to visit. I'm hungry. I'm eating. I just ate.

Food makes me a little tired, which sounds like a symptom to me. I should search engine it.

10 minutes passed. Time keeps passing. It's so hard to balance.
Oh look, pictures of things balanced on people's heads.

I didn't reply to the comments of the last post, probably. Maybe I should do that before I post, but then there's those emails I haven't gotten to, and that's more important.

If I'm not responding to emails, writing blogs, answering phones- maybe I'm going through something. Those sound lie symptoms. Maybe I'm depressed.

I should check my vitals.

Why is a healthy person so concerned with health? It's probably because I'm a Virgo.

I should check the moon charts.

I need to write a post on this, and that, and the other. Things I learned from reading astrological charts, and things I learned from googling medicines, and things I learned from being married to an introvert, and being widowed, and being stringless now.

We could call them "Lessons from _________ " No, that's too wordy. We could call them, "Learnings of _________ " No, that's too label intensive. "4 Things About _________". "_________ Mantras".

I should ask someone, but I'm not really talking to anyone consistently. The world is a little big today, but it wasn't last week.

I'm not sure if I could reach anyone even if I did reach out.

That sounds like a symptom. I should search engine it, or write a blog about it. Add it to the list of a thousand blog ideas.

If I lined up all my ideas, and if ideas were all like fluffy clouds you could walk on, I could bounce my way over to all my friends.

Friends are reaching in even without cloud transport. Their arms are so very long to reach so far. Their hearts are so very loud to be heard all the way over here in the tiny corner of the world where I live.

Today I answered a phone call. Today I went out with a friend. Today I responded to Facebook comments in a relatively timely manner.

I had a day off and plenty of time to write something to completion, but I didn't. I only started things and jotted down ideas.

I'm so organized and such a creature of habit, that some days, I can do all the things.

And some days, I just vulcan't.

i vulcan’t.
