About As Much Fun As Eating Paste

23 Apr

Is it a bad thing when your own blog bores you?

For the longest time I’ve been dealing with insomnia, unable to sleep when I wanted to. And now? Now I’m just falling asleep anywhere, anytime.

I sit here at the computer, wanting to write a brilliant post either about a book I’ve read or a movie watched and…

snore

Yeah, fall asleep in mid-type. Of course I snap awake in a few seconds, but the witty post? Gone. All gone.

I really want to write, but trying to be creative and interesting is just too hard. It’s a lot easier to flick paper wads at my monitor.

I’ve been looking over my medications and it may be that one of them is adding to this sleepy feeling. I’ll ask the doctor about it next month. Have to get a few blood tests done and get my hearing checked. Richard tells me I’m turning up the sound on the TV too loud lately. I don’t want to go deaf, but if one of the senses has to go, that’s better than my sight.

Btw – excellent movie for y’all to go see is Fracture with Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling. Once again Hopkins prooves that if he weren’t acting, well, you’d hate to meet him in a dark alley. I don’t like Ryan Gosling, but he does put in a good performance opposite Mr. Hopkins and is able to hold his own on the screen. The affectations of his character (I hope they were the character and not Gosling) did drive me up the wall. Rubbing his nose, twitching, scratching at his cheeks, forehead and crew cut. He reminded me of someone jonesing for a fix.

    Oh wait. Yes, I have. I’m sorry, but I just don’t have it in me right now to type it all out again. Besides, it was just ramblings anyway. You didn’t want to hear me go on and on about this, right?

    I’d like to see Fracture myself – and you’re right (so is Stephanie) – Anthony Hopkins wouldn’t be the kind of guy you’d like to meet in a dark alley if he really decided to turn to a life of crime.

    As to wanting to write and not being able to do so – have you tried music? I’ve come up with a couple as yet to be written down stories that were inspired by a couple songs – even though the songs really had little or nothing to do with what the stories became.

  4. Anthony Hopkins does intelligent villains really well, the sort that creep you out more because they know what they’re doing than because they’re some brainless thug on a rampage.
