The Thoughts of My Time

Blogger was down for a few hours today... go figure.

As I write this I'm waiting for a batch of chocolate chip cookies to bake. I rarely bake cookies myself, but tonight I felt compelled to get my ass away from my PC (and Baldur's Gate II, actually), and do something. I love cookies. Making them isn't always easy (mine cameout slightly greasy tonight), and the end result isn't just enjoyable, but... sharable. I'm looking forward to handing them out at work tomorrow. It sounds corny, but I love sharing.

I've finally admitted to myself that I'm not who I want to be. I'm an asshole. At heart I'm still the loving, caring person I try to make myself out to be, but lately I've been letting jealousy and anger take control of me. Those of you who are reading this are probably thinking that I'm nuts. Go ahead. Only now am I realizing my mistakes of the past three months. And oddly enough, I'm realizing them as I become more secluded from my old friends. Scary.

I've begun work on a new short story. I don't have a title for it yet, and I'm not even ready to fully share the story ideas yet. That's just the key - "ideas." I do know that I intend for this story to become a series - that is; short, three to five page stories that all fit together as a cohesive whole, yet don't necessarily have to maintain tight continuity between one another. I hope to experiment with many story ideas by using this series. I'll eventually post a preview of the first story within the coming months...

Well, I have to bake 6 more batchs of cookies at 12 minutes each, putting me well past my bedtime of 11:00pm tonight. It'll be a long, interesting Sunday.
