I think I know what my problem is.
The thing about artists is we want things to come out as perfect and utterly life changing as we envision them in our minds and hearts. It rarely does, and that makes us brood and struggle with infuriating frustration.
As I shared the other day, I have finally been inspired to start writing again, and will use this dear old format as my starting point. I toss ideas around in my noggin all day as I work, commute, and go about the chores of the everyday. I barely know where to start once I get the time.
Tonight I sat down to write.
Nothing.
Instead I spent about four hours reading through old posts. I now feel rather melancholy. I feel like I will never write like that again.
But why wouldn't I? I just need a little bit of practice. Loosen up the writing muscles. Maybe the next stuff will be the best yet.
I just need to "fart and relax", as my BFF says.
I turned 48 earlier this month. Can you believe that? And remember Incrediboy, the precious toddler from my earlier posts? He's 13 now.
Time's a-wasting.
Be back tomorrow (or as it were, later today), with some kind of post. Even if it sucks, I will be writing. :)

The problem I have with that, at my age, I can't really trust it to be a fart.
Yes, writing is a use it or lose it kind of thing. I've really let my skills rust over the years. I hope we can both bring it back.
