Dear Diary

I haven't written in a diary in years, and a blog can be sort of like a diary, but not really seeing as it's on the internet for the entire world to read. Anyway, it's like a diary in the sense that you might post particular moments in your life, share stories, write random thoughts, maybe rant, (doodle?) and anything else that comes to mind (literally).

I really enjoy diaries. I used to have one, and sleep with it underneath my pillow. The only thing I ever wrote in it were the names of boys that I thought were cute...weird. I was always a journal type of girl. I'd buy journals 2, or 3 at a time because I loved the idea of having journals filled with randomness, poetry and stories.

here is a random thought:

I love the cold rain, and how it fills up the streets on my block so quickly. The rain truly transforms my neighborhood into a solstice of imagery for me. I still do imagine things...I might not be a child, however I still have images of rain creatures, and tree monsters...

I'm not sure how I can benefit from that, but it makes things seem more innocent in my world.

On a different note, don't you hate having a boss? It sucks, and I'm tired of it. I do however get to sit in my office and write poetry that I immaturely post on myspace. Actually yes, I hate myspace but also like it very much. It's so user-friendly, and it's a nice way of communication.

Anway, yes having a boss sucks. Let me try something new. I have A LOT of experience in various things. I worked at a museum for 5 years, organized shows for about 5 years, wrote for different magazines, journals and newspapers, and well, my current job as a "marketing director" has given me a lot of experience. It's about time I do something for myself and maybe concentrate on the paper full time.

I hope I can keep writing. For the past couple of weeks I have been inspired to write - mainly poetry but also a short story that I posted here on my blog. I attribute it all to the rain, as well as to a new coffee shop down town that has a good "vibe".

Good night diary...I will continue tomorrow.
