Leading a Life of Quiet Desperation

Although technically, my desperation isn't quiet.
If you're near me at any point during the day, you'll hear me complaining about how boring and fickle my life is.
I haven't had any new articles to work on, my freebies have still been coming in the mail, and I do the same thing everyday.
I sit here, staring at the computer screen going "Huh, wonder what I should do today?"
I just visit the same sites over and over, hoping that maybe one of them will have posted something new.

It's not the kind of life I want to lead. I would much rather be working at KFC, getting some extra cash and plenty of access to their biscuits and mashed potatoes.
It wouldn't be a glamorous job, but it would get me out of the house, and don't I deserve that?

I'm turning into a basket case here. I wanted to write a book or short story, but I didn't know what to write about.
Two of my articles have been published. Woo!

My life is so mundane that they biggest decision I have to make is fried egg or raisin bran?
And I can't even make my mind up.

The most exciting thing I've done today? Make a new desktop.
I hope my life revs up soon. I don't know if I can take much more of this.
Now, to see if KFC is hiring...

Why didn't the second article have it's name on it?

I definitely have days like that - where I kind of wander around aimlessly and wish I had something different to do. I hope it gets better for you soon!

Oh that stinks Lee. =[
I always have stuff to do. Whether it's organizing CDs, shopping, planning, mixing CDs, tanning, painting your nails, drawing, painting, making jewelry.
Cooking?
IDK, think of something. =\

Ahhh I know what you mean about awful days! It's just horrible sometimes. And I feel as though my brain is just meeeltingggg. ahhhh.

Hehe, and thankiee for your opinion! I know, some outfits simply don't work with statement bracelets, so I don't wear it then. Otherwise.. I'm a pretty big sap about 'em. lol

I know this will sound cliche, and I hate when people say it to me, but you really should relish in the relaxation while you can before the chaos of school starts up and you'll be super stressed out again. Make this the time you focus on yourself and your health.

Do you start school again in the fall? Hopefully you can hang on until then.

Funny I'm feeling the same way as you when I get home from work. And I've got plenty to do around the house I'm just too bored to get up the energy to do anything!

So I play on Farm Town on Facebook instead :)

I think we all have moments like your having. Some of those moments last longer than others.

It is good you are thinking of ways to end the 'funk' (that's what I call it 'a funk').

Just remember it will end!

That sucks the article didn't have your name on it. Did it not have a byline?

Very cute new desktop background too!

Better day than me though, I'm sunburned and really really exhausted. Selling jewelry is hard work. I'll post about it later :P

Your new desktop is really cute! Girl, my life is so boring right now I don't even know what to post about. That's sad, isn't it!
