New Blog.

This is my new blog about the lighter side of life.

I think my brain works in this mysterious way where it thinks in writing. I write because to me, it is therapeutic and natural. I have these little stories that fly through my head as if I am narrating my auto-biography in a television series.

To me, writing is a way of expressing myself when there is no one else to listen...or who cares. I actually had a dream last night I was working and we were all hanging out and I overheard the others saying how annoying I was because I wouldn't shut up. I am quite positive there are people who may think this about me, but at the same time, if you don't care, then don't listen.

Sometimes when I call my friends on the phone and they don't answer, I wonder if it is because they look at the phone and think "oh man, this could be a while" and decide they don't really have the time to listen to me at that time. I have no problem with this and I would rather them put me off until the moment is right rather than half-listening in an attempt to amuse me by saying "uh-huh" and "sure" hoping that I don't catch on to their tone of indifference and lack of interest.

So I write. No one needs to listen. Those who make the choice to read, read and they can start and stop whenever they would like...and that is the beauty of written words and the ability to express oneself countless times over again and always at the right moment.

My other blog is about my daily thoughts on life and life lessons. This blog is more about the things that make me laugh or make me think "wow, life is great and most of the time, a blast!"

For instance, today I was wondering why Redbull tastes terrible, but I continue to drink it. I wonder if it really does "improve performance...increase concentration and improve reaction speed..and stimulate the metabolism" or is it mental and when I drink it, I think I should feel focused? I also drink sugarfree, which sounds like an oxymoron (seriously, what is in this stuff). Before I would only drink it with vodka, but now it accompanies my lunch and satisfies my thirst between my four cups of hot green tea and morning diet lemon Snapple. Makes you think...

And that my friend, is the lighter side of life and those are the things that whisk through my head in between my life philosophies and planning my life/daily routines... oh, and work :)
