Forever and a Day

It's been forever and a day!

School has begun and I'm drowning as usual under a barrage of parental disapproval, complex homework, sorority events and planning, and my own severe senioritis. Yes, a pretty lethal cocktail. Strangely, the one constant is songwriting. I can't go more than two days without having a little ditty burst into my head and unto paper. I have thirteen complete songs, and eight or nine drabbles. I don't know what to do with them so I'm getting ready to enter some of them into lyric competitions and see what happens. At best, I'll get noticed by someone or win. At worst, I'll get shut down to keep trying.

It's funny how her death sparked all of this. Before her, I wrote maybe a song a year. After her...all of this. All of it. And I finally managed to write a tribute. It doesn't do her any justice and it was more for me than for anyone else but I finally managed it. Maybe in a few weeks I"ll be able to write another!

I hope so.

Meh. Time for work. It's not that I hate my job, it's that I hate working. But work I must to pay back all the people I owe! Yaaaay.

Not.

Deuces!
