Finally

Yea I know, everyone is glad it's finally Friday.  That very much includes me this time around.   Most of the time I don't really care but, this week has been hard.  Got some sort of bug that's going around and I feel like crap.  It will be nice to have a long weekend where I don't have to worry about coughing when I talk to people on the phone. And then I get to sleep, which is all I have really wanted to do anyway. 
I could go on about my week at work but I think I will pass on that, it's over I'm all for letting it go now.  I still have had a chance to think about people and the way they act in any given situation.   And I really wish I knew more about some of the people I interact with. Mainly at work. Can never tell I call someone if they are going to be friendly, or if they are going to try to bite my head off.  Hazard of the job though, I guess.

Maybe I just wonder about the stories that each person's life tells. I don't know hardly any of those stories but I would like to. Maybe the person I talked to was having a bad day, and another person was in a good mood because it's a Friday before a long weekend.  I'd love to be able to take a look at people's lives to understand better. 

Another of the things I like is writing. Fiction and poetry. It has been a long time since I wrote anything I felt was any good, but maybe I will do some of that here on occasion and see how it goes. Even if it's not any good, it's the act of writing that I love, thinking and making that connection between the hands and the brain and using my imagination. What could be better? It's easy and it's free(mostly) and it's a great way to pass the time. It's an added plus that sometimes I learn more about myself along the way.

 So if I were to write tonight what would I write about? Well, I like to think about how other writers got their ideas to spin such interesting stories. That and taking apart the pieces to see how they construct them as well.  I think my main problem is that I come up with what sounds like an interesting idea for a story and I start it and then I end up not knowing where to go with it.  And I worry if I have put in enough details to draw and keep the reader's interest in my characters. Something I want to work on.. and I've got a few good days off coming up now so I will have the chance to do that.
