I have a couple of go-to strategies when it comes to coming up with an idea for my daily post: I either write about the most memorable thing that happened to me recently or I try to connect some disparate events in my present and past to make a greater point. Days like today, when it's already 10:30 and I don't have an idea, I wish there were a couple of other tools in my inspiration box.
Oh golly, what to write about? My optimism and doubts about the facebook group I started for our school literary magazine? Our visit to the mushy snow and muddy dog park? My nephew's School of Rock show? (His guitar playing was awesome and he sang lead on Just Like Heaven!) The inevitable frustration of the ubiquitous traffic congestion in our oh-so-populated-and-getting-more-crowded-all-the-time area? The death of Cesar Millan's beloved pitbull Daddy? The absurdity of cake challenges on the food network?
Hmmm. All promising, but none are quite ripe today.
I'm sad to hear about Daddy. When did that happen? Also sorry to miss Victor Riley singing Just Like Heaven -- damn Atlanta! Annabelle learned to jump yesterday.
