I tried. I really did.

Chapter the Seventy-Sixth: In Which Ana Tries to Write Something A Little More Lighthearted. Again.Uh, that's just a working title, understand. When I finish this, I may realize it's actually something else entirely. *** I don't have to work tomorrow. Yaay. *** (Are we having fun yet? Before you wonder if this is the sort of thing I consider action-packed journalling fun, I want you to know that I really am trying here. I just deleted an entire paragraph about how I'm working more or less 24/7 every day for the rest of the week. I do it because I care. If I can't be humorous, at least I won't be boring.) *** You know, they say the best way to beat writer's block is just to start writing. It never works that way for me, though. If I start out just babbling about whatever comes into my head, I never get beyond that. I'll just spend hours typing all the crappy random thoughts pulled out of my ass. But wait! Let's examine that paragraph for a minute. Thoughts go into my head....and then I pull them out of my ass. Is that funny? Did that mental picture make you smile, even a little bit? Try imagining the faces I make. Is it funny now? Nah, I didn't really think so, either. *** This whole line of asterisks thing I'm into lately. It's kinda Vonnegut of me. *** So it goes. ***
