Mudo. For the past couple of days I’ve been just that. Silent. Unable. Unwilling perhaps. To say much of anything at all. Every time I’ve tried to sit down and think about writing something cohesive, or at the very least putting a few words together that made any kind of sense at all -“good enough” to share with Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, this website, and by extension with you – I’ve just come up with …nothing.
Not a damn thing at all.
Why? I haven’t the slightest clue. But that’s just where I’m at right now.
I guess you could say I’m shooting blanks. I’m 33 years old, going on 34, and I’m shooting blanks!

Es todo bueno…its all good. Gives your brain a rest.
Thanks, Erik! Always appreciate your awesome support 🙂
don’t feel bad. you’re just processing.
at least you can articulate that you just need a moment. what happens to me is my husband asks me something and i stand there opening and closing my mouth but nothing comes out. he says i look like a dying fish.
LOL, Beth! That made me feel better. And yeah sometimes the words just don’t come out 🙂
I hear you, Juan. I struggle with writer’s block constantly. I think it’s why I run and dance. I need some kind of outlet. Your words will come back. At least you’re articulating how you’re feeling.
You know, Julie, I think that may be what my body is telling me… that I need more exercise in my life. I know it and probably need to do something already. Thanks for the reminder.
Sometimes you need to decompress and let it pass.
Its alot to process…The thout of our family aand friends in danger is on the mind constantly these days.
The boy that was allowed to shoot himself at NSSH…Then this week another boy calls in a bomb threat to the school…My 17yr old goes there. The dist. put All the schools on Wallisville on lock down the month before.
An armed gunman was fleeing from Walmart and seen near Havard an the middle school…
