The perfect retreat to escape from Writer's Block.

I usually write things on the wall. But it's the same basic idea. XD I daydream an awful lot, though. You know that saying (type thing...) "the only thing I learned in high school is how to sleep with my eyes open?" I wasn't actually sleeping with my eyes open, but I got to the point where I literally had to hang on to the legs of the desk to keep myself from daydreaming. See, when my mind started to wander, I'd go to rest my head on the desk, which I couldn't do if I was hanging onto the legs, and then I'd say "wait a second. You're not supposed to be daydreaming. FOCUS!"

All my teachers hated me regardless. Jerkbites...I actually /tried/ to pay attention. They could have tried to be less boring. -_-

I did manage to pay attention when the guy I liked was in the same class as I was. See, I'm capable of love. But he died three years ago; so I'm right back where I was--heartless. :/

Lately, I've been falling asleep with CSI: Miami still on, so Mae seems to think that these intricate dreams and such that I have are actually someone elses finely crafted script, and I'm just absorbing it while I'm asleep. XD

I have been getting a lot of inspiration from dreams lately, dreams and when I am only half awake... I have been scaring myself into inspiration if you will...

Like last night, I was hanging out the washing, and scared myself into a zombie story. Last night I had a dream that is encouraging a haunted house story... But the really funny thing is that I don't usually write those sorts of stories... Usually sci-fi and fantasy, but way to go with the rush of supernatural and horror!

Zombies rock. :D THEY COULD BE FAIRY ZOMBIES! Or zombie fairies.

Yeah, okay, sci-fi and fantasy don't work well.
