I feel like I have a story to tell. And I don't know if its a story that will interest anybody but me, but I still feel that nagging feeling, like there's something inside that needs to come out. I just haven't quite gotten there yet.

I asked a writer friend of mine (a real writer; a real, published author) how to sort of get from point a to point b and she said to just write something, try and get the creative juices flowing. So here we are.

Why do so many companies/organizations/whatever that have houses for sale feel the need to watermark the shit out of every picture with "this house is for sale not for rent"?! Is it really that big of an issue that they will have a million people calling them asking if a house that is clearly marked "for sale" is for rent?! Are we so stupid (or entitled, come to think of it) as a public that we believe it isn't what the listing says it is? Or do we think we're the one person who the rules don't apply to?! But wait. I think I know the answer to that question.
Moving right along, and again about house listings-why does it seem that kitchens are getting smaller and smaller? What happened to the kitchen being the nucleus of the home? The center? The great meeting/gathering place? Now it seems like the kitchen is an afterthought. Like, "oh shit, we designed this house and we forgot... something... whatthehellisit?!"

Next...
Have you ever had an experience where you have been taught to be grateful for something but not happy about it? I have been going through that recently and its... something, I'll tell you what. I still don't think I have reconciled it completely. And I'm really not sure that I will. I think the only real reconciliation for it is going to be changing it.

I don't know what else I have. Hopefully this jump-started my creative juices enough that I will be able to successfully write the other thing I want to, even if nobody but me is interested in reading it.
