I figured out a story I've been working on in the car on the way to work this morning...now I can't remember which story I was going to use..wait, it was a horror story...I just got a flash..gah..ahh!....Hammer Horror-ah, Hammer Horror-ah...nope that didn't help.. Wow-wow-wow? No...I was listening to Kate Bush on the way in...I'm seeing the image..a cloud shrouds it...a woman..that is a ...zombie?? I don't like zombies and don't have any stories going with zombies in it...?? did I make up a whole new story? I don't think so. I could've sworn I had finally tied something up...man. Please brain...work for/with me.
Seriously!!??
This is why i never finish stories. I think of the solutions away from pen, paper or electronics...I need a recorder that starts recording when I say "dear diary" or whatever I decide to name my recorder.. Dick. Hey Dick (short for dictophone, of course)! A woman that seems like a zombie, but isn't because i don't have stories about zombies is in this vision in my mind and....and......Damn it. Okay, that didn't work. Damn it , Dick.
Okay, stories I'm working on:
Violet Ray -nope
Sacred Cow -nope
Who's beauty? -nope
Darla Shift -nope
..it is a horror story...maybe i had one running in my mind and it IS a new story...come on...dang it!
Drive-thru --god, I wish, I have had several epiphanies with this one all NOT within reach of some type of recording device...Dick, where are you?!
By proxy, she's got it! (working title) -I don't think so...it does seem that it could have a sinister tone.
Ugh, that's a lot of unfinished stories...and I know there are at least four more....The Energy by Music one-can't remember if there is a title or not, the "spectacular" idea of a mix of story/poetry that was supposed to aid my lack of story ending capabilities...I couldn't even finish that!
My passions are not obsessions.. This is why I can only eek out a small amount of an idea.. Well, and also, my laziness. Let's be real. It's my laziness. I think I can only run on the muse. The muse gives me something and I think it should give me everything. I'm not a hard worker. This is what happens when things come easy early in life.. I didn't have to work for anything really...I was just good at whatever I tried...or at least good enough...or at least as soon as I learned I wasn't that good, it wasn't as desirable and I didn't want it any more. How do I stop this? Or how do I begin again as a hard working person? Grow a vegetable garden?
This is why I named my blog Periodical Curiosity. My curiosity only lasts periodically and then it's off to the next thing. Or maybe circles around to a thing I liked before again...but there is no completion. ...her eyes are wide... oh that reminds me, my daughter is into making a surprise face..she opens her eyes really wide and makes a little baby "o" with her mouth...so funny and adorable...nope, that didn't help...
Well, that turn of mind, took me waaay off the mark. What is this horror story?!!
