i hate to leave this place and think that it is all done. as long as our words are still here, we still exist, right?
however my life is ridiculously busy. and i feel the need for a new template, and the other girls are not participating much anymore, so… possibly my own brand new blog? i cringe at the thought of making a new template but you know that i could never use a stock one without modding it to scream emmie. also i suppose i would need a new domain name and i wouldn’t know where to begin to come up with one, nevermind a blog title. and publicizing a new blog sucks up so much time!!! that i don’t have anymore at all… these things make me so very very sad.
what makes me happy is that i have new friends. they are younger than me but still cool enough for me to like anyway. some of them are gay and i love that!! they like beer and barbecue (me too).
several friends are trying to convince me to write a book of some sort. i am still mulling over the idea of a collection of our works from here, post secret style (god i love that site!!). if i could convince ellie to do some illustrations for me it would be the bizzomb!! just like the old days.
one friend listened to me telling her the storyline of a short i wrote in high school. she then proceeded to give me ideas on how to expand that character into an entire novel. and it’s really not a half-bad idea…
do i have time? no. yes. i don’t know really. i know that i bbq a lot and i have gotten pretty good at a few songs on guitar hero 2 (easy only please and no doubles, sheesh!). my new friends text me a lot and that is new to me too. they taught me how to use T9 which had in the past always irritated the hell out of me…
i really really really want to write a book. i really want to blog. i also really want to make this blog into a book. what i do not want is a binding contract in case the well dries up. just a nice little nest egg to make up for my lack of 401k contributions for the past 10 years and some money for a new car would be cool. and of course some degree of notoriety which i did particularly enjoy here for a while…
