beginning again

I can't believe its March already. I think this is the first time this year I've sat down with my computer and wrote something other than an email. My writing resolution bit the dust weeks ago. I'm currently taking an online writing class. It's a month long workshop, and already I feel out of my element. There are so many things I want to write and the one thing that is keeping me from it, is me.

So in a effort to be accountable, I've set up this new blog. I've had blogs in the past, but never really kept up with it. I won't even link to them here. If you know me, you'll know those blogs. But they are in the past.

I have a lot of ideas currently marinating in the mind. This is the part of writing I enjoy. Building my world, creating characters, discovering who these people are. Unfortunately, it is also the part of writing where I tend to get lost. And then I just kinda wander around in my world, but never actually getting to the story part of it. I'd like to conquer this issue this year. And I'm hoping this blog will get me past that blockade.

Last weekend I discovered a new show, "Jericho". I remember when it first premiered, and wanted to watch it, but for whatever reason, never got into it. Well Saturday, I saw it was on cable On Demand. All the missed episodes...woo hoo! I spent the next 9 hours watching it, as I got sucked in in a big way! I loved the premise and the fact that not everyone is as they seem. Lots of twists with the main characters.

I have also been struggling with my fitness regimen. I have it all planned out, but the execution of said plan is where I falter. Can you see the recurring theme here?? In any case, the pounds are going, though not at the pace I'd like. The BF percentage is going down, and the inches are melting away again, so I'll take the downward trend vs. no progress at all. Still the plan is to step up my game, not only in my workouts, but my writing workouts as well.
