i’m lacking motivation and it’s killing me.

i feel so inspired to do something like finish writing one of the many stories i have started or write some more poems. but i cant think straight. my head is throbbing and i just feel lost. i should start reading “Of Mice and Men” for school but i’m just not in the mood. i just watched a program on einstein and tesla and i want to build one of these many ideas that i have but i cant separate them from each other. i have no one to talk to on AIM and my ex (the one person who saved me from depression, helped me find my faith, and who i still love) is taking a shower so i cant talk or text her now. my mom, her boyfriend and his son are in the front room watching tv but i dont feel like being around them. i want to be alone right now but i’m so lonely. i’m sure this is confusing you who are reading this because it’s confusing me. i just need someone to talk to and find motivation from. if anyone has anything they would like to talk about or any stories/experiences that they want to discuss, please reply. if not, thank you for at least reading this.

I hope I am too late!
I know how you feel (side from the reference to earthquake machines and Einstein), especially finishing stories and writing poems (I got lucky tonight), and reading something that I am committed to reading.

haha i’m writing a letter to my ex right now to try and explain things that i did wrong. it sounds pretty good. i think i’ll give it to her after we go to the movies to see twilight (it was her idea for us to go to the movies so who knows :D ) i’ll probably start on my stories after i finish this letter.

I love writing letters! I always imagine myself as some early american revolutionary or one of Benjamin Franklin’s journalists (is revolutionary a noun, and did Franklin actually employ anyone in that manner?)
I hope that goes well- people generally respond better (emotionally, because goodness forbid they actually WRITE a response) to letters.

yeah i think it can be a noun and franklin probably hired people. yeah i think the letter always works good because you don’t have the pressure of a confrontation to deal with (although i prefer that because i’m able to see the body language, which never lies)

Yeah, I prefer person to person interaction above all. I fidget sitting on the fine line between hating the internet and accepting it as a decent medium.

haha i know what you mean. then there is the over-the-phone method. such as right now, me and my ex are talking on the phone. it’s really cool but slightly strange. lol

Oh yes! The under-the-foam method- the awkward schizophrenia box- the bitter hopefully unsilenced tea… I am not good at talking at length to anyone short of a “random” friend (one who acts or prides themselves in being random- few intense versions of these) or one that I especially connect with.

yeah. caller id helps so much with whether i answer or not. i remember one day i didn’t feel like going to school and my mom let me stay home. the phone rang and i answered it. it was the school calling for my mom to tell her that i was absent. i switched to an arabic accent and said that they had the wrong number and hung up. then i got my mom to answer it when it rang the next time. lol

Were I feeling more forgiving for help.com’s sudden sludging speed, I would ask- sounds similar to the animal free zip line test that went “hayline” and ended in two fractured wrists. hmhmhm

let’s just leave it at i would make a good lawyer because i live for loop holes and when a 7 year old (my age at the time) connects the fact that chickens glide more so than fly and there were glider jets used in WW2, he realizes that chickens could potentially fly if they had the height. let’s just say i was told to stop tossing chickens of the roof, so i built a catapult and argued that i wasn’t tossing them, i was “launching” them. lol
