I have confidence~

What will this day be like? I wonder.
What will my future be? I wonder.
It could be so exciting to be out in the world, to be free
My heart should be wildly rejoicing
Oh, what's the matter with me?

I've always longed for adventure
To do the things I've never dared
And here I'm facing adventure
Then why am I so scared

A move across the country
What's so fearsome about that?

Oh, I must stop these doubts, all these worries
If I don't I just know I'll turn back
I must dream of the things I am seeking
I am seeking the courage I lack

The courage to live with self-reliance
Face my mistakes without defiance
Show them I'm worthy
And while I show them
I'll show me

So, let life bring on all its problems
I'll do better than my best
I have confidence they'll put me to the test
But I'll make them see I have confidence in me

Somehow I will impress them
I will be true and kind
And all those people (Heaven bless them!)
They will look up to me

And mind me with each step I am more certain
Everything will turn out fine
I have confidence the world can all be mine
They'll have to agree I have confidence in me

I have confidence in sunshine
I have confidence in rain
I have confidence that spring will come again
Besides which you see I have confidence in me

Strength doesn't lie in numbers
Strength doesn't lie in wealth
Strength lies in nights of peaceful slumbers
When you wake up -- Wake Up!

It tells me all I trust I lead my heart to
All I trust becomes my own
I have confidence in confidence alone
Besides which you see I have confidence in me~!

So yeah. I try not to tweak lyrics and post whole songs on here but I think I just need to keep singing this for a while. I mean, those were simple changes and it just fits so well, I couldn't help it. When I'm feeling good, this is how I feel inside. And if I wasn't living with chronic bitch-face you might be able to tell that more often.

But I want to do something today. Don't know what. I haven't been to sleep and I'm concerned that I'm not tired yet, but that's neither here nor there. I'll probably just work for most of the day (as long as I'm awake). I meant to sleep. I really did. But then I didn't. Still not sure how that happened.

Just kinda wanted to spring that on you guys and have it here so I can go back to it... An with that out of the way, I'm going to go try to do something productive. Wish me luck~

Technology and macaroni salad

Before I say anything, I'd like to point out that in spite of the ranting nature of the following post, I do in fact love technology to the point where I'm more likely to jump to write an idea simply because it's Sci-Fi. I love to speculate (which probably explains why I'm a 'speculative fiction' writer) on future things and advancements. That said:

OMG, my computer! It decided to have a glitch-fit yesterday and eat everything I did. So everything I wrote for the last word war: gone. So, so lucky I backed everything up, like, right before it exploded. I still lost all of my bookmarks, though and any programs I installed (which means LivCut, LevelOffice, GIMP, yWriter, my Mirro Player and everything else is gone). I even lost my kick-ass Starfighter background. :( It's basically back to factory default settings now. BUT.

It's fine, now, though. Happy and healthy. My roommate fixed it (and I *anatomically-correct heart* her for it) She gets a virtual kitty: =^.^=

So right now, as I'm typing, I'm sitting at my kitchen table with yarn, my computer, a few small pastries and a dish of macaroni salad hoping to get some semblance of caught up. (I'm hoping to get caught up; the macaroni salad is just hoping to get eaten.)

Tomorrow is Tuesday, though and we've decided to make Tuesday our day to go out and do things so that should make me feel a little better. I can swing by the coffee shop and maybe it'll unstick my brain a little. It's usually good for that.

I love my computer (it's a little red and black Toshiba and it's cute ^^) but sometimes it just frustrates me. I have a new kick-ass wallpaper this time, though (since for some reason, I can't find my Starfighter one) and it actually goes with this month's story theme. In other words, it's Death. I think I'll change it out at the start of the month so the image goes with the story. It might keep me a little more on track.

I'm just rambling now. But really this is the sort of nonsense up with which I will not put! <-The sad thing is, this is actually grammatically correct. You really shouldn't end a sentence with a preposition. Then again I do it all the time. Anyway...

I'm gonna scramble back to work now and see if I can't get caught up. Wish me luck and sugar, Ink-Slingers and as always, Don't Forget To Be Awesome. ^^

Ink-Slingers and Nerdfighters

Hello, all. Currently, I'm in planning stages on several different projects but the one I am possibly most exited about is the little WriMo community I've only recently become a part of.

Now, I and a few others stand at the front of the 'Pro-WriMo'/Pro-Creativity movement and since it's little known right now, I decided it might be a good idea to build a little site (because I totally love building sites for some strange reason) for us.

It should be up in a couple of days (depending on how my writing's going) so be on the lookout for that. It has a lot of information on us and on projects I'd like to get started. So, yeah...

Until the next time, guys. DFTBA
