Success! Subway, and. . . toast

           The good news? The URL has been successfully changed to:

nicg-lifesinsanity

           Aces! Though I'm not sure if that effects you in anyway. But I apologize that it was so long in coming. :P

           I'm making grilled cheese for lunch. Grilled cheese is alright, I suppose. (*cough* Except when it's black!) It's a warm sandwich. Lots of people warm their sandwiches. Subway does. (the best of which is a Spicy Italian on flatbread with cheddar cheese, tomatoes, olives, mustard, and chipotle sauce, if you happen to like going to Subway that is).

           But I still don't get toast. Who wants crunchy bread? Just crunchy bread alone? Okay, perhaps a smear of butter. But butter doesn't have much flavor to begin with. The point escapes me.

Writing

           I apologize. Again. The new URL is still not available. I'll see if I can change it to something else. This time we'll try:

           nicg-lifesinsanity

           Certainly that won't be taken. Maybe. I'll change it on Friday.

           I just finished reading Inkheart by Cornelia Funke. I really enjoyed it. The POV was not as strong as I usually like it. But I love the world she created and the characters, though I do think the characters would've been stronger if the POV was better, but that's okay. It makes me want to re-read The Never-Ending Story. And Lord of the Rings. One day I will finish that.

           I set a goal for my writing. For once in my life. And now I see why I don't. Why do people torture themselves with deadlines? It's unnatural. I told myself that I need to reach a certain point in my manuscript by the end of June. Uh, I'm kind of close. . . if I write every day from now until then.

           But I'm always getting new ideas. Why can't they all wait until I finish the first idea? Why can't they come to me one at a time and patiently wait for their turn to be written. Must they are bombard me at once, screaming to be written, "Now, now! Now!" It's rather rude. But they are good ideas.

           What's strange is recently I've had ideas from dreams. Usually I wouldn't write off my dreams, because they are unintelligible,scary things. But there was one that was actually really good. Weird. But good for sci-fi. The other one. I had it the other night. I tried to write the notes down for it when my mom insisted on talking to me. I'm grateful for that dream though, because it didn't inspire a new story. Instead it added to one I've had in mind for a while, and my dream, for once, made the story more clear in my mind. I know how to begin in now. And the characters were so real too. I can't wait to start it.

           But I still have Oddball to finish.

A poem

           I apologize that I didn't get back to you about changing the URL sooner. Obviously the URL hasn't changed yet. Saturday became a bigger day than I had expected. But I couldn't change it to want I had said earlier anyways, so next we will try to change it to:

     theinsanityoflife.blogspot.com

           Again I'm sorry about that. :P|

           The other day I posted a poem on my writing blog. I thought I'd share it here too.



thunder rumbles overhead
the sky is dark and meandering
it's melancholy, like me

i'm waiting

oh, please don't shudder
over other lands
darken the sky
let it weigh heavy

i'm waiting

for the rain to come pouring down
to satisfy the thirsty ground
to drench me deep from head to toe
breath life into this weary air

oh, please don't shudder
over other lands

because we will wait until you rain

URL Changes

           Saturday I plan to change the URL. So if you use it to read this than here's what it will change to:

           lifesinsanity.blogspot.com

           If it doesn't work, I'll postpone the change date and let you know what it will end up as.

           Thank  you so much for reading. :)

Changes and Your Opinion

           As you can see, I've change the blog's appearance. Is it easy to read? Is the font a better size? I noticed that it used to be kind of smallish. Is the electric green too much for your eyes? Do you like it?

           I'm going to change the title soon also. Life's Insanity. And probably my username to Nic G. Unless I think of something better. Just letting you know. So you don't freak out next time you see it. I'll probably change the URL too. But not yet. I'll let you know when and what it will be in case you use the URL.

          Thank you. Anyone out there reading. You are awesome!
