I keep trying to decide...
...whether or not I have anything interesting to blog about. Then I read Icepunk's blogs and I realize that it doesn't matter whether or not I have anything interesting to blog about.
For those of you that might take offence at that, I'm not trying to pick a fight, it's just a fact. When was the last time Ice wrote about anything that made sense?
Moving right along...
So I think I might be over my writers block. Today I sat at the computer and churned out about a chapters worth of material in one of my books (the one I've been working on since I was 12 that I maight actually have done by my birthday), and it's been very well recieved by those I have allowed to read it. I may even let some of you read it. I think I can trust you to not gank my material.
What else can I jabber about??? Jabber? The Jabberwacky! I haven't been to visit him/her in so long.
Well that was a pointless train of thought...
Of course, this is a pointless blog entry, too...

Pointlessnessity
This has proven that we really have nothing to occupy our time
!
Speaking of books, I recently looked through some of my early writings and I finally have my creative juices flowing also. Maybe I'll write something interesting this time. I found one story that I am going to look at more; I think it, (unlike many of my other writings) actually has some potential. Please pray that I'm right 'cause I like it!!

Time to Write
I've only been working on my story for about two years. I can hardly find time to work on it at all though; mAlex wants me to do character sketches, Splicky Missions are coming up, and I have still other media I'm working on, like cartoons with ToonBoom. I think it's all swinging nicely into gear, but it is still my greatest fear that I will take as long on my story as you have described regarding your situation. (Gotta keep that excitement up once you announce the project, you know?) It's probably an irrational fear, but I can't get rid of it, and at least it keeps me going.

Wacky? ... Wocky!

The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandesnatch!"

The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!"

My novels
I have been working on my two epics (both part of a series) and only have about ten pages which probably won't even make it into the finished version.
Everyone else is so much more prolific it makes me a little jealous.

That was below the belt
Then I read Icepunk's blogs and I realize that it doesn't matter whether or not I have anything interesting to blog about.
Hey, at least I don't ramble on for twenty paragraphs about how I don't have anything to post about, and then post another twenty paragraphs listing books and movies I've read and watched.

lists
That list is for informational purposes. If you want to know something, these are the things upon which I will be able to comment accurately.
Just to clarify before someone takes a cheap shot, this list does not convey the full extent of my knowledge, only a small portion of the knowledge that has to do with written or visual entertainment.

Cheap Shot
This list is for informational purposes:
=> Broken glass hurts when you chew on it.
=> I like bananas.
=> Many things can kill you, and most of those have legitimate, non-fatal applications as well.
=> Music can be fun; unless you die from it.
=> This list is nearing completion.
=> I have a wadded up napkin on my desk.

a list of my own
1) I hate math of any sort
2) I hate Missouri with an unrivaled passion
3) Wearing a sari is very uncomfortable
4) I enjoy laughing at people who're feverishly getting ready for prom [ not Christian, perhaps, but true]
5) Sleeping until 9am is mayhap my favorite pastime

I hope and pray that none may kill me,
Nor I kill any, with woundings grim,
But if ever any should think to kill me,
I pray Thee, God, let me kill him.
Hmm...
I think I liked mAlex's list better. It seemed more random.
Besides... We could have people from Missouri on the site, and they probably wouldn't take too kindly to you expressing "unrivaled" hatred, especially since you don't specify what about Missouri it is that you so dislike.

He's not fat, he's just disproportionally short!

Perhaps...
She didn't express any dislike for the people in Missouri, just Missouri itself.
Perhaps even Missouri-ans dislike Missouri? Would any Missouri-ans care to weigh in?

Hey!
"I hate math of any sort" -Madame Librarian
"I totally agree with your entire list, madamel.
!!" -Mariel 7
I love math! It's my favorite subject, and you're double-teaming it!
...I would have said "Quit picking on the little guy!" at that point, but for one, Math isn't a little guy, and for two, this cheesey wannabe-joke had gotten old enough to use the phrase "Back in my day..."
---------------

math
math is evil, but perhaps a necessary evil
kind of like radiation therapy in that you hope the radiation kills the cancer before it kills you
so... you hope math will kill... something... before it kills you.

missouri
I don't hate people from missouri, I hate Missouri
it's where my best friends moved to
they left home and moved to that armpit and I despise it!
"...Though I may be forced to faint if my imagination gets the better of me."

"math is evil, but perhaps a necessary evil kind of like radiation therapy in that you hope the radiation kills the cancer before it kills you" -Madame Librarian
No, it's not like radiation theropy, it's more like vegetables.

Very Good Advice
=> A red-hot poker will burn you if you hold it too long.
=> If you cut your finger very deeply with a knife, it usually bleeds.
=> If you drink from a bottle marked "poison," it is almost certain to disagree with you, sooner or later.

Math Is Evil ... but neccesary
so... you hope math will kill... something... before it kills you. -madamelibrarian
I think Math was designed to kill ignorance, (see 'Slowing Down Time') but this purging process is extremely painful! (for most of us ... Quartz
)
Everyone in my math class is going to make shirts that say "I survived Geometry '06"!! I'm pretty good at Math, but although it loves me, I hate it
!!! My shirt's going to say "I kicked Geometry's butt" 
!!!!
...Almost all vegetables are nasty... *gag*

All veggies are nasty, except for potatoes. Mashed potatoes smothered with butter.
But Pizza is awesomest.

If potatoes aren't veggetables what are they?
And, Quartz, I like the bit about juggling opposums. I agree.

More lists
-> Never play with fireworks indoors
-> Never put fireworks near an open flame
-> Never put fireworks down your pants
-> Never point bottlerockets directly at someone
This is from a website, redversusblue.com that I really don't recomend, however this is one of the funniest episodes from the site (especially when performed by one of my friends at lunch
).
It involves a demonstration for each of these stupid ideas, except they use grenades
