This morning's unexpected dash to the Starbucks on the corner turned out to be a pleasant exchange with the outside world; I even joked with the lady who asked whether I was in line or not, putting on my sarcastic face and quipping, "I am. Oh yes, I am." She laughed. I smiled at my being quick witted at seven o'clock in the morning. These are the small moments that make my day ever since deciding to enroll in an MFA writing program, which now pretty much takes up all of my time - in a good way - but still, I sometimes worry I am becoming a socially retarded. This morning proves that I am not. Not yet.
This is why I decided to start this blog. That way, I can pretend that I am speaking with the larger world and not just huddled over the my computer writing or watching animal videos on Utube. I could perhaps say something worthwhile that might inspire thought or show something about writing and photography that could help the would-be writer or photographer, or perhaps someone who already is. This is my goal, but I'm not promising anything.
