Sugarhigh in my veins again

I'm in a creative mood...which is actually surprising. A week ago, I was heartbroken thanks to my recent breakup. But, I realized fairly quickly that even after a breakup, I was ready to start writing. No, not working on my memoir about it just yet. But new story ideas that completely have nothing to do with my personal life. Maybe it is a way to break away from that storyline that is my real life? Possibly. But with everything seemingly back in place or in their new comfortable places, it seems like my writing is back on track. Sure, I'm working on some new things and I don't really foresee it as a book series let alone a novel, but I'm writing again. I'm devoted to it and I'm insanely in love with it. So what if they're just drabbles, just writings that I conjured up because I didn't want to pick up another story again? I'm inspired and running with it at full force.

Monday was actually not too bad. I went to work feeling that familiar sugarhigh buzz in my veins. I could not wait to sit down and write. I had no concept of where the story was going but I wanted to play in that world. Thank the event I went to Friday night where I relived my favorite movie on the big screen for the first time after meeting one of the film's actors whom I adore. Thank my amazing roommate for letting me spend time with him just vegging out on the couch while we watched British TV, Disney movies and ate homemade dinners of meatloaf and potatoes. Thanks to my ex-boyfriend who gave me some normalcy and friendship. Thanks to my best friend for sending me an IOU card for Chunky Monkey ice cream and love. Thanks for me for giving myself brownie points for being independent. Thanks to a long lost band who gave me inspiration, being rediscovered. Whatever it may be, I was able to write. I was able to explore. And I'm pretty excited for that fact.

I was concerned that somewhere in the 5 months prior to this, I would never write again. The experiment is still in progress on that one. But at least I know that it was not permanent.

Keep writing, writers. November is fast approaching and we eagerly await.
