Bored?

I've seen a lot of "holidays" being celebrated lately that I never heard of so for curiosity's sake I Googled "is today a holiday?" Yep, several came up, strange ones, but this is the one I clicked on  . Sounds like a pretty nice holiday, maybe one that should be everyday. And yesterday was Aunt and Uncles Day...which I missed...which I don't have any more of anyway .

As you may have guessed, I'm bored. I have a writing critique group to attend tomorrow, and my muse has deserted me. This morning I thought I would write about my Uncle Johnny's trunk. I named the story and everything...Life in a Trunk. I inherited it when he passed away in 2000. I described it perfectly, measurements, color, adornments, locks, handles, the picture was there, but when it came time to "write", nothing. So there the story ends with the description until my muse returns.

Actually what happened was I got sidetracked. I started looking, again, at things in the trunk. And wasted the entire day doing that instead of writing about it. No matter how many times I take out all the stuff, it's still like the first time...I go back in time. It's a time machine!

until next time...c
