Ramblings Of An Unquiet Mind

Helping Pass The Time of Writer's Block - Name your Cursor!

Today I had great plans to write.

Write, write, write.

Instead, I'm sitting watching my little cursor blink, blink, blink. Bloody hell!!! What a pain in the butt.

So as I was sitting, watching the irritating little cursor, I thought, I'm not going to place my frustration at your door. It's not your fault that you are patiently waiting for me to give you something to do. In fact, little cursor, you're probably frustrated at me. "What's she waiting for? I'm here, I'm blinking, I'm not going anywhere. Whenever you're ready!!"

Well, I'm sorry, little cursor, but the brain is not engaging. It's like a blank page in front of me at the moment.

But you know what, little cursor? You and I are going to spend an enormous amount of time together. We will be spending hours staring at each other or working hard. So I am going to give you, my little cursor, a name.

I name you, Sir Cursoralot. Because there will be a lot of cursing on this journey of ours, you silently, as you can do no more than that, and me out loud and proud. So welcome, Sir Cursoralot, to this journey of writing we will together tame.

What would you name your cursor??
