Slacker!

I just now realized that I hadn't posted again today! I don't know what's wrong with me and why I've turned into such a slacker! Well, I guess I'm not really a slacker. I have been busy searching through and applying to gazillions of jobs. But today I'm exhausted, so that might explain my absent mindedness. I hardly slept last night. When I got into bed, I tossed and turned and just couldn't get comfortable. Then, when I did finally fall asleep, I was in that weird half-sleep state where you're dreaming but you are aware that you're not fully asleep. Know what I mean? And on top of that, the dream I was having was horrible! In my dream, my brother-in-law, sister and best friend all died, and I hung someone!

So, needless to say I was a little out of it today, but I still read through my favorite blogs this morning. My best friend does a series on one of her blogs every Thursday, called Lost in Thoughts, where she talks about what is inspiring her that week. I love reading it because she is such an inspiration to me, but it reminded me how this week I was feeling quite uninspired. Instead of just sitting around wallowing in uninspired pity, I decided to read a book that really inspired me the first time I read it.

Annie Leibovitz At Work is a really inspiring book. In it, Annie Leibovitz, herself, talks about her career in photography. I don't want to get into a full book review, but I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested. Anyway, after reading only a few pages, I turned around, looked at something I see every single day, and was inspired to finish the photography project I've been struggling with for school! Hooray! Now I'm really excited to move on to my next unit and I'm hoping the inspiration will continue to flow as I learn more and more new things.

Hope you all have a great evening! I promise I'll remember to post tomorrow!

Sometimes I feel like I am a super slacker. Sometimes I just don't have anything interesting to say. Sometimes, I just want to be a fly on the wall. You know what I mean??

Good heavens, girl! Talk about a crazy dream! lol! I'm happy when you post, because it gives me intresting reads, but I know that there are just some times~or some weeks~when the brain just needs a rest. No worries. I'll keep checking in. If you need a little break, take it...but make sure it's little. Don't be MIA for too long! :)
