I Think I Lost My Funny

There are times when I find I live too much in my head. I stare blankly at nothing and my husband asks me what the hell I am thinking about that has me so entranced and I reply “nothing” which I have no doubt is completely untrue. The fact is, my mind is whirring so fast that I haven’t actually caught up to processing the random thoughts that I have been having. This has been happening a lot lately. So, if I haven’t even processed the thoughts and ideas, it is even harder to discuss them or be funny about them!

I guess this all boils down to a pathetic apology for my lack of funny anecdotes and clever little stories of late. All I can say is that taking on this blog as a project is resulting in a lot of creative ideas for future works. So stay tuned because you will not be disappointed.

So, as I try to get to the bottom of all the random thoughts, I come across some words by Jim Morrison. First a poem…

What are you doing here?
What do you want?
Is it music?
We can play music.
But you want more.
You want something & someone new.
Am I right?
Of course I am.
I know what you want.
You want ecstasy
Desire & dreams.
Things not exactly what they seem.
I lead you this way, he pulls that way.
I’m not singing to an imaginary girl.
I’m talking to you, my self.
Let’s recreate the world.
The palace of conception is burning.

Look. See it burn.
Bask in the warm hot coals.

You’re too young to be old
You don’t need to be told
You want to see things as they are.
You know exactly what I do
Everything


And now an interesting idea…
“I think the interview is the new art form. I think the self-interview is the essence of creativity. Asking yourself questions and trying to find answers.”

So, in an attempt to find the answers I ask myself, “what is the top 10 current soundtrack to your mind scroll?”
