Best Cure for Writer's Block: Start Writing

No matter how long you stare at a blank screen, words won't magically fill the white space. Nothing will show up until you start hitting the keys. Pearls of wisdom learned the hard way: by staring at my blank computer screen for about 10 minutes, waiting for a flash of inspiration.

Nothing worth noting has happened today. It's been a very relaxed day actually. No drama, relaxed classes. And nothing beats a long late night trip to Target. The only thing keeping me from curling up and perusing the internet until I pass out is this post, a pile of laundry and the fact that I haven't written that pancake poem yet. Even after eating New York style cheesecake pancakes at IHOP yesterday, I still haven't quite got the theme yet. But I'm working on it and the night is still young.

It's the perfect time for the deep poetic magic to happen.
