Colette's Blogging Space

[sigh]

The time on the clock reads: 10:08pm. I sit here with tired eyes and chapped lips. There’s a sucker stick sitting on the table next to me with what used to be a caramel tootsie pop, creating a sticky mess. The silence is no more as my last.fm playlist blurts out the song ‘Dreamlife’ by Sleeping at Last - ironic huh? Anyway, I notice my hands quiver on the keyboard as a chill runs down my spine. I glance to the window and notice little specks of what appear to be a mixture of rain and snow falling from the dreary sky. Now I continue to write despite the fact I just went into a daze; pondering on what is to become and what will be…I think to myself about the road ahead and which path I will choose. And although I don’t use twitter on a regular basis I tweet my thoughts. The smell of tonights dinner still lingers in the air as it fills the room with a sweet and spicy scent - almost like a Christmas candle.

I notice my foot beginning to tap now as the song, ‘Dogs Days Are Over’ by Florence and the Machine makes its round. My hair falls in my face and I carelessly swipe it back, only for it to fall back where it was.

[yawn]

Time: 10:27. My body is slouched with my left hand holding my head up, in which case I proceed to type with only my right pointer finger - extremely inefficient. By this time the song ‘Jacksonville’ by Sufjan Stevens is throwing its beats. I sway gently in my seat only to notice that I’m about to fall off. I catch myself as my body lunges for the carpeted floor and along comes the gooey sucker stick. Hesitantly, I place the stick on my tongue only to find that is still contains hint of caramel flavor. After a couple minutes the paper begins to get soggy and I chew on it like a hillbilly chews on hay. Eventually I pitch the stick yet the taste of caramel lingers in my mouth.

I am typing once again using both hands only to notice that I have been sitting here for roughly 40 minutes. It isn’t until now that I realize I should probably ‘hit the hay’. But don’t fear for I have many more stories and emotions to share, so hang in there. This isn’t the end.

Alright so I’m defiantely what you would call a ‘noob’ to Tumblr…I have no idea what I’m getting myself into, all I know is that I want to start ‘blogging’ you might say…anyway I’ll admit I did type in ‘how to use tumblr’ into the search engine; but the results were not much help…I messed around with it for a little bit and decided that I would try and write my first blog - or so I thought. Anyway, after a while I got done writing my little spiel and I think I accidentally hit a wrong button or something - who knows - and so it saved only half of what I had written…so in otherwords I won’t be posting anything too exciting tonight. Maybe I’m not meant for this (sigh)…so yeah, I guess for now I’ll just give it a break and perhaps try again tomorrow…goodnight :)
