Thinking Aloud: Life Sure Is An Odd Duck, Ain’t It.

Well, Ain’t It?

Sure It Is.

My Life Has Always Been Of The Odder(er) Sort.

I’m The Guy That Everything Just Happened To.

If Something Bad Was Possible, I Took The Brunt.

If Something Good Was Possible, Chances Are It Eventually Did Happen In Some Small Way.

If Something In-Between Was Possible, Chances Are I Got The Far-Far-Far-Worse Side Of It.

But, I’m Not Really In The Mood To Complain.

I’m More Of A Mind To Quickly Say “THANK YOU” To You, My Peeps.

I Have My Reasons For Saying “THANK YOU” To You, And I Know I’ll Be Talking About Them More And More As Time Rolls Onward.

But, For Now, For This Moment, I’m Just A Thankful Man.

A Lot Of People Have Tried, And Have Done Their Bestest(est) To Help Carry Me Through These Past Few Years.

As Of Late Monday Afternoon, I Was Informed That A Longstanding Battle I’ve Been Fighting Has Finally Been Resolved.

It Has Been Resolved In MY Favor.

I Won.

My Life Of Hell And Bullshit And Sickness And Poor-Health And More And More Sickness, And Pain, And Suffering, And Blah Blah Blah, And Yakity Schmakity, Has Finally Paid-Off.

At Least, In Regard To This ONE Little Victory.

However, It Makes Me Feel Best Because FINALLY Someone Took Notice That Was In A Position To Do Something About It.

And, They Sided In My Favor.

I’m Elated,

I Feel An Enormous Sense Of Relief.

The 18,000lbs Elephant, With The 800lbs Gorilla Riding Said Elephant, Feel Lifted From Me.

Now I Just Need To Get This Pesky Monkey Off My Damned Back…

…And Perhaps This Chip Off Of My Shoulder…

…Oh, And The Thorn In My Side…

…Uh…

…Yeah…

…Nevermind.

But, Yes, “THANK YOU” Again, Everyone.

Now, Maybe Life Really Can Start Again.

Or, Hopefully, Continue Just Improving And Improving, Bit By Bit.

That Would Be Most Acceptable.

Thoughts AND Questions… …Sunday Edition

Alright, My Peeps.

Now That I’ve Found All My Old Notes…

…Rough-Drafts…

…Scrawlings And Scribblings…

…Character Lists…

…Plot Outlines…

…The Works…

…I Find Myself In A State Of Pure DISARRAY!

There’s So Much To Work With That I’m Overwhelmed.

I’m Muddled.

I’m Fog’ishly Foggy.

I Must Must MUST Get Organized.

There’s Just So Much.

So SO MUCH.

The Task Is A Bit Heavy, To Be Honest.

/\

/\/\

/\/\/\

QUESTION #1:

HOW DO Y’ALL GET ORGANIZED?!

QUESTION #2:

WHAT DO YOU DO SPECIFICALLY THAT BRINGS ABOUT THE BEST RESULTS FOR YOURSELF?!

QUESTION #3:

HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHICH OF YOUR THOUGHTS/PROJECTS ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT TO BE HANDLED AT THAT PARTICULAR TIME?!

QUESTION #4:

WHICH DO YOU PUT FIRST…

…YOUR BLOG…

…OR…

…YOUR LARGER PROJECTS?!?!

QUESTION #5:

DID YOU JUST GRAB MY ASS?!?!

\/\/\/\/\/\/\/

\/\/\/\/

\/

I’m Very Curious As To What Y’all Will Say.

I Have So Many Different Directions To Go, Yet Am Hampered By The Fact That There’s Only ONE Me.

Well, Only ONE Me That I Have Access To, I Suppose.

And I Just Can’t Wrap My Head Around This One.

What’s My Better Material?

What Characters Do I Have The Most Established In My Notes?

What Notes Do I Have That Are Closest To A Finalized Idea?

Work On The Novel?

Work On The Other Novel?

Work On The Screenplay?

Work On The Pieces That Have No Set Format, Yet?

Work wORk worK

I Need ADVICE, My Peeps.

How Do I Settle-Upon Any ONE THING, And Run With It, When There’s So SO MUCH To Work-With/Choose-From

???? ??? ????

YOUR THOUGHTS, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, My Peeps?!?

PLLLLEEEEAAAASSSSE?!?!?

Thinking Aloud: Post-HALLOWEEN-Edition: “Ever Since My Trip To CHICAGO…

…I’ve Been Drawn-To, And Excited-By, The Film “THE GREY” Starring LIAM NEESON.”

I’ve Been Fixated Upon-It, Actually.

http://youjivinmeturkey.com/2012/10/31/once-more-into-the-fray-into-the-last-good-fight-ill-ever-know/

SEE !!!

I TOLD YA SO !!!

I’m SURE You’ve Noticed, But…

…I Really Just Can’t Help Myself.

The First Time I Saw It, I Liked It.

But, I Convinced Myself I Didn’t Like It So Much.

And Then I Watched-It A Second Time.

I Knew I Couldn’t Convince Myself To Dislike It Any Longer, So I Just Let The Greatness Of It Wash Over Me.

Then I Saw It A Third Time.

Then A Fourth.

I Just Can’t Help Myself.

To Me, It’s Like It Was After The First Time I Saw “KRULL” !!!

I Wanted To Watch It Again, And Again, AND AGAIN !!!

I Was The Same Way With A Few Other Choice-Flicks.

I Remember Doing It When “TOMBSTONE” Came Out.

I Remember Doing It When “LEON: THE PROFESSIONAL“…

(…AKA “THE PROFESSIONAL…)

…1ST Came Out.

I Remember Doing It When “ARMY OF DARKNESS” Came Out.

There Are Other Examples, But Needless To Say It Happens To Me At Times.

THE GREY

…Is…

…MY…

…Latest, Personal Craze.

To ME…

THE GREY

…Is Now…

…SPECIAL.

So Special, In-Fact, That I Can’t Stop Thinking About It.

It’s Directly Related To Having Received It AND Had My Second Viewing Of It While In The Second City Itself…

CHICAGO

!!!

The Film Makes Me Think…

…And Reflect…

…And Think Whilst I Reflect.

THE GREY

…Is Now…

…MY NEW FAVORITE REMINDER !!!

😀

A Reminder Of Being In The Company Of Those I Missed Most.

A Reminder That Some Things DO Deserve A Second Chance.

A Reminder To Think How I DO Think, Not How I SHOULD Think, Or FORCE MYSELF To Think.

And…

…Of Course…

…That I LOVE ME Some LIAM NEESON !!!

Period.

That Really Sums It All Up.

Does That Work For You ???

It Sure As Hell Works For Me !!!
