Dark side of the moon

Moving in a few days and as of now it could happen as soon as 48 hours from now if weather permits. I'd thought about a pet for a little while, still considering if it's something i'd really want to be motivated to go for before bringing up the thought with the roommate.

Nights have always been late for me. Getting used to a 8-5 job now still finds me getting to bed at an average of 2am. Not for any particular reason, give one that I think is about to come around again.

I used to write a lot. Quite a bit. I'd listen to music at night and it'd give me idea's, stories I'd start writing. Sometimes I'd start writing with no idea where it'd be going just to see what came out for which sometimes something interesting did.

Then I stopped writing for a while. I haven't written much of anything in the past six months and I'm starting to get motivated to get the pen moving again. It all starts the same way. It starts with my headphones on before going to sleep and idea's hitting you like an electric shock. Then from those idea's others rush up and soon you have to start writing it down so you don't forget where it all came from and hopefully some time soon you'll come to see where it's going.

The idea's seem to come quite scattered, it's like watching a movie trailer in your head and then building back story around that. It never really gets deep into development except for the really big things that happen to affect the story.

During college, most nights I'd find i'd be up until at least 3am every morning with a lot of different idea's floating around, some of which I was able to turn into little projects whether it be that Gangsters schtick or the Hick Show which, turned out quite different than I had origionally pictured it, turned out well in the sense that if not the best television quality, it was entertaining.....if only for watching the talent suffer through trying to talk through those fake hick teeth.
