Still incredibly lazy about blogging…

Sorry about that.

It seems that I’ve hit some kind of creativity block recently… can’t think of a good video, or get anywhere in my book, or make anything on photoshop, or anything like that and it’s driving me bonkers!  It seems like all I can do is write about how I have nothing to write about, ha ha ha.

That said, I have written a few songs recently.  I’m debating whether to put them in videos… partially because I’m incredibly self-conscious about my writing, and partially because the audio on my camera is sooooooo bad.

I did have the bizarre experience of hearing someone else sing one of my songs the other day, though.  I was at a party hanging out with Caitlin, Shelby and Angel.  Caitlin had her guitar (she always does), and we were playing and singing and stuff, and she ended up playing “Out of Control”.  It is so weird to hear my words coming from someone else!  I was incredibly flattered that they had bothered to listen to the song enough to know it, but it was still kind of… scary?  I don’t know.  Does anyone else know what I mean?

I’ve also found that my songs have this underlying theme of things that I would like to say to someone/something, but know I never will.  Which is interesting because 1) I didn’t plan it that way and 2) I used to write letters to people that I never intended to send as my own little form of therapy. (Did that sentence make any sense?  I don’t think it did…)

*Awkward blog ending… now.*

    I write letters like that all the time.
    And about the song thing.. I’ve never really experienced that. The only person who’s ever played any of my songs have been my mom when she’ll like sing harmony with me at a gig or something. Not quite the same though. haha. I can imagine it would be pretty weird if one of my friends just started singing/playing one. Definitely flattering.

    Yeah, it’s one thing when it’s my sister singing one of my songs… but when my friends were playing it, it was just so weird! In a good way, but weird nonetheless.
    I’m sure it won’t be long before it happens with one of your songs :)
