I found this old thing lurking on my hard drive...

You know you have them too: those weird projects you were so motivated to begin but did not complete. I dare you to brush the dust off a couple of their desiccating corpses and prop them up here, posed for a second life.

I'll start:

Childishness want touch on me a breaker wall to loneliness the seeker of an empty hand I've not forgotten what it was to be wanted more than consequence could recall it was out of your empty palm a balm given me I gave myself to gift to you a gift to me more available than vacancy and closer than the dispersion of your liquescent breath.

In my defense, I think I had a fever.

I have a "conlang" project that has languished for years. I think it's something that'll have to wait until retirement to see completion.

Oh, wait, I'm not a baby boomer; I don't get to retire... :wallbash:

touch on me, loneliness

amidst plenty, empty handed

I've not forgotten, seeker

what it was you wanted

far more than you will ever recall

my gift to you, your gift to me

...well, that's a first pass. don't be surprised if you find out you've collaborated with me on a new song

Ah...so my half-start will be resurrected! I've found a home for my orphan. Who's next? C'mon, y'all, bring out yer dead!

Still working on my three novels after all these years. They were deleted by Boshy on accident TWICE and I had to start allll over again, but this time I have been smart and writing them down, then typing them, THEN saving them in several places.

:shock:

I would go NUTS if someone deleted my stuff.

I started rewriting my novels as well, but that was out of personal choice. :)

I had something sort of like a children's book, but I was only going to work on it while stoned. Anyways I'm abandoning it here.

She had always wanted to go to the castle that seemed to hover between its dilapidated sister and newfound brother. The structure in the middle was different, older and more mysterious. All three enormous structures bordered the end of a quaint town where mist rose round their visible beginnings.

The castle on the left was falling apart, adventurous, and dangerous. The castle on the right had risen just a few years ago from the sea somehow on its own, now a refuge for outlaws. But the structure in the middle was a maze with a myth behind it; the last source of magic in the world was said to reside here.

Whatever it was, this mythological artifact was said to spread untold power throughout the world. Though most didn’t believe in magic and that such an artifact was not real.

The town before the structures was a mixture of people living in prosperity and few dared enter the castles.

The intention: start an Etsy site selling hand sculpted clay figurines, mostly of cats and the like.

The initiation: Made 3 and they came out awesome. That was about a year ago.

I have recently cleaned up an area that is serving as my "studio." It got sidetracked for some Christmas projects, and needs some re-organizing. But I'm back on Wellbutrin now and already seeing positive effects. So I should be pushing the clay again soon.

    • I am currently floored.   FedEx did a massive 6 box delivery to the wrong address.  I had an autoship order scheduled to arrive before this past weekend.  Nothing showed up.  I contacted the order site and they had a link for the order...a photo of all my boxes thrown in the snow and up the sidewalk of a residence that was not mine.   You would think that at some point, the driver would have looked at the delivery address after they kept throwing box upon box at this location with no shelter from the elements.  They didn't even knock on the door to inform the residents that massive 65+ pound boxes were left all over their walkway.  Nope.  Just dumped them, took a photo as they were walking away and left.   I wonder what the person who found all of those misdelivered boxes must have been thinking when they saw them.  Maybe they kept everything to use, distribute or sell.  No idea.  No claim was filed on that end as of yet.   Fortunately for me, one of the sites that I ordered from, replaced everything at no extra cost.   Unfortunately, now I'm concerned for the other items yet to be delivered.   Needless to say, I'll be watching my notifications like a hawk.

    • ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.
