It's really annoying enough for you to actually click the messages to mark them as read. He he he I love it. ;)
That way I do not forget to check them. even if I decide to open them later on. (as I usually do when I get long mail from someone who's got a name longer than 3 characters. ;)

Hi,
I've recently come across a totally new obstacle for me when it comes to writing poetry.
At the moment I'm trying to write a poem about a very special occasion.
It's been more than 20 years now and I think I should be able to write about it.
After all I can talk about it, joke about it. Tell people about it.
But when I tried to write a poem
when I got a bit deeper into it
I can't do anything but cry.
Is there a way to get away from that? Cause writing and crying is not a good combo.
If I write and cry what I write turn out to just be a big blobb of bohoo poor me stuff.
That noone not even I can enjoy and be touched by.
I've decided, now, to try and write the poem after certain rules rather than free writing.
Might keep my mind from breaking down.
All suggestions welcome!
Cheers
Mandsi

I sure hope I did get a good grade on that test I did. I have a twitch in my left eye and have been up for 12 hours now. I don't want to start every sentence with I, but I will any how. I had a bad, really bad, thought earlier. I started (I almost started with It instead of I, I suppose it starts with an i but yeh.. I meant the word I not the letter.) thinking about getting a job, which is good. I imagined the scenario of me working first in a store and later with old people. I found it very, very nice to work with this lady who all of a sudden said that she would let me be her heir. I told her it was a bad idea, smiling to myself. I really could see how she was a stubborn old lady and nothing I would say about ethics could change her mind... (I'll break the deal with Is now.) UNTIL I realised that I would go on and on and on and on and blow it all. Being so convincing with it being better to give the money to an organisation than one person, it would make more people happy to get solar panels than me getting her money. She'd probably end up giving it all away to them. But she did most likely change her mind back right before she died and changed it to my name.. I sure hope she did. And that is why I am a bad person and good at blurting. My eye is still twitching and I think I should let myself kip, just a wee bit.
