Before I say anything else, let me get out of my chest something that
has been there for some time now. If you are a blogger and you want to write
about artistic blocking, DON’T. I tell you, it’s a curse. It’s like vampires,
if you invite them in then you’re screwed. The latest post I wrote was about
writer’s bl-k (I shall never write that word again) and it took me 5 months to
write a new one. See… cCuuUrsed.
On the other hand, it’s not as if I have been doing nothing all this
time and just couldn’t find the inspiration to write. Oh no, I had my hands
quite full with life itself. I won’t go into details, but I think it would be
enough of an explanation if I said that I’ve moved back home. A renovation
happened and of course, people are ‘happening’ all the time. You see I’m facing
the same problems now that I’m in Athens, only in reverse. I had people’s problems
in Liverpool because our friends were so few and social life was lousy. Now
days, there are so many people around and they all come and go, almost every
day. Even my mum’s pet, Armada, visits me every day; she’s an adorable and very
well-behaved chiwawa with really big ears.
At first I didn’t mind, still
don’t to be honest, because I missed them all so very much and I know we will
go away again, so I’m trying to fill the gaps. BUT, less and less time is left for painting, writing, taking a
bubble bath, meditating over why the sky is blue or how come it is still warm
and sunny, facebook, blogging, having a manicure or just biting my nails…
getting the picture? At Liverpool, it was all so quiet. In Athens, is all so
fussy. I think I’m going to suffer from an overdose… nah,
no one died from socializing too much, at least I don’t think so… (Have to
check it out)
Cheers everyone!
Be well, be safe, be social maniacs; brings big smiles!
