cheeseball city

here comes the challenge...no gigs to write about...no gigs til january to pimp...what on earth will i talk about for...i don't know, at least a few paragraphs? i write in rhymes...in 3 minutes or less...including an instrumental solo!

i have to admit, i'm blocked...i haven't written a song since 'take your time' back in october of LAST YEAR! i make myself too busy...seems there is always something that needs to be done...and rightfully so, there is, however, i didn't have any problem putting that aside all those years ago, to pop out a song...i didn't have to schedule it...they practically fell out of me...i feel i have come to a time where i have to step outside of myself to draw on experiences...i happen to be in love right now...love songs are cheesy...i've been trying to write one for 6 months...everytime i try, i get frustrated "it's too campy" or "oh man, cheeseball city"...and it's hard to rhyme 'cheese'...don't get me wrong, i'm still working it out, but i've also heard one songwriter say "as soon as i wrote her a song, she left me"...don't really want to risk that...maybe i'm making excuses for myself...i hate when i do that...

it's turned cold again...it was downright 'warm' this last week...only one layer required, and no hat...it was great! now...it's not supposed to get above 20 degrees...i'm not a big fan of the cold...if i could stay in all day when it's cold, i'd be just fine...i used to question those that went south for the winter...their 'winter homes' in arizona...i totally get it now...someday...

ok, time to get some stuff done...wittle my list down so i can justify picking up my guitar, and see what happens...

carry on,
nikki
