Day 13, Writer's block

Aaah! I knew it had to happen sometime I just thought I would have another couple of weeks before it did.

So, come one! Come all! I welcome you kind ladies and sirs to the greatest, most spectacular spectacle in the whole world! Known as my current worst fear. Heights? I spit in their face! Public speaking? Bah, I revel in it! Creepy-crawlies? Not my favorite thing in the world but what-heck-ever!

No, my current greatest fear is sitting down, opening up my writing journal (or, in this case, turning on my computer), taking pen in hand, and sitting wide-eyed and dumbfounded with my mind at a dead stop. I try to force the ideas, try to make them come through some force of will but that never works and I don't think that's how it's supposed to work.

So that's what's plaguing me right now. So instead of spending most of my morning trying to force some kind of intellectual and philosophical entry on weight loss, muscle gain, and self-reflection I'm just going to give you all an update on how I'm doing (which, I guess is the point of this blog anyway). Things seem to be going pretty well nowadays, better than last Thursday, at least. I think I've figured out how to make the daily meals work for me in a way that is easiest for me. The exercises are still relatively difficult--the jumprope is still enjoyable but, man, those strength building exercises are annoyingly time consuming and difficult. One of the harder parts is this blog, as you can well see. Let's hope I gain some kind of inspiration by tomorrow when I sit down again to, hopefully, write something for all of you.
