First off, a piece of advice to everyone. Don't trust anyone who throws up a peace sign in photos or anyone who ends a conversation with the word peace. Just letting everyone know.

Anyway, on to other things. I really, really need to get my act together. I haven't been writing anything in months, at least not since December. I have the notes and outline for my novel (and my novel has been eating at me), a stack of short stories that need revisions, and a notebook full of notes and ideas that is pretty much just collecting dust.

Sure, things in my life have been hectic and stressful but there's really no excuse for it. I've been purposefully ignoring my writing which in turn makes me more unhappy and more stressed out so it's a whole circular thing. I don't write because I'm unhappy and I'm unhappy because I don't write.

I've just had no self control lately. I keep talking about wanting to lose weight, and here I am seven pounds heavier than when I said I was going to lose weight. Maybe if I stopped eating every goddamn thing in sight I could work on that. Sure I've started biking and jogging but it doesn't mean a thing when I eat a largely over proportioned dinner and follow it up with a pint of ice cream. All the jogging I can do won't save me from that.

My priorities have just been severely misplaced lately. I need to write more, at least every day. I need to stick to my diet, I need to do a whole lot of things but it seems to be a whole lot easier to sit around and watch tv and play video games which is getting me nowhere.

It's just that every time I say I'm a writer or a photographer I realize that I really have nothing to show for it and I feel like a complete phony even saying it. I'm more of a professional couch potato and procrastinator than anything else. I haven't even been reading as much as I normally do.

I've been putting all of my passions on the back burner and it's taking its toll on me. I need to get my act together, one way or another.
