Another day in this chair of necessity and I feel chained to the sluggish energy of this drowsy town. I miss the warm air and the view of where the water falls over the edge of the world. The lights and the pace will always lure my senses. I'm spending another day in this chair and I feel crowded trying to make my way through a constant country music haze. The energy of this town is sluggish and if I hear one more sad slow strained note pound this rainy grey sky I swear I'll... SARCASM BREEDS A BROKEN HEART, and I have enough cracks. Please stop breaking me! |

 (big hugggssssss) Oh Jennifer, I know just how you feel, dearest friend, hearing those songs can bring trauma to my mind amidst all the drama we face ever so much and I just want to drift away from the moment! (sad sigh) I send angel hugs your way, dearest friend, I haven't seen you in a while so I hope everything is alright, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jennifer, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Jenn, I can sooooo relate to this... just.... wasting... well done and well written. I especially love how you leave the end hanging... perfect! On a unrelated note (or is it related to your "wasting" concept?... hmmmm) Where are you? I have missed you lots my tempting friend.  - Jeff |

There are times where we need to sit in that chair, for just a moment, before we finally break free of it. Thank you. What light through yon window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. |

Being in a new place is hard, especially without much prior warning. Post something for the book. |

You are not wasting a day when you sit in the right chair!--and you did sit down in the right chair when you wrote this compelling piece of writing! You really pulled the reader in and shared your very personal experience. Warm hugs, EA |

You'll???? Hmmm, missing the water. No cure for that but moving back to the water. I know, I suffer from the same. Now I can't move back, it's too expensive. Someday, I will, though. Hope you are well, dear one! Cor |
