Don't Worry

Don't worry. I'm not just ignoring you.
I haven't really written anything at all over Winter Break. No stories, no poems, only 1 journal entry, and the meager blog posts you've shaken your head at.
I think all the papers and exams and general stress of fall semester made me unwilling to do anything requiring deep thinking during my time off.
It's unfortunate, because now that I have less than a week left before spring semester begins, I'm regretting my lack of productivity.
But what can I say? I needed a break.

On a different note, I'm currently between books, and it's driving me absolutely up the wall. I finished "The Brief History of the Dead" last night, and now I don't know where to go next. "Three Cups of Tea" is waiting patiently for me, but as I recently read "Eat Pray Love" (as you know), I think I need a bit of a break from the memoir genre.

It's 12:31 a.m., so I suppose I could just go to sleep, but I would prefer to sleep knowing I have a good book to delve into tomorrow.

Okay...I'm thinking seriously about doing some Salinger. I read "Catcher in the Rye" in 10th grade and wasn't impressed, but "Franny and Zooey" looks promising, so maybe I'll give J.D. another shot.
