I have tried (unsuccessfully!) to start a proper blog for years now but I cannot seem to commit. I try to - I have it all worked out in my mind...I plan out everything I'm going to say, detailed with the jazzy pictures I am going to add and it all looks so exciting, fresh and enticing...but somehow it never happens. I write every single day in my diary so it would make sense that I should start a blog diary type thing that others would read (but then again, who would want to read my rambles?) but I just can't seem to do it and stick at it. Oh I'm computer savvy...I know my way around the internet. Maybe I'm just lazy...although that's a cop out because I know that I am not. Maybe I just like the IDEA of a blog where I sound intelligent, whimsical and literary. That is probably it actually. However I'm here now, trying once more to make this blog thing work...so hold my hand and help me walk through the flames that are curling up my legs...
I have decided to name this blog 'my Blue castle' as an ode to L.M Montgomery's book 'The Blue Castle' and because I believe it speaks volumes about who I am as a person. I love fairy tales. I love old fashioned values. I love kings and queens. I love pretty frocks and nice hair. I am forever searching for my own blue castle. I always turn to this book when I need a pick me up. It lifts my spirits. It's so magical and it's just so...so...god damm nice. I like Valancy maybe because she reminds me of myself....? It's not even my favorite L.M Montgomery book. My favorite is 'Anne of Green Gables' and I don't mind being thought of as unoriginal or boring for saying that because I truly love this book with all my heart. More so though, I love ANNE with all my heart and I have ever since I was about five years old. We are kindred spirits. I love L.M Montgomery for creating her.
I'm tired and I feel like there is smoke drifting in front of my eyes. I don't think this entry will be very long but I am going to make sure I write something in here at least once a day...
That is the plan anyway.Who knows though. I am not very good at sticking to plans and schedules.
I have tea by my side. I love tea (very strong, half a teaspoon of brown sugar and a dash of milk) An old friend accused me of trying to be quirky by having brown sugar in my tea but honestly I'm not trying to be quirky or cute. It really does taste better. I absolutely love tea. I have so many different flavors in my cupboards that never fail to delight me. A friend just sent me a wonderful new kind of tea. I'm not exactly sure what it is but it tastes delicious! It's got bits of plum and peach strewn about it. I love it. I'm chilling some of it right now. Yum.
Goodnight princes and princess (for you all are you know)
