I seem to be lacking the proper resources for everything lately. For an update on etsy, I plan on having candles up soon, however I ran out of wax. So in the mean time, I'd like to talk about something else.
I once read something about how people say things that are obvious. One of them was to say "its always the last place you look" when you've lost something "Of course its the last place you look, why would you keep looking after you've found it?" I thought it was kind of amusing because now every time I can't find what I'm looking for I think about that article.
I'm bringing this up because every time I have some great idea, there is not a piece of paper or pen in sight. Just the other day I had something I so desperately wanted to write down, and of course I'm standing in a room with no pens, no paper, no computer, I didn't even have my cell phone on me. I had to resort to my old study habits and repeat the idea in my head over and over until I had it memorized. I think its funny how that works. I assume it makes some sense because I do a lot of my brain storming late at night when I cant sleep, generally while driving my car. However, in this particular instance, I was standing in the very center of my bedroom. Very rarely am I without at least a pen and paper. I dug through every desk drawer, dresser drawer, shuffled through my bookshelf, and checked around my laptop stand with no luck. The bigger issue here, is that it doesn't make any sense. What kind of desk doesn't have at least a pen in it? And what kind of laptop stand doesn't have a laptop on it? What I would really like to know, is why is it that things don't want to be found when you want to find them! I could have tore up the entire house and not been able to find a pen that day. That's the funny thing about life though, sometimes you just wont be able to find what you're looking for.
