Why does anyone want an ice hotel?

I have no idea what the answer to that question is. I see these stupid ice hotels created every year and wonder why the hell people both. Anyway, I was feeling the urge to write so let's see what we get.

I'm avoiding my homework. I should be teaching myself Dreamweaver right now. So as you can see, I thought blogging might assist in that process. Look, I am so not a web designer. I'm OK with it. I don't supposed this will help my grade any.

I'm also avoiding adding some pages to my first attempt at writing a book. I always thought I loved to write/was a decent writer until I actually sat down to write a book. Why I assumed the process would be easy, I have no idea. It's not. And well, just like any other type of work, this too has its downfalls. The main difference for me with writing as opposed to my 9-5 is that I ALWAYS feel I've accomplished something after I've produced a piece. It could be a three word sentence on the back of a gum wrapper or a twenty page research paper. Either way, I'm satisfied. I cannot say this about my JOB.

Clearly it's not the topic that is important to me but rather the fact that I'm able to identify my feelings at all and get them on paper. So is this why writing a book is hard? I mean there is so much to think about. One, identifying how I feel about the characters two, identifying how I'm feeling in general, and THREE, separating just enough of my personal feelings from the story to let my characters live in their own emotions. And this is just the beginning.

Ugh. I spend a lot of time in my head. Enjoy today's mental discharge.
