Where I do my best thinking

I realized that I do my best thinking about my writing in odd places. The shower. The car. Most especially the car. I will actually pray for a light to turn red so I can jot down my ideas real quick before it turns green again. While everyone else is sitting in traffic swearing, I'm sitting there happily writing away. :-)

I also think well when cleaning the house, doing yard work, and walking the dogs. And I get plenty of good ideas when I'm dreaming. I have a pad of paper by my bed so if I wake up at 2 a.m. in a panic over a great idea I can write it down and go back to sleep. lol. Otherise, forget it. I'll be up all night.

I have actually solved some of my toughest problems or come up with some of my best ideas while dreaming. I like it when my subconscious helps me out and hands me ideas on a silver platter. Less work for me that way, ha ha.

Anyway, it is nice to get something useful out of everyday activities that would normally suck, like standing in line at the grocery store. Although people do stare at me oddly when I suddenly freak out and rummage in my purse for a pad and pen and then start writing frantically. Oh well. I admit that I'm odd but refuse to think that's a bad thing. I revel in my weirdness!
