Hmmm . . .

Sometime I feel like a broken record.

I work hard not to repeat myself. At least not too much. If I were to write about the topic for this week's Thursday post - As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? As a grown up, did you choose the profession you wanted as a child? If you didn't, what drew you to the profession you have? - I would be repeating what I've already written about. Ok, maybe not the last part, but surely the first two questions.

(Sorry Jenn @ Charmingly Random! I tried. I really tried!)

That being the case, I considered how I was going to approach situation. Some of the ideas:

• Joke About It

I considered pretending I that I really wanted to be a Stripper/Exotic Dancer as a kid, but it didn't work out because I just didn't have the goods. However, then I decided that it could be in poor taste.

• Top Ten List

Oh, how I love lists! Then I thought, maybe I would put a list together of all the things I dreamed of being now as an adult. But I think I've talked about those things too.

• Play On Pop Culture

A friend offered up the idea of doing a play on pop culture. Take a pop culture reference, such "I wanted to be a Toy R' Us kid" and write about that. Tempting, but it didn't spark my creative juices.

Lastly . . .

• What I Didn't Want

I thought maybe a twist on the topic would be what careers I never wanted to touch - EVER. STILL - no luck


So, instead what you get , this week, is me, writing about the writing process and how it failed me. Or, did I fail it? Hmmm . . . Maybe there is a future blog post topic there . . .
