Any Ideas?

As Shane said, "awaken ye blog."

I'm awake. :) I actually just had my birthday. I'm the ripe old age of 23 now.

It has been a while. I had an extremely busy summer and am now in my last year of college. Sadly, I haven't written anything in a few months. I'm lacking time and inspiration, but I want to start writing soon. (I'm also way behind on reading everyone else's work. Sorry.)

Maybe you could help.

Leave me a topic, word, picture, etc. I could write about. :)
