04/15/2005: "The mountains, the lake and writing"


The retreat is wonderful! I'm blogging from a business center computer as there are no internet connections in the rooms. Makes me painfully aware of how much time I spend surfing the net during the day. Arrived Thursday afternoon and after a nice long nap wrote several pages, went for a nice long walk and then our group met as a whole in the Lodge to talk about writing and careers. I think I may have to do this more often. smile

"Some men admit they avoid confrontation (about breaking up) because they’re afraid we’ll cry. Of course we’ll cry; we cry at Hallmark commercials. What they don’t understand is that we’re not crying because of them, we’re crying because now we have to get naked in front of someone else.”
