Where is brain exlax sold?

Oh, the places you’ll go! There is fun to be done! There are points to be scored. There are games to be won. And the magical things you can do with that ball will make you the
winning-est winner of all. Fame! You’ll be famous as famous can be, with the whole wide world watching you win on TV.

Except when they don’t.
Because, sometimes, they won’t.

I’m afraid that some times you’ll play lonely games too.
Games you can’t win ‘cause you’ll play against you.

~ Oh, the Places You'll Go by Dr. Seuss

Why am I quoting one of my favorite books again today? --- Besides that is it a commentary on a life's path summed up by one of the greatest Children's Lit authors to even put pen to paper.

I am academically constipated. I sit here staring at the blank Word Document and wondering when the usable writing will start to flow. Well, that is what I did for the first week. Now I am just staring at it thinking, "Ok, what is with this stupid block!?" Because I know that it is me stopping myself here. It is all me.

Is it because I want to be in Upstate NY right now?

Is it because all those stories told to me by Ex-pats unable to get jobs has me freaked out about my own future?

Did my year off leave me more rattled and self doubting than I thought?
