then she realized that gum parkers are super gross...

Did you ever have a gum parker when you were a kid? Grossest thing ever invented, but I had one, & I used to park my gum there. In case you have no idea what I'm talking about, a gum parker is a little ceramic dish used for holding your abc gum, temporarily, while you eat dinner or take a nap. Then when you are done, you just unpark it and put the vile wad back into your mouth. (ABC stands for Already Been Chewed, btw.) That's really embarrassing. I can't believe I'm telling you this. Really, I'm just sort of grasping at straws, because what you don't know is that I have written a blog every day for the past three days at least, but none of them have been posted. I'm in a rut as they say, and can't seem to break out. Sometimes when I don't blog for awhile, it's because I'm just too busy, or I get out of the habit, or I have nothing to say. Currently, that is not the case. I have so much to say that the blogs are backing up in my brain. It's quite painful. In attempt to relieve some of the pressure, I've even taken to jotting down a list of future titles. Yesterday, I even helped Emmeli go through her sketchbook and come up with a title for every drawing, just because. Aside from snappy new titles, however, I just can't seem to spit it out, which brings me back to the abc gum. That's actually what reminded me of the gum parker. Most of these unpublished blogs are saved, and after already having chewed them to bits, sometimes I wake up the next day, still thinking about what I wrote the day before, and I go back to chewing and re-chewing. So, I'm sure if I were to ever publish them, finally, they'd be so void of flavor that you'd just be like, um... no thanks, I have my own gum. So, enough about that. Sorry to gross you out. Oh, but one more thing, I think I might have a bit of stagefright. I think that's what the problem is. I recently invited three new friends to my blog and I think I'm feeling a little insecure about that, but not to worry, I have a plan. Just a few more completely humiliating blogs like this one and I'll be sufficiently embarrassed not to care anymore.
