Standing Tall On The Wings Of My Dream

I have a touch of writer's block today. Nothing horrible - just can't figure out how to get from point A to point B without losing all of my readers to boredom. That's all. Every author has a tried and true technique for breaking through the block, from what I hear. Some just keep going, even if it's rubbish. Some jump to the end and write backwards. Some go for a hike, or watch a movie. What do I do, you may ask?

I, apparently, seek out inspiration from TV Theme Songs. I mean, if this inspirational classic, courtesy of Balki and Cousin Larry, doesn't inspire you, nothing will.
Think about it. Whatever inspiration you are seeking or reassurance you need, there is a television theme song for you. If you, like me, have quit your full time job and are throwing all of your energy and effort into a writing career which, let's face, could very easily amount to nothing, "Perfect Strangers" is the one for you. 

But then again, maybe that doesn't fit your situation. Maybe you're a lonely old man, or an orphan, or an uptight kid who's been away at military school, or really just any person who thought they were going to be alone forever and never expected a little girl with a strange name/a really rich dad you've never met with a giant train set in his house/the family whose house you clean to really make their way into your heart. If that's your life, then you of course can seek inspiration from one of the following:
But what if you're just beginning to embark on your new life, raising a family with your best friend and your dead wife's brother? Or, even more difficult yet, what if an ex-girlfriend left you AND another one of her exes custody of her teenage daughter? I know that both of these situations have affected many of you, so here's a little inspiration just for you...
The point is there is no problem too big or too small for a TV theme. And what if you're a grumpy old church deacon who occasionally feels like jumping rope? Yep...there's something for you as well. Just keep dreaming, Deacon Frye. Just keep dreaming.
