What's a peg? In any case, I go to the bathroom as well to clear my mind and thoughts, it's like a place of refuge for me in many ways, and has been for years. Though, strangely enough while I can't very well think while at work, I feel better once away, or had in the past. That is to say, when my family or friends annoyed me, going to work and getting away from them helped. I suppose that it will change again some day, that is, my place of refuge! In fact, it has already, my fiance is a place of refuge for me.

i get my ideas and topics to write about form others discussions that i just commented on like if there talking about ghost i might ask are you afraid of ghost. as simple as that. thats my inspiration asking questions are sometimes easy for me and others time it isn't so much. and some people they say they get an idea from smoking!? wow thats a little bit strange but anything possible. were all different people with alot of different views and opinions. and i can get my ideas sometimes when i'm just sitting down and thinking about something else then pop something comes into my head. or when i hear a word similar to what i should be remembering. so my memory isn't all that good.

I usually get my ideas for discussion topics from things that happen to me or someone that I know or see.I also get the ideas from something someone has said here on myLot or on another site online.

I get my ideas from almost everywhere and anywhere i go. When i read a magazine i might come up with an idea to start a discussion or even when I'm out driving i might come up with an idea. I might even be shopping and think of my what a great idea to start a discussion, but the thing is if i don't write what i am thinking down i will forget about it when i get home and now i can't start a discussion, so for me i try to write down everything i am thinking so i can start a good topic on a discussion.

Hello mssthirdeye, I get my ideas when I go for a walk and see something outside. For me it's the best way to think of something - to see what others have and use it for your own. Cheers! Thok
