captain_slinkyMaking myself a promise today, and an apology to those of you stuck with my updates on your Friends List because things are about to get... disjointed.
Up to 7 times a day, I start writing LJ updates full of ideas and opinions and half-thoughts in an attempt to let them fully develop in to real updates, but 98% of the time I abandon the update in the middle of it because I either can't figure out where I'm going with it or I just get too darned long winded or I get stuck for a word to use (like I did just now) and I end up just closing the window, losing the entry/thought forever because I just don't want to keep dedicating brain power to completing it.
So as of right now, today. as of this post right here, instead of closing/deleting the unfinished entries, I'm just gonna go ahead and post them. This may mean lots of incomplete thought and abruptly ended sentences, but I don't care any more.
The thing I loved about LJ some 11 years ago when I started it was that it gave me a place to externalize my internal voices. All those funny little thoughts I had, al those ponderous notions, all those brilliant revelations... I could now jot them down so they were *real* instead of just being in my head!
So now here I am, promising to get the stuff out of my head again, and hoping that the Twitter/FaceBook brevity conditioning doesn't set in. No limits, no boundaries, all the letters and words I could ever want to type out are FREE, no additional charge for going over the limit!
