Hahaha I love writing, and then deleting late night inadvisable LJ posts.

*cackle*

Reading them back to myself reminds me what an Emo nerd I can be when my brain is left to its own devices.

Ahhhh, thats the wonder of the written word. I'm glad the Intenet has strangely been the catalyst for a billion otherwise unwritten diarys.

Thoughts seem to have to stand up against far more stringent checks and measures when caligraphated all over something.

The number of times I've thought and felt something with every vibration of my essence, typed it out, only to notice that actually, its not really that important and that I should stop being such a whiney girl and focus on things that matter in life.
(And yes, I'm talking about posts I've deleted, not the ones that are still there. Think how bad some of them must have been considering the ones I let through!! Although I do let the odd introspective whimper through the net for some reason. *chuckle* Finger hovvering over the delete button, then visciously not deleting. I'm sure its a form of digital self-harm.)

Assuming I'm not an alien, and other people encounter this phenomenon when they've typed an anguish out and they read them back and realise "Oh my god, I'm such a twat!"

Think of the number of posts made a day.
And so the number of those where the writer must have realised the things that were weighing most heavily on their mind were so inconsequential. So lacking in the very real substance of so many of lifes legitimate concerns. Like sustenance, security, stability...

Its amazing that LJ is doing this. This ridiculous podium, most frequently used to broadcast to the world which Thundercats character you are most like, or whether you're feeling melancholy or cheeky!, is probably the saviour of much Karma, worldwide!

Who'd have thought the internet, such a potential eroder of braincells, could so casually do so much good, by making idiots like me more aware of themselves?!

Dude, fear not, i look back on my posts DAYS later and think WTF?!?! Problem being, i cant be arsed to delete said posts, but it's ok, only a few people actually read them. :p


But it's all getting stuff straight in my head and often hleping me see the bright side of things, so it's good to write it all down, even if you just delete it or make it private.


Oh and we HAVE to do drinks soon dude. HAVE TOO!!!

I don't think you are an idiot, I think like most people when you are a bit down you reach out, irrespective of medium. This one *points to tahintaweb is easy to use but difficult to fully communicate in/with. Electronic text is unforgiving and hard edged it lacks the blush response, the self mocking laughter, the pitch shifting multilayered tones of the human voice. You're not a twat you're just human:)

post various forms of mental effluvia, erased them, or worse in a drunken fit forget all about them, have Amanda call and tell say "WTF??? are you mad! you have a business man!@$$%&!" Or nobody says a word... till one sees them at a show and they are about to try on a product then see a business card and state,"oh... you're Brute_Force aren't you? Well then." and then walk away.?

nope, Sorry, Have no idea what you are talking about, you must be the only one....

*cackle* Bad you!

Ahhh, life in the public eye. I have to really bite my tongue on some of the latex forums I post to. People take such offense at the most throwaway of comments. Some bloke got really irate when I pointed out that on his girlfriends shiny new website to teach people how to make latex clothing, she was doing it wrong. *chuckle*

Aw - I can't seem to get past staring at a blank page and thinking that no-one would be interested anyways... And it's almost a YEAR since I last posted so I'm beginning to wonder whether I'll ever feel the urge to write again. I just keep checking in to make sure that everyone is still as nuts as I am ;)
