Paths and journeys

?% | 1

I started out to say one thing, but like most of the stuff I post it ends up being way too long for anyone to actually read.
Those who manage it, and actually finish it, I'm amazed by, when I'm done writing, I can hardly finish it.

I write thoes kinds of posts that belong as chapters in some book lost in the back room of some antique store.
So I hit the delet button and hopefully this will be shorter.
We can only hope.

It looks like in a couple of days I'm going to be gone for a while.
Nothing bad.
I'll probably get to post a couple more times before it happens.
so this is just a heads up for who ever reads my stuff.

If your having trouble sleeping, just pull up one of the longer peices and I promise as your trying to wade through it will have the effect of a text book on you.
You'll sleep like a baby. :)

You'll know when it happens because I won't write any new posts. :)

It only looks that way because your standing on your head.

Journal

It's the truth you do write thoes kinds of posts that belong as chapters in some book lost in the back room of some antique store, but as long as you enjoy it you should keep up with it. Maybe one of these days i'll have one of those night's where i can't seem to fall asleep so i'll sit down and read one of your journey's.

Journeys

:) love the name. Could mean anything, from going through the effects of metapause, to how you see your sexual prowess, to be an hothead when you get angry...oh the possiblities. :)

There is alot. A few that I deleted in a moment of something that has passed.:)
We all do things sometimes that seem a little crazy sometimes.
And that's not a bad thing, going crazy on occasion.
Gives one the opportunity to wear thoes clothes hanging in the back of your closet that you wouldn't be caught dead in if you were in an otherwise sane moment. :)

Re: Paths and journeys

Wendy, sorry for planting the seed that your posts are far too long for me to read. That was a selfish thing to do on my part. Plus if I wasn't so GD lazy I would not have had a problem in the first place.

No worries

:) No worries. I've been told reciently that I should write a book. *grinning* The road you found your self on one day while you were busy trying to get to the mall...grinning.

Actually, all thoes long wandering thoughs are due to my head being on overload most all the time. It wasn't a selfish thing to do or say my compadre, I just talk too much. :)

I looked the other day, and it says that I have 200 plus journal entries. It's 40 pages of my thoughts.
Along with that on a dc I have I have hundreds of poems that I've written.
Along the way I've burned probably 30 hardcopy journals...I just have too much to say.
About everything, because everthing is amazing to me.
I can spend hours, and have spent hours getting lost in mudane things and pondering and wondering and just letting all kinds of thoughts grow.
then I have to write...:)

Painting is the same way. It's all alot like living in Jolly Green Giant land all the time, or neverland, and I've just come to the conclusion that it's all a bit much for most people to just sit down at one time and try to read it all, or see it all.

I generally do a once over for missed peices or spelling errors, which I'm horrible at.
Going at the speed of thought can really screw up your ablity to spell correctly, or use correct grammer.

But you already knew that. :)

So, no worries. :)

What I'd like to see here on NAO is the ability for a user to download all of his journal entries as a PDF file, or maybe just one large HTML file. Lots of the raw stuff I write is only here and if NAO died, so would those thoughts. The only things that I write outside of NAO and the post them here are the poems. But as you said you have over 200 journal entries and that would be something worth downloading and getting a complete record of.

I get lost in music more than anything, can't say I get lost in writing because music seems to come alot easier than writing for me. I really have to sit down and immerse myself in it to even get started. That is usually done with removing myself from the ordinary places I go and then listening to my favorite music and going into a type of trance so to speak where all I do is think about the writing and then try to put something into written form.

spelling errors, which I'm horrible at

Yes, you definitely are! Haha.. =)

Saving the files

?% | 1

I've taken to writing off line first, and then posting, and I've gone through and saved alot of what has been written into my files.

but your right about wanting someway to save all of it, just in case.

I are a bad speller, isn't I. :)
