My whole modus operandi is to spend hours boiling down what I think into as few a words as I think it deserves, then spitting them out as far away from me as I can. This can be a very painful process. Trust me – you’d be shocked by how long it takes me to write the 1,000 or so words that make up my weekly living. Me and the written language have a very co-dependent relationship, as they say out here.
Anyway, the idea of spooling out even more verbage here isn’t exactly the crazy temptation and fun hobby that it needs to be. Also, with regards to “by writing every day, you’ll become a better writer” saw; ptchui. Even if it’s true, I want to be a better person, not a better writer.
So my current task is to work out how to make this site do that: make me better.
When I started writing this entry, I thought it would be by giving me an outlet for code, not words. Now, I’m not so sure. Damn you, words!
