This is one of those times when I come back to my page, read my last entry and ask myself, “Jiminy Crickets, what in blue blazes is wrong with me? Did I really write that drivel? The next time you’re feeling manic and unstable, maybe you had better keep the entry private for a bit before unleashing it.”  But then I think back to the entries I used to post for the first few months I had this xanga and figure, “I guess it’s ok to revisit my roots once and awhile.” Stephen King says a writer should cut 20% of everything he/she writes. You have to learn how to kill your babies. I don’t kill them though. I feed, obscure and/or elongate them. My page could probably benefit with some baby killing though.
