You have way better discipline and habits than I ever will.

XD I don't know if discipline has anything to do with it - it's more that if I don't keep writing, I'll stay in this funk for a month or more, and then I'll drive myself crazy wanting to write, and all around it's just easier if I take the pressure off and give myself permission to write whatever crap I want without expecting it to be good.

I still end up staring at the screen and sulking sometimes, no matter my intention, so I'm not as good at this as I make it sound.

The problem is that as soon as something becomes familiar, we stop being careful.

No kidding. I've experienced that a little bit myself - I'm not as careful driving as I'd used to be or should be - but I can't imagine ever thinking I'm so in control that I could read, watch TV, or shave while behind the wheel (I've seen all three).

I'm so sorry to hear about your classmate and his brother, though. Did the driver ever come forward?

Anyway, glad to see you posting even if commenting suffers for it-- and vice versa, hee.

I know, I know, you've posted so many things I need to comment on - I am reading your journal, really, but commenting coherently isn't as easy as sneaking peeks at my flist between writing assignments. Will get to that soon - probably after the concert, once things have calmed a bit.
