Someone peeked over my shoulder yesterday at my Gmail account, and was surprised that I had 193 draft emails in my email account. (What a snoop.) I really couldn't explain why I even have that many drafts of unsent messages. Are they messages that I meant to send, but forgot? (probably) Are they emails that I started but quickly abandoned in favor of a better approach? (likely) Are they a commentary on my inability to get anything (especially an email) done in a quick, linear fashion? (most definitely)
At any rate, that giant pile of unsent, incomplete messages made me think of all the forgotten posts I've started in my blog and abandoned, for one reason or another. In an effort to clean up my half-written screed-strewn life (or at least my blog), I'm going to revisit, revise and publish some of my abandoned posts over the next week or two.
This is a long-winded way to explain that I can't be blamed for the varying quality of my blog posts this month (if ever). Consider it spring cleaning! And maybe you'll follow my example and also publish some of those half-written, quickly discarded posts that we both know you have in your blog too.
