Brain Vomit (An Introduction)

One of my greatest flaws in my writing style is my transitions-or perhaps my lack thereof. As a student, my writing was only as smooth as WARM SPRINGS at 2CFS (see the yampa river). I remember specifically working on one and it was spotted in one reading. I have a choppy thought pattern. I like to attribute it to my adult on-set, self-diagnosed ADD. Initially, I wanted to name my blog "brain vomit". Unfortunately or fortunately, depending on your view, the title had already been used. Honestly, you're still going to get it-hopefully in a more organized form. (not-likely though). Here's on of my favorite exerpts:
Brain Vomit (part2) 11-29-2007
o. . . this brain vomit is a bit different. so many things have happened in the past few weeks that something needs to be recorded. why? i don't know. actually . . . one compromiso to one sister missionary from Germany would do it. the promise to "remember" may have something to do with it. props to pte eyring. so many things have happened to help me remember my blessings and the power of god. pain medication is a powerful powerful thing. this power can be used for good and bad. it makes mean people. it causes a semi-irresponsible adult to pull a knife to show that he has "power". it makes unstable people even less stable even though in their own sight they have all the power in the world. sweet is the peace the gospel brings. one small blue pill can change the world. "xanax makes me grumpy (says the man with the six inch blade)" "this is the utah valley regional emergency room. the highway patrol asked us to call and tell you that your 12:30 appointment is not going to make it. he took a xanax before driving and there has been an accident." "will you marry me? it's sad to see so many women striving for other things in the world-actually, i just want you to be able to say that you have been proposed to under the marriage tree." "you served a mission-didn't you?" wow. there are so many experiences that so many people should have. so many blessings that are waiting for us. hmmmmmmmmmmm. i need to read and go to bed so that i can be worthy of the blessings that await me. sacrifice brings forth the blessings of heaven. is it worth it? only we can decide. we progress only as far as we want to. iguanadon. soft water in iowa. so many things to learn and so little time. progress now. this is when progression truly happens. with all the love that fills my heart.
