apparently, the attention spans of people who read blogs and comments is very short. i have been told this before, that my postings are way too long, and i was told again tonight by my Cousin, who i asked for suggestions.

"hey Cousin, how's my blog?"

*Cousin makes face* "it's good, but it's a bit...uhhh..."

"what?'

"uhhhhhh..."

"?"

"long. your posts are a bit long. you go through lots of tangents."

*sigh. yes, i am the long-rambling, tangent queen. a lover of parentheses and dashes, to illustrate tangential points. i have to cut back...

but i still refuse to use the shift key dear Cousin...
