I just received a very cute email thanking me for all my posts about writing and saying how helpful they find them—for, which, well, blush!—but wondering how I find the time.
It’s like this: writing about writing is way easier than, you know, actually writing.
Ha ha ha! For shame! 😀
omg! You are writing about writing about writing.
Is that even easier than just writing about writing?
patrick: Yup. Writing about writing about writing about writing is the best thing ever. Total piece of cake!
mmmmmm, cake! when will the madness stop?
…and by extension, *reading* about writing is even *easier* than writing about writing, which is easier than writing. Heh.
I dunno. I think readin about cake is easier than reading about writing about writing.
Unless, of course, the writing about cake includes a recipe with exact measurements, ’cause that can get to be some mighty tedious reading.
Eating cake’s the easiest . . .
. . . and writing a blog comment on a blog someone else wrote is easier than actually writing, too!
writing about writing is indeed easier than actually writing, but it’s not as easy as writing about someone else’s writing about writing (ie, commenting on a blog where someone has written about writing), which just might be the easiest of all.
except for eating yummy stuff, of course

(yes, i am procrastinating. i must stop now.)
patrick & justine: the cake is a lie! 😛
not cake. pie. pie is goooood.
my world has been flipped upside down b/c somehow the caps have weaseled their way back onto this blog. aaahhhhhh!! 😀
Rebecca: What can I say? I got bored. It’s been lowercase since 25 May 2005.
As the first person to notice, I should prolly give you some kind of prize. Several other people commented without mentioning the change . . .
Such are my surveillance skills that I did not notice until now that this post (and it’s comments) contained caps. Aren’t I just so very observant?
(And yet my first comment was caps-less, which is odd considering I even capitalize my IMs…)

ooooh, a prize! perhaps pie. pie pie pie pie pie! 😀
i have gotten too much in the habit of not using my caps. i don’t know if i can handle the switch back….
