Well, I was planning to start off with another topic, but as so often happens, events in and around my life changed my mood in such a way as to focus my mind on something else. This is a frequent occurrence in my life, and despite my large talent for self-coercion, I've learned something about when to exercise that talent. If I resist the mood, which I can do successfully, my previous one is still weakened, and I've wasted part of my all-too-finite store of self-control. But if I follow it, its impetus is such that I can gain much from the resulting state of mind.
So, when a strong mood hits, work, school, and LJ entries can go screw themselves. And one of my goals is to acquire a life in which such disregard doesn't come with immense risk.
