on writing a blogpost where i basically just write my every thought as it comes

that was kinda fun. it feels like a proto-essay, like a rough draft in its rawest form. letting my brain make whatever connections it wanted, without trying to make them fit neatly together, narrating thought processes in some places, just letting jumps exist in others. 

like everything, it seems like the best approach is a balance. trust where my brain naturally brings up new topics that feel somehow connected to what i'm writing, but then actually do some investigating and finagling to see if it does actually fit well. 

it could be a fun exercise to take that proto-essay and make it more fleshed out as a future blogpost. but who knows if i actually will. 

that reminds me, i'd like to write about my attempt to bridge the gap between urge and action. probably not right now, but sometime. eventually.
