I meant to post this right after I read it the first time but got distracted.
From Allan:
If, as you live your life, you find yourself mentally composing blog entries about it, post this exact same sentence in your weblog.
Most of the "life moment" posts that I mentally compose never make to the digital version. Part of it is that my mood may change, whatever happened may not seem as interesting later, or I just forget. Another part is that once I've composed my mental post I lose any desire to actually write it out. I never have been strong on edits and rewrites.
