You guys ever go into mental lapses from time to time? You know how when you're really tired or have been awake too long (or both) and your brain shuts down all but the most basic functions? It happens to me on occasion and I seem to be suffering from that phenomenon at the moment. I was going to make an entry about something I wanted to do previously but I didn't because at the time, I forgot what it was I wanted to write about. And now I can't, for the life of me, recall what the hell that topic was. It's like I have amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I know because I've forgotten this before.

Someone recently complimented me on my style of writing after digging up an old movie review that I wrote ages ago. While I was flattered, I can't help wonder how it is that people would think my writing is worthy of any or of praise. My (for lack of a better word) "style" isn't so much a style or method but I simply write the way I talk. The words I put on paper, at least to me, don't seem very different than the words I use when I speak. Well, they don't seem different once you ignore my occasional verbal errors of stuttering, slurring, odd pauses in mid-phrase, the way I fade out at the end of a sentence, and the incoherent mumbling.

About that mumbling. Since my writing mimics my speech patterns, I should point out that the reason why you can't always hear me is because I'm talking in parenthesis. (I hope this clears things up.)
