rabble rabble rabble.



I have a question for you all: do you enjoy the rambly nature of this blog? My entire life I've had a problem with succinctness. With being concise. See? I said the same thing twice. Once I wrote a 15-page paper in elementary school and my teacher told me she fell asleep reading it because it was so long. I think, if I become a journalist, my editor will have his or her hands full cropping my stories to their maximum length. Even in college, I never had a problem meeting page minimums...I had a problem going over page MAXIMUMS. I could never have Twitter for this reason. What's the character limit, 150? Egads.

It's not that I have lots of different things to say, really. It's that I like to think all my ways of explaining a singular point help illuminate it a little better. But too often, people get bored.

SO WHAT I MEAN IS THIS: Does the length of my posts detract from them? Do you want more short and snappy summaries? More pictures? More outfit posts? More politics? More...puppies?

Let me know. In the comments or in my email. acintins@gmail.com. Oh, and let me know if you want to be on my blogroll as well!

I love reading your blog daily because you are so authentic and intelligent and it comes across in your posts.

I don't think you should shorten anything if it detracts from your personality shining through.

p.s. can I be added to your blogroll, please. :)

You're probably the only blogger that I take time out to actually read your entire posts. I happen to love how you explore one topic in and out! Don't stop! :)
