End of Chapter I

For anyone who read yesterdays Note, the main thing I hope you learned about this blog was that “I didn’t really think it through.” Now please take out a #2 pencil. It’s time for a pop quiz:

1) So just what is this Daily Notes thing?

a) A journal

b) A creative writing exercise

c) A penance

d) A secret diary

e) Other

Please, no cheating ...and Alana, no gum in class!

Answer Key:

Since (to my amazement) a few people are actually reading this, I’ve decided to  eliminate d. A secret diary. (ohhh, readership just dropped by 62%)

What I hope this blog will be is: e) A way to spend at least a few minutes each day actually “thinking.”  Thinking, instead of just absorbing the constant input of 24/7 television, radio, and computer media. Thinking instead of just responding to the constant demands of everyday life. Thinking just to think …and then writing it down, to make sure I actually did it, instead of just thought about it.

If you said e) give yourself a gold star!
