This one thing

January 30th, 2005

I have this one idea.

I tried to make it go away, but I’ve been having it for a long time now. It’s like, when you tell yourself that something isn’t going to work, but some inner voice keeps echoing back and saying, “Okay then. So anyway, about that idea we’re not supposed to be thinking about…”

And that happens to you all the time, every day. Eventually, you figure you should just listen to it.

I’m not going to tell you what this idea is. But here’s the way I think about it:

It’s like going into a gym, and blowing up a big, big, balloon, and then letting it go. And watching it fly around, all crazy, just to see what will happen.
