A person should be able to escape from their own head once in a while! For some reason writing seems to bypass the part of my brain that doesn't work for talking or thinking sometimes. I'm pretty sure it is because I can actually see the straight lines that thoughts are supposed to go in. You would think that would apply to reading too, but I don't see straight lines when I can't read because the words jump around on the page. When I am writing, I see the line of words as an actual line. If I try to read them they jump. I wish I could read too. A person should be able to escape from their own head once in a while!

But mostly because I want to avoid the emotional states that are feeling loud. Writing always just makes them louder. Maybe I'm doing the wrong kind of writing.
