    your anecdote about your divorce made me laugh out loud.
I'm glad you laughed!!
    repeat until I find what it is I want to say
I agree with you about writing -- sometimes it is only by writing and rewriting we find out what we want to say.

In the past, if people did not understand what we were writing (e.g. letters to the editor, requests to the boss or landlord, etc.), they would throw our letters out. We now have amazing places like Hubski where people can quickly reply and say "What do you mean?" -- That instantaneous response used to be limited to face-to-face conversation.
