flying-by-the-seat-of-your-pants

I've discovered that I'm quite good at initial, speedy thoughts, but if I try to explore them they disappear. As with so many things. So I write my blogs in about three minutes and then don't read them again until they're on my site (and often not at all). This means you get a lot of unadulterated crap with a smidgen of sense. I always wrote essays in the same way. Rush to get it all down on paper without checking facts or spelling and then just hand it in and hope for the best. I think it's indicative of my life. Spontaneity, some would call it. Lack of preparation is closer to the truth. I can't think of a useful application for it, except the flying-by-the-seat-of-your-pants thinking used by advertising industries (blue-sky thinking, they call it). Designing something, maybe? As long as there was someone to tidy up and sort out the practical from the impractical. I tend to act first and think later (if at all). Hence the state of my finances, I suppose. Ah well, it makes life more exciting if you don't know whether you'll be a pauper or a king tomorrow.
