Silencing My Inner Hiro

|

I deleted at least a dozen sentences before this one. How the preceding sentence survived the editing process is a mystery to me. Well, actually, it isn't. It survived because I temporarily removed the Backspace and Delete keys from my keyboard. Of course, if I really wanted to delete anything, I could simply hit Insert, navigate anywhere in this paragraph, and overwrite it. If you think about it, editing is like time travel. If you don't like how events (or sentences) are progressing, it's easy to jump back in time (up a couple of lines), and change them. It's the one place where we all can be a little like Hiro (from Heroes). Luckily, I thought of every possible way I could delete these words and took the necessary steps to ensure it won't happen. The fact that I had to remove a dozen additional keys (and the mouse) in order to silence my inner editor (my inner Hiro, if you will) was a small price to pay. My only hope is that I don't make a typo. That would bug the daylights out of me, which is why I'm typing slowly and carefully. I thought about intentionally misspelling "carefully" to be funny, but decided against it. There's nothing worse than being preductible. Agh!
