I particularly like reading my own writing because I can always follow it very easily. And when I go back and read something that I wrote a year ago (say an old post and an essay I had to write), I can always remember what I was thinking when I wrote it. It's like taking a snapshop of my personality and imprinting it onto a paper or a string of digital bits (depending on the medium). Is anyone else like this, or am I completely insane?

I stopped blogging a while back, but I tend to go back and read them once in a while. However depressing they may be, I could explain it the same way you did - my writing was so concise and honest that I really remember what my thoughts were when writing it.
