I'll often go in and edit my posts after I make them, whether they're public or not. And, if I've written something awful that I later regret, I don't delete it. I make it private, so that I will not forget. I think my LJ boils down to something like 1/3 public, 1/3 private, and 1/3 highly filtered or directed.

Same here, though I haven't yet felt the need to completely privatize anything. Sometimes put something on a more restrictive filter though.
I also contemplate writing a lot more than I actually start to write. If I start to write something, I'll probably finish it (with a noteworthy exception from October still waiting for me to finish), and if I finish it I'm posting it.
This sometimes cuts me off from the world for hours, while I write something (complete with full referencing links!) that nobody else may care about.
