I've been thinking about the eventuality of not writing on Joeuser. Now, I'm not saying I'm planning on this happening anytime in the near future, but recent events made me consider this.
Firstly, where the hell did everyone go? If you check to my blog list to the left, and look at who's not posting lately, it seems as if everyone is taking a break. Which may be the kiss of death. The pros to this, though, is that I'm actually getting an opportunity to read other people's stuff. I've checked out a lot of regulars stuff before, but had a list of people who I'd check out on a regular basis. Now that they're not writing, I've got more free time to go and explore. I have to admit feeling a bit of shame in not noticing some of the writers here earlier... but it's been great checking them out all the same. The cons are that I actually am missing people. I hope all is well for them, and realize how much I looked forward to hearing about their lives. Dig?
Secondly, I realize how much of a girly-girl I've become. Basically all I've written about lately, is my crush at work. He's a spectacular friend, but I think that I'd be pretty damned embarrassed to let him read some of this stuff.... after googling my name and last initial, which, incidentally is also how I sign papers at work, it turns out I'm not as discreet as I once thought I was here. I know I haven't talked shite about anyone in particular, but I'd hate to be confronted about this blog. It's my private journal, even though it's posted online. I know it doesn't make any sense, but I thought I'd be pretty safe on an American site. Maybe I'm being a bit paranoid but lately, I can't help but notice how honest I am about my feelings. Not a bad thing, but also leaves me open for confrontation. And I don't do that well at all.
Thirdly, all good things come to an end. So they say.
