stuff that bugs me (+ stuff that doesn't)

“they’re watching my every sound”

This is very weird. I am finding myself having to watch what I write, carefully calculating each word. Knowing that everyone is scrutinizing every word, trying to figure out if any one sentence is about a particular person, is … draining. Entries may be light until I figure out how to write anything funny or interesting about my life without actually writing about my actual life.

I should be better at this by now, but … I am without words.

Man, do I know how that feels.

Exactly why I didn’t blog until I began working at home. Now, the only living beings I am likely offend are strangers (shrug), my cats (who don’t care, since we all know cats couldn’t give a shit) or my hubby (who knows my brain, and is too busy to read my blog much anyway).

Wish I had some advice, but I don’t.

thanks, guys! i guess i’ll get back to random “stuff that bugs me” instead of “this is what’s happening in my life” stuff.

I’m here mostly for the photos, so you’re not rid of me yet. ;-)

hey v, i’ve found it’s easiest to write about stuff in your life, but make sure 75% of it is made-up. then people won’t have any idea what to believe and will eventually stop reading your blog.
boom, problem solved!

j/k. i think you should write about stuff that bugs you AND about your life. the truth must be heard!

This post is about me, isn’t it?!

In all seriousness, I try to refrain from writing about the people in my life, unless it’s something about them that made me laugh (in a good way).

Everything else is the stuff of private journals and drunken rants.
