Embargo
I'm revisiting the conversation I had on my blog some time ago about what areas of your life you blog about and what you leave alone. The last time I had this chat with myself it was because i was all talkin' about gay sex and open relationships, only to discover that Hamish's mom reads my blog. That was a bit odd, but I got over it. It wasn't like i described the damn sex. But it got me thinking about things. I've always said that the only thing i wouldn't blog about would be the relationship. Just because Eric reads the blog, and so do our friends, so I don't want to bitch about him here (not that I am bitching sweetie!!!) and not take it up with him.
I hate passive aggressive stuff, and as much as sometimes one needs to decompress about life, I don't think it's fair. The other area that I've recently become wary about is work. Since (as you all know) my blog was discovered by someone who used to work at the firm, I took it down for fear that the rather obvious URL would be found by anyone with access to google and too much time to spare. Which is why its here and not there now.
But by this route, I'm not going to be blogging too much, no work, no relationship, etc etc. I'm not sure that anyone wants to read about what movies I saw or what book I'm reading (the latest Harry Potter if you must know). I was reading another guy's blog recently, and he does talk about 'stuff'. I read Joe's blog, and I think he's talking about 'stuff' but I don't know how much anyone wants to read about on here. Partly this started out as being an opportunity to just write, and get in the habit of writing again. Which is good. but what I write tends to be personal, or at least about stuff that's going on. But now that a bunch of people i know are reading this i have to be wary about what I say about them. I mean you wouldn't want me talking about you now would you?
So I don't know. Should I move my blog back to my homepage and then just skip writing about work? Let me know what you think. As for blogging about friends and family, well that's another story now ain't it?
