Excuses

So, here's why I end up not blogging on these un-restricted blogs: I can't decide on my audience, and then I get worried about coworkers, etc. reading. It happened to me before, and it was a blog they never would have stumbled upon had I not left a bookmark on my computer when I moved to NYC. It was awful to think people I was work-friends with were sort of spying me. Thinking back now, they probably didn't realize that it was so wrong. I'm sure I felt caught out there Harriet-the-Spy style for complaining about the IT guy who kept asking me out. (My replacement dated him for years after I had warned her about him.) I didn't know they were reading it until a friend with a linked blog told me about it months after I left. That was strange, too, that my ex-coworkers had been even so bored by their own lives that they read my friends' blogs.

Well, we'll see where this goes. Now I'm off to a doctor's appt. and then to meet up with a potential cat-sitter. (Just a funny note: I think it's appropriate to get the old cat puke up from under the bed in preparation for this meeting, but I'm leaving the porn in the bookcase.)
