sorry

sigh. i just don't know what to do. l thinks i'm much like satan. she who must not be mentioned unfriended l after reading my entry last night. here i hoped i was being all mysterious by leaving the sappy parts out. guess not. and with l in the u.p., i have nothing to do but sit around and worry (homework? swatching? what's that? it's the weekend, baby!). worried over im, of course since i'm online. and with my cutting and pasting habit, here is the advice i got:

JamieAnne80 (3:06:16 PM): I can't really tell. It depends on the person, but I can't see anything bad in it. It's more the question how much you want to share and how much you think Laura would want you to share.
JamieAnne80 (3:08:56 PM): It's a pretty personal thing and I suppose that most bloggers struggle with the question how much they want to reveal. There's a fine line somewhere for everyone. I just saw that one of the blogs on my blogroll was closed because she found out that other people she knew knew about her blog and she wanted her blog to be a place where she could write about anything she wanted and felt that she couldn't anymore. So she quit. Kind of sad and also the reason why I both not tell people I know and still keep certain things out of my blog in case someone found it.

and z:
narknon (3:04:55 PM): caitlin you realize this is ridiculous right?
narknon (3:07:32 PM): i think that you need to have a life outside your blog
Rainheads (3:08:25 PM): you just only hear about it because i italk to you while writing posts. i actually do go to classes and work and talk on the phone constantly.
narknon (3:08:35 PM): yeah I know
narknon (3:08:44 PM): but you put stuff in your blog
narknon (3:08:51 PM): and then piss all sorts of people off
Rainheads (3:10:40 PM): no, actually, it's usally the same people i keep pissing off.
narknon (3:11:12 PM): okay

so i don't know. they're both right. and i do need to be carefuller. am enjoying swmnbn's blog, and so think it's a pity we can't be friends. i can't believe how much time and energy i have wasted on this. i need to shower. badly. i wash my hair today for the frist time since it was waxed- horray! hopefully i can stop sleeping in a scarf now. the little elastics have made it itch horribly, and itchy dreadlocks makes a person feel very unkept. and they are too disgusting to touch- slimy greasy. but they really look fabulous, all restrained and neatly trimmed. like anne lamott's topiary quote. do i have that up right now?
