I also had a person find it and tell me which was honest and for awhile I did alter stuff, like sexual posts were toned down. I also explained that it's as open as a diary to me so to be mindful if they're easily offended. They prefer to talk to me via real life and don't read it very often. <BR/><BR/>I've shared my blog with a couple of exes because often I'm recounting past stories. They love to read about themselves. My daughter knows I keep a blog but she is not allowed to view it, nor does she ask.<BR/><BR/>Be careful what you write about regarding work, and I think the rest can be sorted.<BR/><BR/>cheers <BR/>xMs Smackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02921397003809292438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-289850469501737226.post-32725626339929511492007-12-06T17:05:00.000+11:002007-12-06T17:05:00.000+11:00Aaah.

I suggest anyone with a problem do the same.<BR/><BR/><B>Madam Z</B><BR/>Hey don't blame me for your courage! I still read you but have been a little self absorbed to comment much with most blogs out there.<BR/><BR/><B>Kitty</B><BR/>I love you confidence. I am forever rolling my eyes when I read your blog. You are so damn sexy my eyes just roll back in my head!<BR/><BR/><B>Unique Stephen</B><BR/>I know what you mean and are so right about the kids. That would make it very different for me too.<BR/><BR/><B>Jin</B><BR/>Thanks for reading still! I suppose I don't have a marriage to loose and I suppose if I was getting the matrimonial way, I could slip them the URL as a final check that they really know what they are getting involved with.<BR/><BR/><B>Betty</B><BR/>You are so right. It is probably our own fault in some way but we are very much subject to other peoples perceptions of who we are, what we should think and how we should act.<BR/><BR/>I tend to crash past all that and just try and have a laugh.Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15212665906591126286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-289850469501737226.post-89536351184861239882007-12-04T15:50:00.000+11:002007-12-04T15:50:00.000+11:00Oh Josh, I hide my blog from everybody I know bar ...Oh Josh, I hide my blog from everybody I know bar two real life friends who both live interstate and I don't have to see them in my day to day life. They also never comment on my blog, but very rarely they'll mention it to me in an email.<BR/><BR/>I used to have a blog that my family would read - cousins, aunties, parents, brother etc etc. <BR/>But oh dear, it got bad. A few things upset an old aunty and round it went till it blew up in my face. <BR/>I created a new name for myself and let me be as cheeky and rude and obnoxious as I want to..and I love it.

As for my own, apart from what jokes I put up, everything is true. Unfortunately, because of my location, I cannot write what I'd like to, because the powers that be who wear fanbelts & t-cloths would flick a switch & disconnect my ISP faster than you can drag on a shisha pipe!<BR/>I don't give a toss if I offend friends/family - it's my blog, my thoughts & scribes. There are times I would like to write more personal stuff, but I don't wanna toss away 31yrs of marriage, so I'll keep me lip buttoned :-)Jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06546956519928584352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-289850469501737226.post-61082862462446644742007-12-03T10:42:00.000+11:002007-12-03T10:42:00.000+11:00I don't write anonymously because I write for frie...I don't write anonymously because I write for friends and family. I know mum read me every day and I'm not as brave as Steph, so I have to self sensor. The other thing that I keep in the back of my mind is that I write about the kids who don't have a say in what I write but will one day be their own people who may not want to be attached to an online story of their lives, particularly if the next post is a political rant or salacious. If I wanted to write something salacious I'd have to send it to one of you to post on my behalf....unique_stephenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01137046158732977521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-289850469501737226.post-86603537958276453922007-12-02T15:11:00.000+11:002007-12-02T15:11:00.000+11:00if anyone who knows me stumbes onto my blog (that ...if anyone who knows me stumbes onto my blog (that doesn't already know about it) they will roll their eyes and mutter 'fuckin old ho bag...honestly.'<BR/><BR/>then they will bookmark it and read it every day cause it is SO FABULOUS.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-289850469501737226.post-10189601631909269762007-12-02T14:38:00.000+11:002007-12-02T14:38:00.000+11:00The thoughts you have posted here really hit home ...The thoughts you have posted here really hit home with me. I am fairly new to the whole blogging thing and am finding my way slowly and with difficulty. In the beginning, I thought that everything I wrote would be anonymous, so I let the shit fly. It was great fun getting comments from people on the other side of the globe, whom I knew I would never meet...especially you Australians, because you seem so wonderfully free and non-judgemental. But because I couldn't keep my big mouth shut, I told people I whom I actually KNOW about my blogging, thinking that they couldn't find it if I didn't give them the actual address of said blog. WRONG! So now I've gotten all shy and retarded about the whole thing, and just write boring stuff that gets no comments.<BR/><BR/>But you, Josh, have given me a bit of courage. I love your remarks about "turn(ing) off the mouth/brain filter" and letting "the raw thoughts cascade through" you. Also the part about the diary and the caveat, "read it at your own risk." <BR/><BR/>So...starting tomorrow, that mean old filter is going on the trash heap!Madam Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00136166772469538966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-289850469501737226.post-63139573357664335642007-12-02T13:55:00.000+11:002007-12-02T13:55:00.000+11:00People you know offline who read you will either l...People you know offline who read you will either love it or hate it. I've found theres no in between.<BR/><BR/>My family in general don't like what I write and tell me so. Except my sister who has a "mommy" blog of her own. My friends for the most part are great about it. They know anything they tell me may be used as blog fodder and are mostly ok with that.<BR/>I have had one or two get pissed off with what I've written but I couldn't give a rats and told them so.<BR/>Don't like it. Don't read it. It's quite simple really. ;)Stephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09486157834509821905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-289850469501737226.post-78095645447142354592007-12-02T13:27:00.000+11:002007-12-02T13:27:00.000+11:00I don't think I know you. :-)I don't think I know you. :-)Emhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02777565909515119985noreply@blogger.com
