I'm going nuts bottling things up right now. Not even important things; it just feels weird not "blogging." I could blame it on lack of time, but that would only be partially true. Really, I'm just uncomfortable with the snooping, and don't know what step to take next. I thought of taking my links down, but it's already too late. I guess I just have to accept that this is the internet and it was bound to happen. But that doesn't mean I have to like it.

  • Hey Crystal... I know this is super super late... but I totally forgot until now...
    Anyway, if you still want to know.. to link to a larger picture with a smaller picture... just use the same link for the link-image, and make the size smaller... use this code, where "www.url.com/image.jpg" is your image, and regular brackets are tag brackets:

    (a href="www.url.com/image.jpg")(img src="www.url.com/image.jpg" height="100" width="100")(/a)

    does that make sense?

  • That's awesome. Thanks a lot, Paul. Now I can play with that over the weekend.

  • it makes me feel bad for you that some situation is occuring where you would want to change your blogging style to protect something. Fuck it, do everything the same, it's your life and really there is no reason to feel vulnerable to anyone else for anything. We're all just sacks of blood and bone and piss and shit.
    If you use your blog to express your vulnerable side, it's your perogative. Don't let 'em bring you down and cut off your fingers.

  • Thanks a lot, skinned. I'm trying to get back to that point. It's so weird to spend most of your life struggling for the confidence to just be yourself, and once you make some progress, you feel like you need to clam up because "being yourself" gets you into "trouble." Your comment really helps me feel better. I may have only met you once or twice, but you seem like good people.

  • Don't worry...I won't be back...

  • A woman in town got fired for what she wrote about her boss on her blog. It has made me write less and edit what I write. I stopped enjoying it and it felt kinda pointless. I envy people who can say and write exactly what they feel. Be yourself and write whatever the fuck you feel like.

  • anonymous: Well, you've already gotten more than you needed from not only my archives, but all those links. I don't know why you would want to come back. It's not like I was "worried." But, I guess with my juvenile writing ('cause I think of myself as a "writer"), you might interpret it that way. I'm relieved. I thought that was clear in my post way back in August. I also thought I was clear in expressing my frustration at loving someone, but disagreeing with some of their beliefs or actions.

  • Repo: I remember hearing of that (or maybe another case). It sucks that you don't enjoy it as much now, but I guess we all have to exercise some discretion (which I failed at). I guess saying stuff about your boss is pretty stupid. I write what I feel because that's why I have this. Like skinned said, it's my vulnerable side. I understand different people interpret the words differently, but I always try to be clear, although, admittedly emotional.

    Thanks for the support. You could always get a secret blog somehow so you don't have to edit yourself as much, and only your friends can see it.
