to be or not to be . . .

This blog is experiencing technical difficulties.

Meaning, I'm the technical and I'm the one with the problems.

Wait, that sounds full of drama but that's not what I mean. It's more along the lines of deciding what I want to write about. What kind of information do I feel comfortable writing about? How much of my life do I want to put out there? Where are my limits when it comes to over-sharing?

So far, this blog is my own personal diary. I think I'm pretty much the only person that reads it. I guess I could do something about that, if I wanted to. I could post comments in other blogs. Link to other blogs. Join web-traffic-generating sites.

I haven't done any of that, though, and in all likelihood, won't. So, this is just my little corner of the Interweb.

Still . . . the Internet is a strange place. One wrong - or right - word and I could have hundreds of readers. Maybe for the right reason, maybe for the wrong reason. Either way, most of me is uncomfortable writing anything that could come back to haunt me. Or cause my friends or family to be out-ed when they don't know anything about this blog.

And, let's face it . . . I'm a person of strong opinions. I have a tendency to say what I think without running those words through the 'should I say this?' filter. My opinions might are bound to cause an adverse reaction eventually. I guess that goes in the 'be discreet with personal information' column.

I guess we'll see what it evolves into. Look at me . . . living life dangerously!
