Anonymous No Longer…

It has come to my attention in a recent comment that there is at least one person out there who knows about me and my friends in real life. I’m deeply saddened about this because that individual did not choose to tell me who they were, but made sure I knew they knew exactly who I am, and who all my friends are that I blog about. The comment wasn’t in any way offensive, but I do believe it was meant to get a rise out of me. They knew all of my friends’ initials and whose nicknames belonged to whom.

I just want it to be known that this blog was meant to be my diary. I want to be able to blog freely and without censoring myself. To that individual or to any other readers out there who may know me personally, read at your risk and I do value my privacy. I know that sounds ironic since this is on the world wide web, but if I wanted people to know who I was, I would use my real name. I love this blog and I love the friendships I’ve developed with my readers. I don’t write maliciously but this is also a safe place for me to be able to vent. I feel slightly violated and I feel like I may never be able to write freely again. This breaks my heart because I have so many amazing blogger friends and I feel that this blog has helped me grow in so many ways.

I will continue this blog, but right now I am feeling really creeped out and sad. I don’t want any of my friends to read this blog and take my words the wrong way. Whenever I have written about my friends in any negative or venting context, the problem has been addressed with them personally beforehand or shortly after writing out my feelings. Anyone who really knows me and some of you readers even, know that I am a straight shooter and I say what I think, blog or no blog. I don’t use this blog to hide, but I do like maintaining my privacy and the privacy of my friends. I just hope I can continue to do that in the future.

Re-building a Relationship with my Father

I always said I was too busy. It’s all very “Cat’s in the Cradle.” I don’t want to get into it. -Chandler, Friends

First I just want to thank you all for the heartfelt comments. I know I haven’t told you all the entire story of my father and the drama with my step mom (here’s a little backstory if you’re interested), but from your comments I can tell you all know where I’m coming from. I want you all to know how much it means to me that I have your support. It means so much! Last night’s dinner actually went far better than I expected. (more…)


The Geek Conference

Roy: How do you know about this site?
Moss: Oh, I’m a member.
Roy: Really? You do the whole Lonely Hearts thing?
Moss: I’m a 32 year old IT-man who works in a basement. Yes, I do the whole Lonely Hearts thing! -The IT Crowd

Thursday and Friday I was given the “opportunity” to attend an IT conference. Basically it’s a conference full of lectures on products and software companies want us to buy and sell to our clients. It was hands down the most boring thing I’ve ever been to, and I’ve taken Organic Chemistry. (more…)
