Fairly boring commentary from an oversensitive, emotionally demanding computer nerd (with a not-so brand-new 4-year-old, and two cats)

About not being here
I haven't been here (as in this blog) very much recently. Sometimes I feel I'm not really "here" in general -- doesn't mean things are bad or anything, but just that life is a little too intense sometimes and I feel the need to take a mental break from it all. There's also the contradiction -- I feel close to some of the readers here, but this is still a public space and there's a lot of things I can't talk about here easily, or at all. Blogs are interesting -- some of them spell our pretty much everything (or seem to, anyway), while others always have something going on between the lines. Sometimes the latter is true here. It isn't just privacy, a lot of my thoughts wouldn't make sense to anyone else.Posted by markj at May 10, 2003 10:33 PM

yeah, mark...i agree with you. most of the time, i feel like i'm telling TOO much...and then, other times...i realize...i don't tell a 10% of the story of what goes on in my life. it's not that i don't want to, they are just private things that i don't necessary need (or want) to share.
that doesn't mean i don't still enjoy the outlet and the interaction, though. i really do like my little group of blog friends, and they have been especially important to me during these times.
but, i understand the need to prioritize, as well. you just do, what's best for mark and his family...like you always do...and we'll still be here, in one way, shape or form.
;-)
