A Tiny ?Explanation?
Monday, September 5, 2005 at 10:23AM
I've noticed that since I closed v.1 I've been less that what I imagine you're used to and I thought I should explain that a little.
One, with the trip journal preparing to come to the fore, the address of the site has gone out to more people who know me, in different capacities than the friends who come here. So, there's that consideration - as Sipes put it (another one who calls me Jenny), "Jenny blogs about everything. Sometimes things you don't even want to know about her." So, I'm trying a little to limit that. Even though you may say that it's a journal and it's my place to work through things - I have also made the choice to expand it's purpose and I have to figure out what that will mean to the content.
Two, I've always written to myself (and you) as an ongoing story. You understand what I'm saying when I talk about Matt because you've watched me work through it (which he was aware of, whether he read it or not) and you understand precisely what I feel for him. You understand about the Munchkin, as well. It's been more a serial than a stand alone and I'm trying to get away from that as well.
Three, I've made certain promises to myself and to a couple of people in regards to what I'll say and won't say and I intend to honor those promises.
Being fair to that / them comes first.
(and you may have noticed I just took this bit out)
I know only that the truly real things, they stay. And stay.
And when they go, they stay.
As grief.
