Going Private

Finally figured out my place in the blogger world. I am not going to have 500 random followers. I am not going to make cyber best friends or join a group of strangers to form some sort of community. I am just as shy and reserved in cyber space as I am in person, I guess. I don't leave comments on the blogs of people I don't know or expect them to leave one on mine. In fact, I always get a little uneasy when someone I don't know starts leaving comments on my stuff. I thought I wanted to make it available for the world to admire, but I have discovered that I really don't.

I am just writing for me, my extended family, and a handful of friends who for some reason keep coming back to read. The people I care about read regularly, and many get posts automatically thru email. So if you are a mystery follower and want to keep reading, please leave a comment or email me or facebook msg me or whatever and let me know what email address you want me to send an invite to. I noticed there are about a dozen google reader subscribers, and I can't name a dozen people who I thought read this so that was interesting and I am curious to see if that many people ask for an invite. I think knowing that I am making a stronger effort to keep out the weirdos will leave me a little more freedom in my postings. And maybe I will actually update more often (maybe).

You have a week then the settings are going to private!
