I still haven’t posted about my work adventures last week. I’m not sure I want to. I try to avoid being negative in my journal. I don’t want to bring anybody down, and I don’t want or need sympathy. Besides, I realize that a lot of people don’t want to hear every boring detail of my life. For my part, I love the “boring details”. I think of you guys as my friends, and this is what conversations with my friends usually consists of.
e.g. What are the major and minor happenings in your life? How are you feeling and Why? [aka What’s up?]
My heart has been soaked with gasoline and stomped into a filthy rug until the static ignited it and there is nothing left of my emotion but a cinder. [aka Not much. He didn’t call, but whatever.]
So...
Be A Friend. Don’t Pretend.™

However; out of consideration for those of you who do not have the time or inclination to read my more lengthy detailed posts [and I don’t blame you in the least], I will make appropriate use of cut-tags.

I take it you meant the gasoline soaked heart was the other conversationalist. But it sounds like you have probs. Well, some people like to rant. Some never say a word. Some make trivialities into these tremendous, earth-rending crises and don't care about anyone else's troubles. All roads lead to them, in their book. :p I guess you're a "never say a word". I'm not far off from that, myself. Let's face it; there are a lot of people out there you simply can NOT trust with even the smallest painful experiences in your life. But, sometimes, you have to bleed. Or else you internally combust. Still, share only unto your comfort level. You can never tell who is watching, and this internet-thingey is hardly private.
My private credo is to try very hard to post negative info if it only indicates me by name. I don't like hurting people, even if they've already done unto. But some times, things do fall thru the cracks. Just be open to apologizing for yourself, when you overstep your bounds. Best one can do!

As you well know I want details. Damn it!

You told me to go ahead and be negative in My journal, and I feel exactly the same way...don't want to bring others down, don't want or need sympathy (even though I take it when offered. *rolls eyes at self*), don't want to bore people, but you said yourself what are journals for if you can't post details about your life if you have the urge (or something like that).

Please tell us all about it and *Hugs*. I hope you are okay.
