Dear all,

This blogging thing has been wonderful for me.  I can write to my heart’s content without feeling like a pain, but apparently blogging comes at a price:  I cannot keep anything too personal hanging out there in cyberspace.  Not like sharing my preference in underwear isn’t personal, but no one can hunt me down, tie me up and force me to wear shoes that pinch until I tell them everything I know about furniture placement, based solely on the fact that I’ve written I wear thongs.  Sadly, by using our names, I leave our family vulnerable.  I will, going forward use simply our initials and will go back and edit my previous entries.  For friends, especially in England, I may use made up names if I am feeling clever (For instance, the double barrel name Mr. Posh-Wanker immediately springs to mind when I think of the Headmaster at the senior school.).  I hope this all doesn’t become too distracting.  I think it really bites, to be honest, but since my whole life I have attracted the unsavory/stalker types (and, God knows, I am the first to admit they all are generally good fun at first…) it just makes good sense to be a bit prudent. I’m all about good judgment.

With love from England,

T-Ann
