Well… it’s true, they do!
I’ve been listening to Hoobastank – The Reason (the album I mean, not the song) quite a bit lately… not bad at all. Some of their stuff is kinda hard rockish in a poppish kinda way, if that makes any sense. But I really like that one particular song….
It’s come to my attention that a few people I know have found this blog by accident. That’s one reason I haven’t been using it much, among others… Now I’m not ashamed of anything that I’ve written here, but I do hope that the casual reader would realise that some of it is quite personal and I’d prefer it not to be spread around to every Tom Dick and Harry that comes along. Aside from the fact that most of it would be quite uninteresting to most people anyway, I’m sure there are far more interesting things to read on the web than some of the stuff I talk about here. Not only that, I found out through a third party that others were aware of it, which is a bit disappointing really… I mean, if you found out that someone had been reading your diary, wouldn’t you prefer they said to you “hey look, I’ve been reading this stuff you wrote” rather than telling their friends about it behind your back…. It’s not like I’ve ever given out the URL.
I mean the blog has a comments system… you can leave a comment there to let me know you’ve read it.
Anyway… the fact is that what’s done is done. I stand by what I’ve said and I’ll continue to blog… in all honesty I couldn’t really give a rats what anyone thinks any more, and if they think any less of me after reading my writings here, then they weren’t worth being friends with in the first place.
Everybody has their own problems… nobody else knows what it’s like to be me, just as I have no idea what it’s like to be somebody else. But what I write here is my perspective and nobody else’s.
Don’t really have much more to say other than that… I need to go and visit a friend this evening. Tomorrow is my birthday. I’m getting old. This week is going to be good, I can’t let it be anything else… in 2 weeks time I’m moving house, and another 2 weeks or so after that I’m changing jobs – finally got a rough date on when my promotion takes effect. Really life is pretty good.
But one should never forget what hard times you sometimes have to go through to get to the good ones… and never forget how easy it would be to fall back onto hard times with just one or two bad decisions, or choosing the wrong attitude when you get out of bed in the morning.
Never forget it.
