Moving day

I used to have a blog on yahoo360°. I say used to have, but the truth is it still exists. I just won’t be writing much there anymore, hence the move here.
I saw several people complain that Yahoo was censoring them, but that certainly wasn’t the case for me. Probably because I never posted any provocative pictures or wrote anything even remotely NC-17. No, the reason why I decided to move the blog was due to a different kind of censorship: auto-censure.
I have all sorts of things going on in my life at the moment, mainly very good things. Unfortunately whenever I made even the briefest mention of this in my blog it hurt someone who was already hurting. The result was that I started pulling back, re-reading everything I wrote with one question at the back of my head: “Will this hurt her?” I never wanted to hurt anyone, so I figured the easier solution was just move the blog, change the title and guess that she won’t go looking for it.
The reason I have a blog to begin with is so that I can write whatever comes across my mind, without really having to give it much thought. When something good happens I want to be able to express that without rubbing salt in someone else’s wound. So here I am, starting another blog. It’ll probably be about as interesting to read as watching paint dry, but I can pretty much guarantee that any entry will be quicker to read than paint drying.
