The Official 301st Post

There was some jackass that posted #301 over the weekend. I removed it before too much harm was done. Well, harm was done, but I deleted it. We'll leave it at that.

Perhaps this is officially post # 303. Because I've deleted one other post as well. But I put a post up in its place. So the count still remains 301.

It's easy to forget how public a forum this (blogging) is. When I first started blogging, I made a promise to myself that I would post anything that I had bothered to write - unfinished or not. This lasted several moths until I started to use "drafts" as a notepad. Just one more promise to myself out the window. Then, a month or two ago, I had to remove a particularly whiny, needy post. Sometimes the things that are written in the wee hours of the morning should never see the light of day.

For example, a single line taken out of a draft that I've finally deleted, because it never bore fruit. Taken also completely out of any context that could redeem it:

I've never eaten while masturbating. Not yet.

Over the weekend, I posted something that really did not need to be said. Confusion about someone else, another blog, another situation.

It's difficult for me to realize that you all are real people. I tend to think that people go into "cold storage" when I'm not around.

So. Cryptic as it is, I end post #301. I hope that it will be a reminder to me about what is acceptable for me to post, and what is a needless commentary on another real person's blog.
