Jun. 9th, 2002 05:06 amWell, I think I'm going to take some kind of hiatus from this LiveJournal thing. Somewhere in the last half-year I must have forgotten how "second-class" the whole practice of sharing distilled thoughts with strangers is. Better to know them in person, that way you have some measure of recourse to their tribal urges of impropriety and loyalty.
Funny how you can exchange contents of thoughts with someone, and it is as worthless and insubstantial as a fart in the wind. But grope someone in the back of a darkened club, and you'll be writing bad poetry to them for months. We humans are such ridiculous things.
If you folks don't see me around here, it's because I'm hiding in the back of a darkened club.

Date: 2002-06-15 06:33 pm (UTC)Only one way around it really, meet in person and have a chat somewhere, and find out how much the documented journal persona coincides with the projected physical one ...
Of course, there's no way to TRULY know what's going on in someone's head. That takes time. I wonder how much slower the relative timeframe is for knowing a person, if you spend the while time talking online versus hanging out in person ...

Yeah, my Saturday nights don't involve weird words but they're equally as uneventful.

Date: 2002-06-15 10:17 pm (UTC)If I was going to be phony, I should hope that I would be most successful at it, encouraging thoughts of a twenty inch waist, and the Jaguar that I have, and that my rich successful husband is constantly out of town, but lets me buy as many Fendi bags and Gucci shoes that my little heart desires in his absence. Despite the picture I am blonde, and I have little to do with my time, what with not working and all.
