I noticed today that I have a blog, a 'diary' which i call a journal and a writing notebook. Why do i have all of these things? The writing notebook is obvious, because i went to writing camp and its on the go writing for when im not around a computer or internet. Poems, thoughts, lists, tidbits. But.... a diary and a blog? arent they one and the same? Or whatever that expression is. I thought about it. A blog is an online diary that nobody knows who you are (or do they?) and youre supposed to put your feelings and thoughts down and let them be known to the world because what anyone has to say is important. But... I dont want random ( or not so random) people reading about my struggles and shortcomings and every problem, petty or no, in my life. So, the need for a diary and a blog. Sorry if some of you feel like youre being cheated out of my thoughts. Youre not, trust me! I go to my blog more often than my diary, anyway. And I do sort of prefer pen and ink for a first draft of poems so there is not help for that. But... If i enjoy some of my poems enough, I will type them for my blog! And now, good night! It's going to be another early morning....
p.s. Yes, I did take that picture. Yes, I was there :)
