sorry for the inconvenience
People, people, I'm going through a terribly busy phase. There is piles of unfinished work, and more keeps arriving.
I considered just deleting the blog, because, you know.... at one point, I didn't see the point of it, now that I am too busy to gripe and rant about how terribly hard life is...
for instance, New Man is not only busy, he is going through a sort of low phase. He's been holding me at arm's length. I am considering getting drunk and slipping into sweet oblivion on weekends, instead of being lonely while the rest of the world is out having fun... and I'm waiting for a word from him - at least a message saying 'thinking of you'. But that doesn't happen.
The point is: my life, and my blog, is becoming repetitive and, and.. you know... annoyingly whiny. If this was somebody else' blog, I'd be leaving her anonymous comments saying 'get a life, woman! dump the blog, first... then consider dumping the man'.
So, I considered dumping the blog at least.
But there are so many lovely people out there, who've been telling me that I write really well... which was majorly gratifying. So, even if I don't update so often, I want to save all my posts, which I have not been doing from the start.
So, what I will do is this -
I will begin to go through the blog's archives in whatever spare time I have, and will re-publish them. Bring them up to a new date. This will serve a dual purpose.
One - I will save the post every time I re-post it.
Two - Those readers who really, truly love and adore me, will get re-runs of the episodes of my life. Like watching my blog-life in rewind.
Those who do not adore me or my writing, and merely come here for voyueristic pleasure, will kindly bear with the inconvenience until further notice, and look elsewhere for fresh fodder.

I reckon u ought to give yourself a spellcheck, before publishing the blog!
Because your starting line is fantastically original
Let me explain what I mean.....

People, I'm going through a terribly - phase. There is "PILES" of unfinished work, and more keeps "ARRIVING".
I considered just deleting the "BOG", because, you know.... at one point, I didn't see the point of it, now that I am too busy to gripe and rant about how terribly hard IT IS !
[End quote]
DC... r u in the loo ?
Besides, do u have a constipation problem ?
Sorry, no "hard feelings"
The "piece" was truly original !!
Never had I heard the "emotions in motion" so well !
Bye for now !

What does tht mean?
And by the way people genunly reading your blog still remember whatever you are trying to repost.So, I do not see any use of it.If you do not have anything to tell, you remain silent.Canary does not sing if she does not have a song in heart.
However, let me add one more thing .One's life, if dependent on others actions, is always miserable.I am a proof of that.
And since you enjoy nature, I am sending you this link.Hope this brings some cheer for the moment.

Take care.
Hi
Ive been reading your blog for a while now. Thou it is none of my business i seriously think you r in a dead end relationship that is not doing you any good. I know coz ive been there & the signs r all the same. I know u try to rationalise ur relationship a hell of a lot but hunny wake up & smell the coffee & get a grip on life before it is too late.
Normal healthy relationships r not supposed to make you feel like that & the way i see it - with all the wisdom that hindsight brings - its better to move on; saves you a whole lot of heartbreak, thou it may not seem that way at the mo.
Dont hang on to it coz u dont want to feel lonely & coz its nice to have a 'boyfriend'. Its just turned you into a moping,whining girl - or atleast thats the impression one gets from your posts. Believe me you can do better than Mr. IM TOO CONFUSED!
you dont love yourself much, hence you perpetually seek some external validation, and are wary of loneliness, instead of embracing it.
you use your blog as a garbage pile, you trivialise it by ranting and endlessly talking of a NewMan in your life, even if you find someone to love, you'll still be miserable, only consolation - use this blog like it were a museum, every post as a piece of art, channel your despair into good writing, instead of making it look like bubblegum diary entries. stop using this space as a recyclye bin.
Hi, I just thought I would tell you that you are right about your blog having become repetitive. I have a Bloglines subscription and I read all the older posts that you had republished without reading the latest post. It was only later that I realized that I'd been reading older posts. But before I got to the latest one, I was thinking, "Hmm, her writing has become so less depressing suddenly."
I guess you must have realized yourself, as you reread and rewrote those posts, that you are writing completely differently now - and may I add, much worse. I wish you would start writing like before because it was a pleasure reading you then.
tom cat, i have to thank u for the first good laugh i've had in ages
abhishek, this is my blog ad i've sick of it and therefore doing what i feel i must do; thanks for the poem, really liked it
anonymous 1, u r absolutely right! none of ur business
anonymous 2, go read what u've left as a comment. so much venom? why? it's just a garbage pile blog. don't let it distress u so much.
jade, well... writing is what it is. u cannot 'make' ur writing what it isnt.
hey tablemannered
i usually dont comment here but thought id say this
you do what u want , this is your space, and these (we) are your readers
i say cheers to republishing!
and i know you already knew this but anyhow....
Hey chiquita,
I like your blog and am happy that you won't delete it. AND you have a right to lead your life the way you say fit, no questions allowed. Good luck, wish you much happiness.
Love yourself first! try being selfish! it will really help you. and get over self pity
hey a new reader here but I still liked what u write. And I must say to hell with piece of art rubbish. Blogging is about putting down what u feel and that's what u do very well. keep it up. looking forward to reading more. hope u start writing..
"Those who do not adore me or my writing, and merely come here for voyueristic pleasure..."
That would mean everyone then - Nah , Just Kidding.
Reading your blog means much more than that,seriously. I see glimpses of my past or present relationships and when we look at things from the third person perspective theres so much we can change, for the better. I just wish you good luck for everything, whatever you decide, whicever path you take.
And whats wrong with some of the people who have left comments here? Stop being judgemental, people - Its the girl's blog and she can so what she pleases with it. If you dont like it, move on.
Dont stop..
:)
hey...my first time at your blog...my friend forwarded the link for a better understanding of girls might help in dealing with some crap that i dont need right now in my life...i have only gone through the first 4 months of it...i love it. sorta good to comfirm guesses...and sorta a crudish reminder of my own ineptitude in certain things...but again, i am falling for your blog!! if your blog was a book, it will be unputdownable. so, please stay alive...
