Finale

This thing has been around for almost four years. Four years! Personally, I can't believe it lasted that long. Guess there's something about blogging that I like.

I was pasting the last couple of entries into my backup, and I decided to run a wordcount. Just a hair under 90,000 words. That's almost a 400 page novel. And all those words came from me!

But the time has come for me to move on. I no longer like it here. Even though it does have the lovely little feature of, "Nobody knows it's here." I could use it as a confessional.

And I did. The entire time, even back when I was dating Mary, and she was the only one reading it. Because there was nothing that I'd hide from her. Everything that I wrote here? I'd tell her. Whenever there was some new girl at work flirting with me? I'd write about it, sometimes before I'd tell her, sometimes after.

But I'm at a place in my life where I'm not willing to give up anything about myself. I don't feel like sharing. At least, not these private thoughts. p>

I'm back to bottling these things up. Keeping them for myself. Not sharing.

This? This is goodbye.
