Just a little bit of privacy, please?

Well, I've finally done it... I've spent the morning going through this entire journal making every entry private. Every entry from now on will also be private.

Sorry to anyone using this journal as a source of entertainment, but that's not why I started writing it in the first place. I'm tired of my entire life these days being dictated by what I might have written here, I'm tired of having judgement passed on me because of what I write here, I'm just plain tired of talking about it and fixing the problems a few of these entries have caused.

I've had someone comment on how I seem to be using this journal as a way of communicating with people I should be talking to in person, and that's definately not how I intended it. There's more distance between me and some of my closest friends with every day that passes, something I'm not particularly happy about, and although it's not directly anything to do with this journal (actually very little, more to do with some big changes in my personal life these past months, but that's not a topic of conversation for here), I think if I'm going to make any attempt to fix it then this journal would be a good place to start. So it's gone...

The only person I intended to communicate with when I started this thing was myself...

Yes, I know, if I really wanted to write stuff down to get things out of my head, I really shouldn't have started a public journal on the internet. Well, you live and learn... I had no idea when I started this thing that it'd have the effect that it has done. I enjoy writing, it can be good therapy, especially during those particularly boring moments in the office (where pretty much all of this has been written) where you feel like blowing off some steam, in my case by writing my thoughts down. So, I'm going to continue writing it... but from now on, the only person who's going to see it is me.

Anyway, haven't you got anything better to do than read about my sad life?
