Open Mouth Insert Foot
Feb. 27th, 2005 09:26 amAfter replying to a comment on a board yesterday, a couple of replies to the post had me going back to see just what it was that I had typed. Oh it was embarrassing. What I had typed did not reflect what I had intended to say. I soooo wish boards had a delete key. I suppose that is what Preview is for ... did I use it ... no. As I told Keiliss, I type too much!
The post was to the nature of FB. It is what it is. Sometimes boards are not the proper place to post. I've written two items that I care about which will never be posted. It is not a comment on the boards or FB given there. Those two items are just not appropriate. One is written as a therapeutic exercise based on the death of my SO. It is intensely private and I'd hate to hear that someone enjoyed reading what was so horrible to live and difficult to write. Since I care about that one in a very personal manner, it won't be posted. No way. It is not for public consumption. That is what I meant to say in more general terms but did not.
There are authors whose work is just brilliant and I am very aware that any FB that I could give would not do their talent justice. The question is do you give FB even though it will sound pretty lame, or do you remain silent and hope they realize just how stunning their work is. I really don't know. I've done both.
That is all I'm going to say on this. I just wanted to clear up the mess that I made of yesterday's post. I hope that no one got ticked off or took it as petty complaint. That was not intended.
