A Decision

After the post of yesterday - and the comments, thanks - I've made a decision about this journal.

No, I'm not deleting it. Sorry.

Anyone who's ever talked to me in real life knows that I am pretty bitchy, but also pretty honest. Whether or not I act on what I think, I am aware of it, and I mean it. I meant what I have always said - I do not lie very often, I tell the truth, because it works quite well to get people to leave me the hell alone.

I am honest - whether I act on that is a different issue, but by and large, I don't lie to make you feel better.

In the spirit of that, I'm going to be honest in this journal. If I feel like discussing how your latest manipulation of me was ill thought out and failed, I will do so. Any resemblances to persons missing or dead is purely intentional. However, what that means is that you are obligated to tell me if you do not wish to be discussed here. I don't mean that I'm going to start naming names, or discussing things said in confidence. But I will discuss my response to them.

So, if you tell me that you're suicidal for example, I'm going to discuss exactly why I never have been, and why I don't like the notion, going all the back to the friends of mine who have died. I do not mean to hurt the people involved, and I'm not going to slam anyone. I am discussing my reaction to what you've said, not what you've said. And you can be mad at me if you like. Bear in mind, what I say to you is honest - I will never lie and tell you that dress doesn't make your butt look fat. But what I write here is honest too.

I think that's all I have to say on the subject.

In other news, I have a Cunning Plan for the game. HAHAHAHAHAHA!

I will be paying for this account too, so I can have ICONS! (No, there's no hint there, not at all.)
