Something I read today: regional spending is up compared to metropolitan
Me.
I'm not entirely sure why I decided to title my blog ‘alison’. I have another blog with a pseudonym that made sense to me when I was 16, but it’s no longer who I am. My abundance of profiles and myspaces and hidey holes in different parts of the net have another nickname I gave myself around the same time I started Net Chatting. And so I continued along that same line of identity for the last six years and haven’t thought much about whether it really speaks for me. Until now.
I was speaking with a friend about our nick names and pseudonyms and secret identities online. Normally, as with my previous nick, I like to keep my nicknames close enough that I could respond to seeing it on screen subconsciously but distant enough from my Birth Certificate so I couldn’t be googled.
That may be what got me here. Googling an ex-someone for kicks is a stupid idea at the best of times. It’s even more stupid when they have a website dedicated to ex-someone and matrimonially-partnered-someone-else.
With me so far? Good, because the root of a lot of my issues can be centred around that part of my life.
I don’t particularly feel like penning down my thoughts on all that yet though. To pen it all down would be to make sense of it all. I’m not sure I can make sense of it all, or at least, I’m not sure I want to know the sense of it because then I’d have to deal with it.
And I’m just not in the mood right now..
I’m feeling slightly left of the middle tonight.
And all this time, I thought I was right-wing.
