I have two blogs. This one, where I
So, how do other people handle that? Do you let your s.o. read your stuff and just shrug it off? Of course, many of you never have a cross word to say about your lovers, and how great for you, so it wouldn't matter if she read your blog. But, for those of you who are in a similar situation to mine, what do you do?
One funny thing is that I can hardly get T to read my family blog. So, really, I shouldn't be worried! Right?
Here's the link to my family blog. Feel free to read and comment or ignore. I don't know why I am stressing about this. Do I feel ... deceitful? Sneaky? Less than open? I guess I am. Does it matter? Am I overanalyzing? Probably. Sigh. Anyway...

i don't keep mine a secret from anyone. i never write anything that i wouldn't want someone to read. (well i do curse sometimes...)
same with what i say outloud.
just makes life easier.
When my former gf and I met and began dating I didn't tell her about mine. I might have at some point but she found it in the interim. Not shocked, surprised, filled with wonder.
I try to be intentional, deliberate, and now that I know at least one co-worker reads, diplomatic with my posts.
Pretty much how I am in real life.
Still...there is a ranting place that is for me and me alone.
Yes, my partner reads mine because it's supposed to be about us. Sometimes, though, I wish I had a private blog where I could just vent.
It's the venting and ranting and rambling place that I don't want to give up...
Your family blog is now in my Reader--thanks for sharing that!
I think it's good to have a private place to vent.
G knows about my blog and reads it sometimes--usually when I ask her to, or when I tell her I've done a particular post. Otherwise, she's just not a big blog reader. I don't really worry about "venting" because afterwards, we usually talk about whatever it was that got be twittered. That's one reason I do like wordpress--you can have private posts if you REALLY want to vent!

Greg - it'll probably bore the pants off you, but if you are ever in Portland you'll have all kinds of useless local information!
GG - I've thought about the password protected posts, but it feels like waving a red cape in front of a bull. It says, "Honey, I'm writing about you and you don't get to read it!"
e--yeah, but it's not always about HER that I password things. Sometimes, I only want the laundry out just so far!

This is why I like Wordpress, I can write posts and set them to private so that only I can see them.
This lets me vent but keep it to myself. Later, if I've decided to change my mind, I'll make it public or trash it. :)
My blog is open to all, and Sara frequently suggests things to me to blog about. I have to keep things simple because I am a simple girl.
But then again, there are things I would like to share with my homies in blogland that I don't want to share with the fam... That is the trade off.
