D.Y.M.K. Does Your Mother Know?
•   blogging   •   family drama   •   viewed 610 times •  11 months, 3 weeks ago

So now that my blog might be outed (thanks hon!) and my mother could very well become a daily reader I figured today was a good a day as any to introduce my new knitting forum. It’s called Yernin’ Fer Yarn.

Okay I kid. My mother does not knit. But she could be joining us here at dp.com very soon. I am officially as blog-outed as I can be without direct links going out in email. What if it happens? What if mom does become a regular reader? Hell. I think I am filtering now… wait till that day comes. Would I block her? Could I? Do I have to? I am not really offensive. I am out of the closet. No surprises there. Sure there are a few things I’d rather not have her (or my father) know about my life, but done is done. What could it hurt? So I have sex. So I lied as a kid. So I partied a bit heavily in my youth. So I almost dated a drug dealer. So I said that my parents splash water when they wash their hands. I really have nothing that I am ashamed of here. I just don’t want yet an other ‘known’ audience member to write for. I cannot picture myself publishing some of the things that I do knowing my MOTHER might read it. Part of me would want to delete my whole online existence. Part of me says SCREW THAT! I have put a lot into this for the last 4 (FOUR!!!) years. What the hell? I could block their IP addresses if they come. But that seems extreme. It’s my family.

I hate that I have to even consider this. OMG. The problems caused by one stupidly created email.

I think it’ll be okay, sweets!  I don’t know about your parents, but mine don’t really understand blogs at all.  (; I don’t know that they’d read mine regularly if they knew where it was.  My dad won’t even IM me.  He’ll just call me.  (;

A while ago I found out my dad has a blog.  It was bookmarked on his browser toolbar when he got me to look at something on his computer.  So I tried to visit it one time but it’s one of those private blogspot ones.  ... I guess I have to share mine before he’ll share his.... no thanks!

[Fabulous!]
Serious issue here.
If your mama doesn’t like it, she won’t read it.
The only family member who knows about my blog is the one who lives with me. That kind of bit me on the arse yesterday.
I go by the guideline, however, that I’m writing as if my mama were reading it.
Not that she was an angel, but still…
