I wouldn't recommend going to work despite feeling icky. I really wouldn't recommend getting sick during really super busy weeks at work, but it is highly likely that the reason for the sickiness is, indeed, the stressful business of work.

Multigrain Saltines are surprisingly as good as, or possibly better than, regular saltines. Saltines are still, and always will be, the perfect feeling-like-sick food. And whatever someone might say, they are proven (fact! I say) to find one's lost voice. We shall see if the mighty Saltine can hang on to my voice through the night.

While I can still speak, there's a bit of a discussion elsewhere about secret blogs that has piqued my interest.

I maintain a secret blog. I talk about topics that are very, very personal to me. Topics that should not be discussed in any public forum, topics that I really don't want you and every one of my sister-in-laws to know, but topics that I need to write about and get out of myself. I run it under nom de plume and on Blogspot disconnected from my original Blogger account.

How about you? Do you run a secret blog, or one that is only available to specific individuals? If you do, please, by all means, do not post a link to it (thereby defeating the 'secret' aspect, n'est pas?), but why do you run a secret blog?

5 Love Notes

Honestly? None.

If i have something i absolutely need to get out of me, i've got other outlets i use, usually twisting it slightly to sound more like i made it up rather than something that actually happened. The problem I have with keeping a secret blog is that i'd constantly live in fear of it being tied back to me.

I have a secret "blog". It helped me get through some hard times in my life over the past few years. Not a single person I know in real life reads it, and there are probably only one or two people in the world who could read it and realize it was me.

I used to then I got through some stuff and ended up not posting anymore. I thought just writing would be cathartic but I found I also wanted some validation in the form of comments etc. It was an interesting experience.

My secret blog accepts comments, and even has a few dedicated readers. Just no one that knows my real identity.

No secret blogs for me. I have to agree with Jr....it might just come back at me.
