I don't fancy myself a blogger, and I don't really care about reading other people's blogs. Honestly, I find the whole notion of intentionally jotting down the intimate details of one's personal life for the voyeuristic reading pleasure of others, pretty self-conceited and repulsive.
So am I being a hypocrite? Perhaps so. In my defense however, this blog is not meant for people I know, or don't know for that matter, to read. My life is not a tabloid or an open page for public consumption. I just need somewhere to record my thoughts, and committing them to pen and paper where they might be found seems foolhardy - and I speak from experience.
The security of the digital environment where my entries will be safely hidden in digital oblivion is thus a truly comforting thought. Anomy has its merits.
Do I care then that no one reads my blog?
