My post this morning seems to have got people thinking? But that can only be a good thinkg, right?
The things that I said were not aimed at any specific person, they were just thoughts, I am not going to apologise for writing them, as then there would have been no point in it.
I think a great many of the people on blogland are themselves, see they dont need to be anything/one else do they? And I have met some of them, and I can quite honestly say that I would have known who each and every one of them was without having to be introduced simply by reading their blogs and chatting in comments.
As some of you so rightly pointed out, we all have personas we wear for different things, the difference between those and the disguises I refer to are essentially you are still you and I am still me even while wearing them. Look at it in this way, at work you wear the work persona, it is still you but the way in which you act is different because it is work, you dont tell your work mates all about your life, no more than they do.
I have been called the Ice Queen, a cold hearted Bitch, more times than I can remember, yet when I once stated that to my friends they were astonished that anyone would think that of me. And yet I can be, and thats because I hide that part of me from strangers, yet at work it often comes out. I am essentially a warm person, but that often gives people the wrong impression and makes them think that I am a push over. I am very far from a pushover, I was once, but too many people pushed and too many people took advantage.
And if you understood one word of all this, you are a brainiac
And if you actually read this far, well done that makes you as nuts as me ![]()

LOL, I got to the end, and I understood everything you said...not a brainiac just a fellow traveller...I've been called a few things in my life as well less than complimentary in my books, and they hurt like hell because not me inside, but probably did give some people the impression of being too straight speaking or a know it all when trying to help somebody...big hugs...
