Public Service Announcement
Contrary to "popular" belief, I do not write this journal for other people. While I may more than occasionally "address my audience" so to speak, the overall purpose of this Blog is as a place for me to rant, to rave and to collect my thoughts.

This is not a memoir, it is not a political or intellectual forum, it is not a plea for help or a cry for attention. It's just random... shit. Which brings me entirely to my point: you're here as readers because you want to be here. And you, if you've read long enough, you know I'm perfectly capable of intellectual thought, level-headed debate and the regular use of "BIG WORDS." Look, I can spell, I can use punctuation. I'm not all up in the "LyK OMGz 2dai we ALL wuz soooOoo DrUnk!!!1111<3 <3" In fact, I'd say that much more so than a large portion of the rest of the population, I am capable of holding a mature, adult conversation.

THIS BLOG IS NOT A MATURE, ADULT CONVERSATION.

I'm glad if you want to keep reading and I don't care if you don't. I will not a) stop whining or b) stop swearing for any readers friends, family or otherwise. This is my sacred space and I'm sure you have your own. This is the place *I* learn to cope with *my* feelings. It's not ABOUT YOU.

Therefore, if you really think a few swear words will hurt you, close your eyes when you're reading. The world is saturated by far worse things than teenage twaddle like the F-U-C-K word. I'm here to be off the cuff and if something pisses me off, I'm not going to sit down and play Wordsworth, I'm gonna talk about how it makes me feel.

So deal with it, o wise elders who told me to "never change for anyone." Deal with it or get out of my sacred space. THANK YOU.

[NOTE TO SELF: Hit 40K visits this weekend. Frankly, I agree that I'm vulgar and whiny... so I'm a bit surprised anyone would *want* to read this. Congratulations, Kat. *throws self a party*]
