Refocusing

I'm anticipating some changes in my journal soon. I'm going to go back and remove some of the more mundane entries after downloading them to my computer. I'm going to also try to start focusing this back to what I originally created it for -- to discuss and ruminate on Gender Rights issues, Neo-Pagan Philosophy, Neo-Heathen Philosophy, and an occasional smart arsed comment.

Since the List Lizards now have better places to watch me, I will be actively deleting hostile responses to my journal, and a select group of known Reptiles will be subject to instant deletion. It's my damned journal, and I don't have to be fair about this.

It's been an interesting several months. Time to get my focus back and start working on the stuff that I've neglected. I need to start beating on my novel, hack out about 6 short stories, Brush up on Framemaker and Robohelp, and get back to working on the stuff that is important to me. And I am no longer interested in listening to a bunch of distractions from former and pseudo friends.

I have stuff to do. Time to shift out of Idle and get rolling.

Do what I did, block anon posters. Not trying to censor anyone, I just don't want the negativity in my life. I had someone that I was just chatting with from LJ and they were positively the most toxic person I have ever encountered. I chatted with this person all of **2** times thinking that maybe it was just my perspective. But I kept thinking about it and it started making me feel physically ill, so I decided that I should have just gone with my first reaction, which was "GAG!!!!"

I've done that. My concern is the abusive, unstable, obsessive, and sometimes rabid non-anonymous ones.

I wish LJ had an enemies list, where you could prevent people from reading your journal or replying. They could read it logged out, of course, but they couldn't spew their obsessive bile.

So I will delete them. After all, they have no reason to Watch me anymore, right?

Oh, come ON! YOu can't possibly believe they'll stop watching you NOW! Especially with your involvement in the new community center!

Just because you want to live in a shiny happy world does not mean that the world is shiny and happy.

Fine. Just burst my little bubble of temporary self delusion. I was just trying to get in touch with my inner Bliss Ninny. I know that I will be hounded by the dogs forever.

Ya know, I tried rose colored glasses on once. Couldn't see a thing. Nothing had any edges anymore.

Still, something has got to come up eventually that will taketheir attention away from me. Who knows, it might even be something with some importance to it.

I still wish for a killfile or twit filter on LJ like I have on my email programs.
