So... Apparently I am offensive, abrasive, and entirely too open for anyone's good. How was I supposed to know that?
In between a boat load of IT problems today, I got an email from someone who I used to be acquainted with. This person told me in no uncertain terms that my last several LJ posts have been "offensive, negative and abrasive" and that I would be well-advised to "stop being open to a fault" and giving my "so-called readers" more than they "bargained for".
To this end, I have written the following response:
Dear Concerned Nuisance,
I'm sorry to hear that you feel disatisfied with the recent entries into my personal journal. I had not realized that I was breaking some rule as to how to express myself. I'm terribly disappointed to hear that you find what I had always believed to be open, honest candor to be otherwise, and in fact to be offensive. I clearly was mistaken in thinking that I had the freedom of speech. You clearly have felt that I have alienated you or any other person who should unluckily stumble across my personal musings. Please allow me to extend my deepest apologies to you for giving you too much information about me in what, for all intents and purposes, amounts to little more than my diary. As a form of showing me that you are of sound mind and thinking, I strongly advise you not read this blog any further, and indeed, you shall not see any continuation of my spiraling negativity.
Thank you,
Marisa
Also, I am truly sorry to any of you who actually have felt this way, but have been polite enough not to write me an email and bitch me out about the fact. ^_^
