What are 10 things you want to say out loud but you can't?

Ooooh ooooh ooooh... This is a good one... I try to be a nice person really I do... But sometimes I would just rather say:
- No it's not alright you lame beeeotches... my time is important too... it's not all right that you need to reschedule...
- Does the nature of the opportunity AFFECT whether you know the people I asked you about?? (Do you mean you only KNOW them if there's something in it for you??
- Call your mommy... NOW... (oh wait I did say that) Good... now that I have you on the phone tell me every detail of everything you are doing so I can determine if I need to fly in there on my broomstick and save you!!! (Ok I didn't say that part...)
- What is fucking wrong with you people??? (ooops I hope my mom doesn't remember where this blog is)
- Why don't you ask your damn WIFE for the phone number? Cause then you'd have to explain to her why you're calling them AGAIN?
- Stop messaging me and calling me and following me around... Can't you take a hint?
- I miss you... I'm not happy about it... I want you back...
- No I don't mean you you F***tard (see number 6)
- My God you are a complete tool... Maybe it will be easier to be successful around here than I thought
- I need help with [anything]...
Wow so I guess there are alot more things I wish I could say than I thought... (and alot more I won't even say here...)
As I've wandered around the blogosphere I've noticed a number of blog posts and blog titles here and there that reference how many blogs people have. That made me stop and count up just how many I have... It's WAY more than I realized:
Blog #1 - March 2005 - Stumbled across this at another topic-specific site; this was the first electronic journal I've ever used and the first journal of any kind I've ever kept up with - Stats - 854 posts - still posting
Blog #2 - April 2005 - If one is good, MORE must be better; discovered a free, open blogging tool (I won't mention the 'B' word here (shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)), much prettier and easier to use than tools blog #1 uses (this is STILL unfortunately the case), I set this up for fun not really knowing what I wanted to do with it, but it has ended up being a totally private place where I post things I feel very strongly about getting down in writing, but don't want to share with anyone (yes I AM a big baby sometimes) - Stats - 10 posts - still posting but infrequently (what can I say, life is good for the most part and I share most everything with SOMEONE)
Blog #3 - May 2005 - Set up as an experiment to figure out how to link the blogging tool above to a domain/website that I already have; fun experiment, it worked well - Status - 3 posts - never posted again after the initial set-up
Blog #4 - Sept 2005 - Set up because of frustration with 'topic-specific site'; I set this up using Moveable Type (see I can say that here) on my own domain (installed it myself and everything (aren't you impressed Patti?)); this was lots of fun at first because a number of bloggers from the 'other site' came with me, but eventually it became too tedius to cross post with the other site, so it fell off... - Stats - 211 posts - haven't posted there since Oct, 2006
Blog #5 - June 2006 - This one :D - Invited here by Patti (I looooooooove you :p ); Yes, it's true, I was a Vox beta tester (wanna touch me??); I set this up because I'm always a sucker for new techno-toys, it's turned out to be a good place for fun, family-friendly, geeky blogging, I like the tool but WHEN are you guys gonna let us use code snippets and links in the sidebar (like in Typepad)? - Stats - 28 posts - still posting
Blog #6 - June 2006 - Set up a Flickr account - Does this one count? I suppose in a multimedia sort of way - Stats - 289 photos posted - still posting
Blog #7 - Jan 2007 - Set this one up using Moveable Type again because I wanted a place to keep some of the ideas I have floating around in my head; I like MT because it's completely customizeable, but I had some issues with the hosting site and the template I was using, and I don't really have the time or inclination to do much hard-core code development on the site/templates, so it's really more horsepower than I need - Stats - 10 posts - took this site down and switched to Typepad (see below)
Blog #8 - Jan 2007 - Set this one up using Typepad (am still in my 30 day free trial period (I love you guys haha!)) to take over hosting of Blog #7; I like the tool because it's flexible and customizable, but you guys take care of the server bs that I don't wanna deal with, if I decide to get ambitious I may switch to the advanced templates but so far it's working well; I like the 'community feel' of Vox, but I don't like that you have to be a member to comment so for this one Typepad is working better - Stats - 16 posts - still posting, come visit me!
Damn! No WONDER I can't get away from this computer!!! coughaddictcough!! So now it's YOUR turn... How many places do YOU blog???
This is Bronwen at her first climbing competion. She did very well but did not place. She has decided that she likes it after worrying and fretting over it for the past two months. Now she wants to go to the rock gym more often and work on bouldering which she never liked before. Had she done better at bouldering she would have placed easily. I'm very proud of her.
