No more public blog

For the time being, this blog is now not being listed anywhere. If you know the addy already then thanks for being a loyal reader but if not, well, you wouldn't be reading this anyways!
It is against my wishes but hey, some people know whats best for me I guess. For the time being.

My reasoning in a nutshell:
I choose to keep my blog public, thus, my life is public for the world to see. It has bitten me in the ass many times but it is my choice and I choose to let people see what is going on in my life. Call it a mutally satisfying need to let people/be voyeuristic.

I plan to advertise to people now to get new design business. My mom doesn't think clients should see my blog. I agree and disagree.

Agree: clients will think I am immature/foul mouthed etc etc and she's right, it's not professional.
Disagree: If a potential client is scared away or shocked by my words/stories, then I don't want them as a client anyways.

So, being how I don't even have a pot to piss in, mom wins this battle but hopefully, 5 years from now, I will be able to pick and choose my clients. I want clients who want to have fun. I want clients who let me push some boundaries.

Soon, but not now I suppose.

    Glad I have the address already or I'd miss you. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. And for Kate. Do you have interest in leaving your area? Say for Phoenix?

    I hear the air is very clean there. and that it's very. very hot. and that it's much like the south... a little slower than we're used to out here in the "north" east.

    The air used to be claen - we now have our share of smog. And put up next to the east coast - the pace is definately slower. Not as slow as the deep south - but you can pick your own speed. But I won't lie. It gets damn hot. It was 100 degrees here yesterday. And it'll be like that until Halloween. The kids trick or treat in shorts every year.

    hahaha holy crap. we're always shivering when we go trick or treating. or um. the one time we were allowed to. man the neighbor scared the shit out of us that year. *grumbles* (;

    In jaysmom's defense...business is business and your blog is for friends. Blow off steam all you want in a safe environment. But research already states that job candidates are getting rejected for offers by companies simply because of what they have read on the candidate's blog.

    While most of what you post is cleaver and funny...some of what you post isn't either. It would be just your luck that a potential client would check your blog on the day that you felt like going 'postal' on the world.
