Fickle
I think I’ll be calling PB my new permanent home. My OD Plus account will soon end and I won’t renew it. I considered cross-posting for a while, but I don’t think I’m the type. Things don’t always have to be so precise and calculated. I’m OK with existing differently in different places. I’m OK with letting go. Thrilled, actually. 13 years of back story is pretty epic, but it has also become a ball and chain of sorts. A change of scenery has my blood coursing again. A revival. I feel like a filly jumping the fence to graze in new, sweeter grasses. I’ll even stomach the growing pains and tummy ache.
I do have the right to change my mind, though. Once, someone called me fickle, as if I should assume it as an insult to my personality. But there are plenty of things worth being fickle over. Your loyalty to ice cream flavors, for instance. And journaling websites, maybe. There’s no sense in expelling blind loyalty to something that doesn’t owe any loyalty to you. We’re writers. We write where we can, and when we can, and in the end, that’s what’s worthwhile.
Ahhhh, we’ll miss ya.

RYN: people create and pick sides largely because they’ve got nothing else to hang their identities on because they’re boring, ignorant and/or close-minded. I prefer to dance upon the hallowed lines of false dichotomies myself and I watch the normals squirm as well.

I love Prosebox. I think Simple Mind is a great guy and it’s so nice to have someone in charge who actually cares. I understand how writing there would probably be inspiring because it’s new and it has it’s whole future ahead of it. Looking forward to reading your wonderful entries at Prosebox and if you change your mind and decide to write on Open Diary, well I’ll read those too. I love the way you write.

I understand this. The heaviness of life trailing behind is a lot. I will probably stay here because I am like that but I’ll check in over there as people cross over. love to you.

RYN: I hear girls are great until they become teenagers. If I do ever have a daughter, I will they her dates that I’m not afraid to go to prison for her. Terror builds character, right?

RYN: We’ll see what happens. There’s a lot of steps between me and kids. Hopefully, yours doesn’t turn into a terror for a long while yet.
