poll - Dear Journal
For some time, my posting here has caused me strife, external and internal. It's got to the point that I have 15 different custom groups to accomodate the countless leagues in difference between my many friends here. This is tiring, needless and frustrating, making it often times difficult to keep this journal my own. There is a certain amount of façade needed to keep everyone happy and ticking along. It's bogging me down. Below is a poll pertaining to a possible solution. Please fill it in. No-one else can see your answers but me. I have also made the comments in this post screened, in case anyone needed some clarification or to ask a question. Thank you in advance.

Poll #995960 How now, friesian cow?
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: None, participants: 36

If I were to create a journal that was more... intimate, personal and in-depth, would you care to join me there?

Yes.
16 (44.4%)

No.
0 (0.0%)

I'd like to be on both of your friends lists. Thank you.
19 (52.8%)

I'd like to take this opportunity to quietly slip away from your friends list, if I may.
1 (2.8%)



Update: 3rd June '07

15 of the 18 that wanted to join me, so far, have been added. I'd have to think about the other 3. They're either completely new to me or on friendlier terms with my husband which may mean I could not speak freely about my home life, in the journal.

Update: 4th June '07

3 more folks added to the new journal.

I was thinking, I shouldn't bother to post again here to let people know thaey'd been added, or just in case some of you had missed this post entirely. But frankly, if you hadn't noticed you'd been added by someone new or you haven't given this post the time of day, that's pretty much my answer, right there. >:)

I'll check back periodically to see if there are any straglers who were out of town etc. but it would be more advantageous from this point on, if anyone not already requesting to be added, post a comment to alert me, seeing as the poll doesn't send notifications of new tickees. Thanks. x

Update: 9th June '07

6 more into the new journal, plummet.

Update: 11th June '07

Another 3 old friends on the new journal.

Update: 26th june '07

Well there's a rather healthy 40+ folks added over on the new LJ. Most of those added have realised and added me in return. One or two folks still not knowing as they don't seem to check their journal or their friend of list too often. But as it seemed that maybe 40 or so of you were constants in this journal, it's fitting that those few have come with me.

Also Congratulations to both [info]lucy_pointycat and [info]rhandolph on their recent marriage. All the luck and love in the world to you both. xxx

no facade needed post what you like.
If agreed with everything everyone said in the world, hell would it be a dull place

i too have a "public blog". as a lot of my content is not for mass consumption.

if you want, i can friend you on that one too and maybe you could see the lighter side of baalduru. :)

Not to worry, Roger. I prefer folks commenting if they feel compelled rather than because they feel obliged to. It also means that theu are saying what they really want to. >:)

I don't know what 'intimate' means, but add me to what becomes your main journal, if you please.

At this time, I'm really not sure if this new journal will take off. I only ever want to be honest with you so, I can't guarentee that the new journal will become my main posting place. I can only add you and suggest that if I don't post in one or the other for over a month, I will have found my place on LJ. >:)

Hey. And I was just dropping you a line to see how you were getting on too...

I`ve just had a major development in my life, too... I`m a bloody bus driver! How`s that for a turn up?


Anyway. I hope you are well. Speak soon I hope

Hey sweety,
Sorry I haven't been around a lot lately, I've been cleaning house like a crazed woman and making children grown

I'd love to be added to the new journal, I scoured my main page to see if there were any non-mutual new friends but I didn't see anyone new, I could be blind.

I hope you'll have me.

Hey there :)
Sorry I didn't fill this out sooner - I might be a boring bastard but I enjoy reading about your life and also sympathise a lot with what you're going through at present.
I'd be honoured to be on your friends list :)
