Diplomacy

Not for the first time, I am reminded of the drawbacks of writing a semi-private, pseudo-anonymous blog. Sometimes you are just itching you allude to something, thinking you will feel better afterwards and hoping that the person you are addressing will read it and know she's being addressed. The assumption is of course that it spares you the emotional, potentially friendship-ending confrontation. I've given in to the itch before and it turned out to be a bad idea, plus the alluding inevitably results in all the other people asking you what it was all about when you really don't want to discuss it with them. The only solution - wait for an opportune "offline" moment to address the issue (possibly never) and until then continue writing about the more mundane things of life while you edit that little speech in your head. Nice weather, isn't it?
