People Are Weird

Okay, so I had to laugh today when I read the blog of the woman I mentioned last week as being a friend that is too different from me to continue a friendship with. First she put down every other "Border Collie blog", claiming hers is a "journal" and everyone else's is crap. Okay... isn't that what all blogs are; a journal? I'm sure with most people not everything is laid out in text on their blog- I certainly don't write about everything on mine. Then she went on to make this comment about my post from the other day in regards to me having things to write about Jim, but not being able to at this time- "On one Blog I noted the writer accused certain people of “spying” on her. Ah, duh, it’s a public “Blog;” no one is “spying” on it because you are making it available for anyone to read (or not read) it. Shaking head in disgust." See, I know there are people who keep up with my blog, but not because they care about me or my dogs. (A little like Ms. Bernard) There are people out there that simply keep tabs to see what I am doing- with ill intentions. This is what I meant by "spies". Yes, I certainly know this is public, good grief I'm not living under a rock! Being public is the reason that I chose to not talk about Jim at this time- it is not a public topic right now. Ms. Bernard had expressed interest in what I found out in regards to Jim, and when I wrote to her, (after several years of friendship mind you) she could not even muster up an "I'm really sorry" email. I am more sure than ever that I am better off without her in my life. Some people are just plain cold- and odd. I'm sicken by the fact that my heartbreak probably brought a smirk to her face!! It's not to be forgotten that this winter she pretended to be an interested person in a dog I had for sale and then went as far as saying 'she' liked "a dog in NC" better- of course the dog in NC was a dog she had for sale. That's not normal behavior and I should have never tried to re-up our "friendship"!! I had been keeping up with her blog out of pure curiosity, but I should probably just stop. She talks of reading other "crap" blogs and that just sounds like a stupid thing to do- but I guess it's what I'm doing when I read hers- reading crap!! We are way too different to appreciate each other's views and it's foolish to keep reminding myself of that by reading her "journal".
