There are so many reasons to shut up -- not letting slip details you want to keep secret, not saying something bad about a person and then having it get back to that person, not goading on people who work at pissing you off (those of you who knew me from the pre-.org days doubtlessly remember how much trouble I used to have with that last one) -- and even though I'm a private person, a woman of few words, still I manage to struggle with saying entirely the wrong thing at entirely the wrong time.

I am going through one of those rare moments in my life where I actually have something I want to say, and not just to friends or to everyone here reading this entry, but to the whole world. If I say it, though, I could really fuck something up that's more important to me than I dare mention. I'm turning into a real basketcase here, and I don't know what to do.

Besides, of course, shut up.

If entries here suddenly become even more sparse than they have been in recent months, at least now you know why. All will be revealed in due time, probably, but for now let's just say that I'd better keep my lips sealed.
