budding fan base?

so i just discovered that, contrary to my earlier beliefs, i do have a readership... while somewhat flattered, i must also confess to being somewhat disturbed... more so, since this supposed "fan" is a co-worker and someone privy to my most private (read public) musings...

i must confess, i find it slightly uncomfortable that one of my co-workers (and apparent "friends") would do this behind my back. admittedly, by putting forth my thoughts, life etc on such a public forum, i am opening myself up to criticism and scrutiny - not all of it pleasant. which begs the question, is this worth it???

for my own part, i consider this blog a means to venting my frustrations, whilst simultaneously keeping those i adore (my near and dear) informed on my doings and whereabouts... but is it worth the cost of clandestine ridicule by my fellow workers? it's not that i mind the tongue-in-cheek humor and sarcasm - far from it. in fact, i actually think it's quite cleverly written and vastly amusing... what bothers me is the fact that i was not included in the joke. after all, since this is obviously authored by someone i work with (and who i - probably stupidly - consider a friend), it stings that i was not made privy to a joke that is quite obviously at my expense...

herring spy? fantastic fan? or simple stalker...? i'm probably overreacting. only time will tell. while i have my suspicions on said person's identity, for the time being, i will keep my cards close to my chest. for one, i will be a lot more cautious about what i say (uh, yeah right!)...

meanwhile, you can check out the musings of my media mole at omarwatch.blogspot.com.

later gators,
