The Internet is a Dangerous Place

What a mess! I have always loved the internet. I think is great to have information available instantly, to be able to stay in touch with friends across the world, and to talk and video chat with my husband when we are apart. However, it certainly is a dangerous place. 


My credit card numbers haven't been faultily used, my identity hasn't been stolen (I don't know who would want it), and my picture hasn't been smeared all over The Dirty. Disregarding those possibilities, the internet seems pretty safe. But, you never know what lurks ahead, trust me!


Today I was approached and told that people have seen my blog. Great! Right? Wrong. Apparently it is being viewed as a negative thing. A blog I created so that my husband, my family, and my friends can follow the year we are spending apart, is a bad thing. I was not aware of that, and that surely was not my intention when creating this blog. Something I have thought to be very innocent and honest, is being taken in a different way. Where is the negativity? I have been going about my life with a positive attitude and a rosy outlook. 


I was also forewarned that people think I could lose my job due to this blog. I have contemplated the idea, and can find no reason to believe that could be true. So, to my whopping seven followers, and obviously others that are reading this, please double check for me. Maybe I am so blinded by my intentions, that I am missing something. Is there something on here to condone even the thought of losing my job? I would be shocked to find out, but greatly appreciative. 


I know have a love-hate relationship with the internet. The same thing that enables to see Jeff every night, and maybe hear him too, is slamming me down in another aspect of my life. 

The week flew by. I am hoping the weekend drags, but I have a feeling it won't. I am looking forward to seeing my husband tomorrow and spending the weekend with him so much more than you could know!
