Home is where the stylesheet is
I think of the net as sort of a dreamland.
I know that bits of places I've considered 'home' ever have started to blend in my dreams. Alaska and Arizona mesh together; bits from home-with-my-parents and home-in-my-apartment mesh together, as witness last night's dream where some of the layout of my own room and the whole bedroom thing melded with the bathroom in my parents' house to form something that my undermind knew was my room, but temporary.
I spend much of my day on the computer. I have started to consider my web presence as 'where I live', because it's where my friends come to visit me. It's where I go to entertain, to kick back and relax, to bitch, to let my hair down and tell it how it is. I even pay rent.
If someone cracked my account and vandalized it, I do think that I'd feel about as yicky as the time when the one psycho-lady tried to break in to my actual apartment.
I'm not sure where I'm going with this, except that I really do want to make my web presence between sites as seamless as walking around between Arizona and Alaska in my dreams... ...and make walking between my physical life and my written life just as easy.
