Enough already?

I’ve almost posted something about this twice this week but have kept holding back. Since the impulse won’t go away, I figure maybe someone needs to hear it and it’s not simply my own instincts speaking. I don’t know about the rest of you but frankly I’ve had enough of certain discussions, to the point where I decided to take a couple of my favorite sites off my blog feeds and links temporarily until they get over their current obssession with this latest controversy. Not saying I won’t go back to visit them eventually. Just saying I need some distance from them for now.

Here’s the thing, I found myself wondering as I was skimming through one of the recent comment threads whether a certain well-known famous author really would have that much time to post that many comments. It doesn’t matter whether she does or she doesn’t. It doesn’t matter whether it’s her or not. That it even crossed my mind to wonder made a major alarm go off in my head and I suddenly felt myself pulling back in the same way I’ve been pulling back from watching all the celebrity hoopla on the news lately.

Oh, it’s not the same, you say?

Funny, how it feels the same when all I want to do is talk about the products rather than the people behind them.

Cliched, I know, but strangely, oddly true.
