Does this blog gossip?
My manager told me something on Thursday but he told me I couldn’t or shouldn’t blog about it. In fact he left me a very funny voice mail but I can’t tell you what he said in that message or what he said when we actually got to talk.
It is a local real estate matter.
He said something about “dirt” in his voice mail. There is a new restaurant going in right near our office on High Street in Worthington. He left me the message as he was leaving the office. I thought it might be about the construction site (another agent and I talked about the site yesterday… why is it going so slow…??) I often ask my manager “the dirt” about what is happening when I see the blue signs pop up on High Street or in Old Worthington. He always knows. Wednesday his message was not about the dirt at the buiding site.
A Real Living song stars in a video about gossip “What Do You Think About That” (full length video) on CMT. I wrote about the video here. Columbus a little bit Country?
“little bit of gossip coming from loose lips”
I am not country, I am more classic Beatles…
“Do you want to know a secret?
Do you promise not to tell?”
I hate to think that other people think I am a gossip. I posted an entry about some local real estate gossip a little over a year ago. I was not 100% comfortable doing so. I thought about running it by my manager (same fella who called me about dirt on Wednesday) before posting it but I never had before so I figured why start now… no one was reading my blog, it was like yelling into a void so why not just post it… my muse. Cartoonish behavior.
I posted Why are They Sitting in a Tree?
In my usual convoluted manner the post is about style and about a local cyber squatting case. It got read… not greatly but it got read. It got no comments for a few days. It was no secret. It was in the Columbus Dispatch, yet it felt gossipy in comparison to what I usually write about.
On August 2006 Sellsius Blog posted The Top Ten Women Real Estate Bloggers of 2006 and what entry did they mention?
“Maureen McCabe [Columbus Best Blog] Why are They Sitting in a Tree?”
Is it gossip if it is published in the Columbus Dispatch?
”Do you want to know a secret?
Do you promise not to tell?”
I am the kind of person that friends tell deep dark secrets to.
Or I was before I started blogging.
