Do U C What I C

Just a quick post because it seems that I have once again somehow gotten into some sort of one sided verbal joust with one of my favorite bloggers.  It all started a couple weeks ago when I saw a twitter that at first read seemed a bit out of character for dwarlick.  I wanted to hear more about this thought, and so I muddled around with twitter for awhile, then realized that he could not see me, because he does not follow me.  So I let it go, and never really got to the bottom of that, no big deal.  So NOW it seems that I have somehow said something that was taken as criticism in his current post, and I really feel bad about that.  I was just thinking out loud, and I only really comment when I feel that what my brain is spitting out is worth exposing to the rest of the world.  I really didn’t meant to be a critic.  So I set out once again to find dwarlick, and apologize for any misconception of my ramblings.  I could email him, but I tend to think of that as “invasive” when I don’t really know the person.  (Except for Dembo on his B-Day) No chance of getting him on twitter-already explained that, hmmm…I could comment on his post, but I really don’t want to look like a dork…so I ask you- when something you comment on is perhaps taken the wrong way, do you see it as comment etiquette to comment again and explain?  Should I comment, or let it go?  If I don’t comment, do I risk blowing my photo opportunity at METC next month?  Is it bad to be critical when we are all trying to figure things out together? OK, these are all obviously rhetorical questions since I just linked the post here, and now it will trackback to his blog….well then, I guess this IS my apology….what would Miss Manners say about apologizing in a trackback?  Well, as I told my friend JW the other day, I have spent half my life with my foot in my mouth, so here we go again!
