10/25/2001 Entry: "Let's All Watch Mooncalf Squirm!"

AIEEEEEE one of my parents found my website and read my blog AIEEEEEE.

Uh... I mean... hi Dad!

You see, due to circumstances beyond my control, somewhere out there, my real name appears on the Web, linked to my pen name and my website. So my father (who, also due to circumstances beyond my control, knows my real name) typed said name into Google, and followed the chain of incidents back to... my site.
All of it.
Including the blog and the smutty bits.
Oh dear.

That's right, folks, Google has outed me to my father!
Not that this situation really compares to the heart-pounding seriousness of telling your folks you're gay. Or so I'd imagine; being heterosexual really limits the number of times you can come out of the closet, you know?
But it's a really strange feeling to know that Google has turned to your father and coolly informed him that his little girl, whom he has known and loved since she was the size and shape of a loaf of bread, is a yaoi fangirl. And tends to write about smut and dead skunk cum and condoms and all sorts of other loveliness.

So. Um.

Hi Dad!

......

*cough*

... lot of weather we're having!

My mom went through my bookmarks and found mine. now I can't put anything perverted up or else she'll figure out I'm not gay and start setting me up with people and trying to talk about men with me. -_- She knows about my yaoi obsession though. it's one of the reasons she thinks I'm gay. Go figure.

*waves at Mooncalf's dad* Pleased to meet you! I'm one of the random people that crashes about Mooncalf's blog. *shrugs* I enjoy her writing. Even if she *does* say I'm evil.

Outing myself to my parents wasn't all that bad, actually. It happened when I was eighteen and they were fretting about me spending the night with a male friend. "Mom, Dad, that's not an issue." "Why's that?" "BECAUSE I'M GAY, GODDAMNIT!" "...Oh." "I'll be back by Thursday." "...Okay."

Hi Mooncalf's dad!

You should know me, I'm the guy that likes to get perverted with Mooncalf :3

Oh...my...gosh, how awkward. ^_^;

It doesn't seem so bad though. :) Could be worse; the idea of my dad finding my site/blog ranks among my worst online-related nightmares. (Right up there with being cyber-stalked by a crazed axe-wielding psychopath named Earl. Neither of which, thankfully, has ever happened.)

So, these things happen, and it seems to have turned out reasonably well. :)

StB ... I'm coming for you ... heh heh heh.

O_O! Oh my. That made me laugh really hard. I'd probably get all my computer priv..prile...those things revoked if my parents ever found my site. But I think I'm in the clear cause they don't know how to use search engines...and now I don't think I'm gonna teach them. XP

Hi FatherMoo! I'm one of the other farm animals that marvels and envies at Mooncalf's incredible writing skills. You did a great job!

Psst! Mooncalf! Um. Yah. So does this mean that we won't get to read any further smut and other loveliness from you?

Posted by Goose @ 10/26/2001 11:56 AM EST

Oh, no worries. My father /likes/ my blog! He told me so!
You see, my father is a ridiculously cool person and a gifted parent, and he's web-savvy enough not to splatter my real name all over my blog, so he's more than welcome here... and hell, if I haven't managed to give him a heart attack /yet/, I don't know what I could write that was /worse/!
I spent a couple of hours last night reading back over my blog archives just to make myself wince. Boy, I overshare. Hee hee hee.

Hi! This is Father Moon. I would be extremely disappointed in Mooncalf if she were to change anything in her blogs. I am really proud of her skills and hope not to deprive myself or possibly others of her incisive writing. Of course, her real name is something that sounds like *!!!*. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to let that out.

Posted by Mooncalf's Father @ 10/26/2001 02:25 PM EST

... I love my daddy!

Posted by Mooncalf @ 10/26/2001 05:05 PM EST

Don't worry, Moo. I won't say a word about that incident with the squirrel, the jar of Miracle Whip and the jumper cables.

*runs like hell*

Isn't he a good dad, Moon? ^_^
