A trifle worrying..

I find it worrying that in my "stats" section, under the list of criteria people were searching for when they found my blog, number five is "isolation and self absorption".

Oh sh*t... 

That does kind of say it all, mind you; but it's sobering to see it spelled out so bluntly.  I am indeed isolated (~ish) and self-absorbed (decidedly).

I didn't think I'd used either word much, though, and that's what is puzzling me a bit about this.  Holy creepin' jeebus, has blogger developed some kind of meta-analysis tool that enables it to direct people looking for cases of isolation and self-absorption to isolated, self-absorbed bloggers, just like that?

Surely most bloggers are isolated and self-absorbed, to a certain degree at least?  isn't blogging kind of like solipsism to the power of ten?

Or - eee - even worse, has Blogger developed i*n*t*e*l*l*i*g*e*n*c*e?

(Cue voice fading as she is dragged away by the Selenites) Help...

Actually, yours is on the less self-absorbed and isolated blogs that I've come across, so no need to worry. :)

Did I get that right?

Of course, I meant to say 'one of the less', but keyboard accuracy is not my strong point at the moment.

Sorry to hear that, Anon. Hope you don't have a limb in plaster or some such (bitter memories!!). Go well!
