Editing/Self Censoring

Here is quite a dilemma for me to ponder. Should I self censor myself, knowing that some who read this blog may very well be shocked at language and/or my general sense of self coming through or should I simply say "fuck it" and let it all fly? Most who know me know my predilection for rather colorful language....but there may be some (whom I currently work with, for example) who do not or do not really know how I am when encountered out of a particular element. One could say that a blog is there for an individual to vent their inner-most thoughts in whatever fashion they deem to be appropriate. But how far is "too far"?

Thoughts?

Here is where I run into issues as well. As much as I said I don't want to self-edit or censor myself, I keep thinking who will run into this blog? Family, work, or DevilChild, etc. I don't know how far is too far. In reality I wouldn't push TOO many buttons but am I really being free in my thoughts if I think of others? Blech. Having a conscious sucks. I think I mispelled that.

Fuck it. I'm continually amazed at how much my husband and I cuss on a regular basis. Last night discussing strawberries: "they're fucked."

So fuck it.
