Going Private

Well after hearing many blogging horror stories I am deciding to make my blog private. I really want be in control of who gets to see into my private life. I hope this doesn't detour any family or friends from coming to my blog once I go private. I am asking any one who likes to look at my blog for their email address so I can invite them to see my blog once I go private. I know some of you are phantoms so even if you look and don't post please give me your email so you can continue to quietly peak into my life. Unless, of course, you are a total stranger then I don't need your email address because you are who I am trying to keep out.
