Xander Photos...and thoughts on friendslock

I put a few new ones on Flickr.  I love this photo so much.  

There are many good things right now.  Xander is doing so much more every day; he's just more of a person.  My work is coming along well, even if there are frustrating moments.  Kate and I managed to find some time to ourselves on Valentine's day, which was much needed and well-valued.  We found a really great restaurant that is, well, not quite in our neighborhood but not so far away. 

But there is some serious suckage, which I can't really talk about in public on the intarwebs until we decide what to do.  Sorry.  So we're a bit down around here at the moment.  If you try to catch us, and we're sulky or whatever, that's why. Nothing about you.

I'm also trying to decide whether to take this journal substantially friends-only.  I'm not shy about what my real name is on here.  I'm also about to list a link to this journal in a publication, now that I'm dipping into fandom studies.  I'm just thinking perhaps the fannish stuff, and some not-so-important stuff, should be the only public things. 

IDK; what do you think?  What choices do you make about being public or not public in various capacities on your journal? What do you lock, not-lock, etc?
