Voice? Tone?

One of my main obstacles in starting, and maintaining, a blog is my hesitation to establish a specific voice. Obviously, I write as myself, but knowing that anyone (my grandmother, my employer, my housemates, the Dalai Lama) could be reading my musings puts me on edge. What stories can I tell, or not tell? Should I censor my language? Assume that future employers can and certainly will read my blog?

Seems like the only way to strike this perfect balance of authenticity and appropriateness is to keep writing. So that's the plan.

Any bloggers out there want to chime in on their tactic in establishing a unique cyberspace voice?
