What is with LJ lately?
I have to refresh about 7 times to post a comment, if I can even get that far. It's sad it see, it really is. I've been on LJ for years now and I really don't wish to go elsewhere, but if the issues aren't sorted out I may have to.
I'm also drunk...ish. So bear with me.
And so, I'm posting. Just in case worst comes to worst. I have met some amazing people though here and there isn't a person on my friends list currently I don't have a desire to keep in touch with should I not be able to through LJ anymore. There are some I'm closer to than others, of course, but there isn't anyone I can say I would like not ever hearing from again. Hence this post, just in case LJ doesn't ever get back to how it used to be and I get fed up. This isn't an "OMGZ I'M LEAVING LIVEJOURNAL FOR GOOD" post by any means. I do hope that the attacks stop, or whatever it is that's going on gets sorted out, but lately it's been much more effort than it's worth. And so, I'm looking to other avenues until it gets sorted out. Or until I can at least comment without having to refresh forever. I've relocated to Dreamwidth temporarily. I'm pretty sure I have a few invites should anyone else wish to come over as well, just drop me an e-mail.
For those that do wish to stay in touch should the worst come to befall LJ (and yes, I realize I'm jumping the gun here and it's most likely unneccessary, but whatever), here are a variety of places to find me at.

I see personal information and I am not feeling it.
lol ok I read the post now, not a bad idea. Well, I have your tumblr.
I'd skype ya just to see the girl behind the elegant journal. Just once. That's not begging, that's manipulation. PLEAAAASE. Again, that's not begging. Just a hint. A nudge. lol. I'm just nosey. But yeah, I know it's a bit of an odd relationship. You've seen me way worse than I've ever seen you ... but in a skype setting, I could be more appealing. Now I set myself up; and I will deliver. Just sayin.

Date: 2011-07-31 12:24 am (UTC)From:I've always enjoyed sitting on a sidewalk bench and watching people pass by. Seeing a goodbye at a bus stop, or hearing snatches of hurried phone conversations. Tiny bits of lives that I will never know. I'm not really motivated to know, either. I suspect I'd find people, much like the ones I already know. I just like those little bits. The glimpses of shiny things.
Your journals are a lot like that for me, neat little moments, flashes of emotion or insight from a person and a place I really have no idea of! Moments of truth (or perception) in an otherwise mysterious emptiness. If you leave LJ, I will be rather saddened, because the world is better for those glimpses of shiny things.
Enough being philosophical. With this entry, I feel like all the fun of stalking you would be gone. There goes that evil mastermind scheme! D:

On slow days at work, the doctor and I will stand there next to each other and just watch the people walk by and catch bits and pieces of different people's conversations. Most of them I will never see again or even know any detail about their lives, but I always wonder about them, what makes them tick, etc.
LiveJournal makes me feel so much more connected to people. Even if the vast majority of the friends I have here, I'll never meet in person, there is this connection I feel to so many of the people here. I toyed with the thought of just using a paper journal after all the attacks, but I found I really don't want to do that. I may write for myself, but I rather enjoy interacting with those that do read what I post.

There isn't the social pressure or the obligations and expectations to deal with. You know that people see your thoughts, and you read theirs in return, but it's removed enough that there's much less a sense of judgement.
It's like telling secrets into the wind, you don't much mind if the wind replies back.
But if a co-worker does, then it creates a situation!
Still, paper journals have a place. They're good for the things you can't tell anyone, the things you don't even want to tell yourself.
