I’m alive!

I think...

*checks*

Yes - that seems to be all in order there.

Still, I seem to be keeping up my pattern of posting once every fortnight or so.  At least it’s sort semi-regular, if not terribly active.  I’ve just been feeling weird on LJ, ever since the whole Strikethrough ’07 business.  It didn’t actually affect me directly, but it completely changed the way I feel about LJ and my presence therein.  Here’s my analogy:


It’s like spending a lot of time living on your own, being all grown-up and independent... only to come home from work one day and find that your parents have turned up and have gone through all of your stuff while you were out.  And to further find out that they’ve decided to move in with you.

That’s how it feels.  Every time I post something on LJ, I feel as though someone’s standing over my shoulder, watching everything I type.  It’s a tiny bit of an over-reaction, I know, but I just can’t shake it.

So instead, I’ve been spending my time beta-ing or mucking about on messageboards or talking to various people for fifteen hours straight like I did yesterday.

I’m even thinking of doing some writing.

I hope you can shake that feeling soon. I know how sucky it is to feel like that lol. *hugs*

As for the writing. Don't think, do! I want to read some again ^_^

It's a weirdly uncomfortable feeling. And silly, too, because I was never affected by the drama.

Hehe - thanks! I have no idea what to write, but I haven't felt like writing in ages. So I guess it's a good thing. :D

Hehe - so it's you looking over my shoulder when I'm typing? :D

The world definitely more of the hawt pr0n... I can only hope my muses will provide. :D

As someone who had their journal (the physical type you actually write in by hand lol) read by their mother, I totally understand the feeling lol.

I guess so ^_^

It is!

*thinks about this*

That means... your comment wasn't irrelevant at all! Please send your fine of one, dishwasher-sized piece of tupperware to my address as soon as possible, to avoid lasting side-effects.

Hooray! I completely missed the strikethrough thing, and then I saw your last post and was terribly worried you'd left eljay forever.

I don't think I could ever really leave LJ - I'd miss everyone far too much.

Okay, added you to my list. As you can see the DWE theme runs pretty much through and through.

On topic: I have to agree. None of the communities I am a apart of were affected by the idiocy of LJ, and by that I'm shocked. It has made it uncomfortable though...you never know when they may decide that fandom in all it's lunacy are a bunch of pedo's again. :(

Added you back :D - I just had to wait until I got home to do it. Because my work apparently already knows that LJ is evil and must be blocked at all costs...

I hardly ever discuss fandom at all on my LJ, but I still feel weird about the whole situation. And WfI's still after LJ, so it'll be interesting to see how 6A deals with that.
