My Life, my LJ (and other animals)

My LJ, like my life, has just had a severe pruning. If you're reading this, you haven't been removed, no need to comment (unless you want to be removed, of course (:).

If you've been snipped, honestly, it's nothing personal, we've likely grown apart in interests and whathaveyou, maybe you've dropped away from LJ too? Maybe you never friended me back (I do think LJ should be a dialogue and not just me jabbering away to myself like a loon). Whatever the case, if I've 'unfriended' you (what a horrible way that is to put it) and you wanted to stay, please, by all means comment or pm me, I'll be more than happy to add you back.

I have been a tad quiet of late, my laptop's power failed a couple of weeks ago, I was without t'internet for ten days and in that time, I rediscovered Real Life and all its joys and I have to say, far from being the trial I feared, it was actually rather lovely. :) Now I'm back I'm finding myself much less inclined to be constantly online.

My fannish interests are very much on the wane, I'm reading very little fic these days and bar one, still-outstanding story, I don't anticipate writing any more of my own. I doubt if I'll be commenting as much as before, either and - I'm telling y'all this in case you feel I'm too dreary company these days and feel you want to remove me. I do totally understand if that's so, so please feel free and absolutely no offence taken.

So, if in the light of all the above, you're still here and want to be, or you've been pruned and happy to be so, there's no need to comment. If, on the other hand, I've done something you're not happy about, just let me know and I'll rectify the situation.

In the meantime, permission to blow kisses? I may have gone a bit quiet but I do still love you all, you know.

It's addictive.

It is, isn't it? While I was offline, I read seven books, did a 5 - 7 mile walk a day and got so much work done. I'm trying to resist the slide back to old habits, turning the lappy off when not actively using it. I've pruned because I want online time to be quality time.

I'm glad you're enjoying life with the SL and - OMG! RAIN!!! Lotsandlotsandlots of thunder and heavy, heavy RAIN. Satellite signal is down, I am praying for my courgettes. :)

We gots the RAIN here too! The black clouds are rolling by and the thunder and lightning is just starting to kick in with a vengeance. It's taken the satellite off here and now it's chucking it again!
I wish your courgettes well in this downpour! I hope you gave them an umbrella...
:o)

ha! Last time we went away, the garden parasol blew down and took out 2 cucumbers and a lovely orange glass water bud. Umbrellas are evil.
