Understand Dependence
Upon looking through my archive, I realized that I've not done this for years 4 and 5, but I feel like I should say that today's my sixth Livejournal anniversary.
That kind of blows my mind. I remember seeing other peoples' posts about anniversaries upwards of five years when I first got here and being like, o.0 ? It just seemed like such a long time. But now that I'm here, I really can't see myself leaving. And I don't just mean leaving LJ, but leaving fandom. I think I'll always be in that mindset now where I'll read or watch something and want to see the fandom. I'll want to see what fic can explore, or develop, or (in some cases) correct. I'll want to squee or bitch about the canon with other people, and to know that there's always something else out there to look at.
In that respect, sometimes it feels like I've been enjoying things to their full potential for only six years, and that doesn't seem like a long time at all.
