in which we learn to say "oops" a lot

May 25, 2007 14:02

I feel like such a naughty naughty boy.

See, I have a lot of LJ friends. In order to deal with them all, I've broken them down into categories (which are linked on the left of my mail LJ page). The one at the top, the "Friends" category contains the journals of people I feel particularly close to or really want to make sure I read.

Recently in email, It was called to my attention that I have not been as ... attentive as I once was, and this had caused some upset. Part of me asked "what's the problem? I've been reading LJ."

And I have. But I've been reading stuff that I can just gloss over and not really read. In other words, I haven't bee reading my Friends category since my job ended almost three weeks ago. How do I know this? I view 20 entries per page, and only on rare occasions have I ever had to hit "Previous Page" for this category. I started looking at this category again last night, and I had to skip back three pages.

Oops.

Oops a lot. I apologise profusely, and I will get reading today. Depression, scheduling and joblessness have gotten the better of me, and I shall take pains to inject a little more structure in my day.

observations, introspection
