As most of you now know from my strangely random tweets last night (idk why but I keep imagining that you all heard it as some sort of yodel distress call...? x'D), I think we should have a weekly gab-fest. Real life (and, let's be honest, an unhealthy tumblr situation *ahem*MOI*ahem*) have been keeping me scattered as of late, and I miss you all terribly! We used to have LotS happenings/posts/events on lj all the time as our home base, but now that we don't [FOREVER BITTER, ABC! HOW DARE YOUUUUU!!!] it is incumbent upon ourselves to take initiative.
Tumblr is a totally useless and unreliable forum for discussion between two people, let alone several; twitter is exhausting in its 140 character limit (seriously, every time I'm forced to commit some heinous grammatical error for the sake of fitting it into that stupid limit, a part of my writer soul dies); a chat room would be cool, but it's so disorganized and things can get lost in the rapid-fire pace, not to mention hard to refer back to if we ever need re-read something for whatever reason.
So obviously the natural/perfect/best option is right here on sweet, reliable LJ. Basically I'm proposing once a week we just carve out a place and time to have a good old fashioned comment-fest-bonanza. If it sticks, we can have them more frequently or at different times; we can take turns hosting or have a theme. Whatever floats our boat, tbh, as long as we're here in one place and talking :)
Because there is so much we all need to catch up on! For example, things I am D Y I N G to know from all of you, but certainly not limited to:
What shows are you loving/keeping up with? How is school/work going? LIFE in general? WHAT DID YOU THINK OF THE CHUCK FINALE? Travel plans? Fics you are just dying to finish/read? Thoughts on Sparty so far? *LUCRETIA OMGZZ!!11!*
If this post ends up serving as our unofficial start-off or practice *lollerskates* for este viernes, sure- have at it! I'm still ordering my pizza and swearing off tumblr come this friday xD
EDIT: HUGE HUGE HUGE EDIT TO INFORM EVERYONE THAT WE WILL ALSO BE TALKING ABOUT MADI'S BIRTHDAY HERE. WHAT OH WHAT DO YOU WANT, BB? XD
