Wow. Livejournal

It had been some time since I had brought up that URL. http://www.livejournal.com
I was a little nervous. Would everything be the same? Would I still understand, and be able to navigate through the pages with the same ease I did previously?
There was only one way to find out. All I had to do was press one key; the enter key.
I swallowed some spit that was swashing around in my mouth. I stared at that key for nigh on five minutes. Then, with new resolve, I hit it!
"Welcome to Livejournal! Seasons greeting!", it said warmly. How I missed that welcome. I looked at the navigation menu; it was still the same.
"Excellent!", I thought to myself, "I'll have no problem navigating these pages!" Without any further delay, I clicked straight on the "Update Journal" link and started writing a post.
But I wasn't the only one who felt alone during these past months.
As I was updating, she started to speak to me.
"Oh, so your back again. Are you sticking around this time? Or will it be just one quick update before you forget about me again." It was Lj. She was pissed.
"I didn't forget about you Lj. My access to you was restricted at work. And you KNOW I do all my writing at work."
She sneered at me and said "Well, you aren't at work NOW, are you?"
I looked around the room, knowing full well where I was. I was almost looking for an answer to give her, something that might calm her down but I found nothing.
"No, no I'm not at work right now. But I never think to..", she cut me off there.
"That's the problem, Drax, you never THINK. You always go on a whim leaving those who care about you behind. I don't want to be left behind Draxenn. But for some reason you often discard me like yesterdays trash."
She knew that wasn't true, she was just trying to hurt me. And you know what? It worked.
I was taken aback for a moment, I couldn't speak.
"So, i'll ask again. Are you sticking around this time?"
"Yes", I replied. "I have no intention of forgetting about you again.
"Fine", she retorted, "But you sleep on the couch tonight.
I nodded in agreement. At least the couch was comfortable. We had a nice couch.
Now Lj and I are working on patching things up. Hopefully soon you'll start to see regular updates.
Chow for now.
