Its been a while.
Yes, it has been an exceptionally long time since I've posted here. I still don't have much to say, I'm sorry. I do still read most of the posts that come in. Keep up with what folks are reading, their weekly and/or monthly word count, new stories they may have posted, etc. But I've turned in a major lurker. All I have energy for is to read, commenting has been beyond my energy level. I'm gonna try to see if I can change that.
I do hope everyone is doing well, that we all, or mostly managed to have evaded any serious health or loss issues during the last 14 months are so. I am fully vaccinated, and am happy, or so happy to say I had no negative effects from it. At all. So grateful that that was my experience.
I've been doing even more lurking on Tumblr. Mostly because I still don't understand how most of it works. I've tried reading Dicta_contrian (sp) guide to Tumblr, but most of it is more detailed than I can understand (For those of you who are technocrats--don't laugh at me. It's the truth) I read, occasionally hit the little heart at the bottom (sometimes by accident and I find I've liked something that I really didn't. Like that is.
That's my main source of any social activity. Which brings me to LJ, my preferred method. Its something I know, I feel comfortable with. At least I used to, but its been weird for me for about 6 months are longer. It will not let me access the friends feed. I can see my page, my profile, and I can post, but when I click on the "friends feed" it takes me to a completely blank page. Noting. Even when get the email that says so and so has posted for 1st time in long time. I can click on the link, read the first part of the posting. When I click on the "more" tab it takes me to--- You guessed it, a completely blank screen. Does anyone know what the problem is?
I will try to be more active in terms of reaching out and connecting. No promises though, as I tend to go into shutdown and shut out mode fairly easily and once there, its really really hard to get out again.
