I will remember you
I find myself going through and deleting accounts, locking things down, organizing, updating, and otherwise slimming down my digital life. I still spend inordinate amounts of time doing random bullshit online, but now it's less stressful. In slimming down my life, I have found that I don't want to delete my Livejournal. It's been there for me, and if needed it can provide me with updates that folks don't want to share on facebook or myspace... even if I hardly read my friends page.
Everyone has my strong recommendation to delete old e-mails and prune closets. If you can't stick to diet and exercise like everyone promises themselves for new year's, then cut back on your life. In the end, it will make you much less stressed.
It's sad that I don't know what's going on with some of the folks that used to be a part of my life, but in reality, I don't want to get dragged into it. I just wish them well and that's all. No maintenance, no feeling bad, no wanting to get involved. I mourned the loss and moved on and chose to remember the good times rather than let the bad ones rule my thoughts. All that emotional baggage has been getting smaller and smaller... though it always leaks around the holidays. Another year has gone by. Another wound is healing.
And in the last hour I deleted five thousand e-mails. Seriously. My e-mail account looks so much nicer.
