(no subject)
Thanks to everyone who participated in the Love Month this year, with stories, pictures and giving feedback. I think it could’ve gone better considering a few things, but in general, there was much enjoyment on my end.
While I’ll be ready for a 3rd time around next February (with promises), I won’t say that I’m not discouraged. There were a whole myriad of things that had me narrow my eyes or even get pissed-off over, including what was a thinly-veiled ‘dig’ at the LM itself, and the fandom as it’s been going over a while before that in general, really. I’m not going to say where/when/who/what/why/how, as I don’t want to get into it. I’ve talked with some others about it and it wasn’t just me reading into things, which is easy-as-hell for me to do. I laughed about it at first, but now that things have wrapped up, I’m feeling a little wary and off-kilter.
I don’t want to deal with shit right now, so I’m taking a week of from LJ. I won’t be posting or reading or commenting. There’s a lot going on in my head, and I need to focus on RL stuff. Nothing bad is going on, I just want to get the hell away for a while. I’ve been discouraged and not-as-comfortable by/with things. There won’t be LJ-deleting or dramatic flounces. Going to the museum with my son on the bus was such a nice thing to do, even with the cell-yell going on. It was refreshing to be out in the sun, something I need to do more often. I’m not going to be working much the next week or two, so I’m going to work on a few things, probably write, and e-mail. But no LJ… I’m love it, but I’m tired of it.
I’ll be on YIM if you need me, more than likely (vast_cool_and_unsympathetic). Thanks to the people who’ve really listened the last few weeks. You’re all treasures.
*hug*
