I like the idea of LJ, but I dunno about the practice of it. To me, this site is for the verbose, and I am nothing but. I am concise and prone to extended periods of writer's block. I swear, I feel like my brain is some dried up patch of land: inhospitable (or practically inhabitable) to ideas. Right now I'm struggling to lengthen this into a proper journal entry. I mean, I know there's no character minimum, but I feel like anything under a paragraph is a bit of a waste. Also, I find it hard to believe that anyone would want to read my journal or whatever. My life consists of not doing much with random bouts of productivity. I've seem to inherit a philosophy that reads, "If you're going to do anything, you might as well do everything, and all in one go!" Super smart strategy for someone with an anxiety disorder, amirite? But the one thing that does intrigue me about LJ-really the only thing that draws me to any social networking site-is possibility of friendships. I like the idea that you can form bonds with people all over the world from the comfort of your bedroom. So that's what I'm setting out to do. I'm here to befriend you.
