Chronology
There's a small button in front of me; it say's "Detect Music Now", and if I so decide to press it, it automatically detects what I am listening to and places it in a little form bar entitled "Current Music", of which is used to display what I am listening to to you. Right above "Current Music" is another little form bar entitled "Current Mood", which I'm sure you've induced be now serves the purpose of me trying to inform the reader what my current mood IS exactly.
Where is the "Detect Mood Now" button? Hmmmm...

So I have this fanatically anti-livejournal girlfriend (see below) that moved in with me 6 months ago (notice how that just about corresponds with my last post date.)
And the truth is, she's got good points that I've grappled with myself in regards to livejournal since the beginning. Questions having to do with human nature and it's seeming attraction to livejournal. Who are people trying to reach out to when they use livejournal? Is it just a pathetic attempt to be heard that I'm wasting my time at? Almost needless to say my mind has been grappling with these philosophical questions for almost 6 months, and reinforced by her fanaticism, it's just been a gridlock argument with no insight in my mind. Livejournal was on hiatus.
So what changed the tide? Well, I've finally decided (now that what reader/friend base I once had has long since forgotten about me) that writing everyday is something thats beneficial to me, that I like doing, and I'm doing it for myself, not anyone else. I will advertise this to noone, unless they ask, or run into it on someone elses recommendation. That's the only way I can justify to myself keeping a public journal of this sort.
In no way do I consider myself so important as to assume that any announcment I wish to make should be immediately read and welcomed by those who know me, as a public post with no specific audience almost nearly implies. Nor do I feel any incredible need be heard. Writing is an excercise in thought streaming, it helps me come up with new ideas, ones I almost would have never been able to come to otherwise. I think it's because I sit down with no particular topic idea, and my mind is forced into finding one.
So know this O' reader: This is not, nor do I think it has ever been a daily update into my wonderful, all so important to the world life. What going on's and plans are announced are written for my own recollection in years to come. Livejournal is a convenient format for my to keep a journal, and thats all it is.

Thats all for now...tired.
