Friends Only
Like, OMG! This journal is FRIENDS ONLY. Because I said so. Because I want to keep out random crazies and people I don't like and people who don't like me. So if you want to read it, you have to comment in this entry saying so. You have to tell me who you are and why you want to read my journal. If you're not stupid/mean/an idiot/someone I just don't feel comfortable adding to my friends list, I'll add you to my friends list and you will then be able to read my journal. Don't forget to add me back, LOL.
If I know you from some other place online or in Real Life and you used to read my journal when it was public, and you still want to read it, you're going to have to sign up for a LiveJournal account and use it to post a comment to this entry asking to be added to my friends list. Sorry! You don't have to use your account to keep a journal if you don't want to; you can just use it to be able to read my journal if that's all you need it for.
New friends are invited to read my older entries and comment on them if you want to. Just because an entry is "old" doesn't mean I don't still want comments on it!
