so that's what's going on with me (sorry it's so boring)

It occurs to me that I haven't posted here in awhile. But you know how the longer you go without posting, the harder it is to get back into it? That's why I've been sitting here with this window open for like two hours, staring at a blank box and thinking about how I don't actually have anything to say

I don't ever post what I'm doing on LJ. I just use it for my fics. I do keep up with what everyone else it doing though. I hope you find that job you're looking for. I could use a big change as well, but I'm not sure how to go about it yet. I keep hoping for inspiration from other people. So far, no go, but I'll keep looking.

And I will always be happy to hear that you're writing. It gives me hope for something good to read.

I miss when LJ was an ongoing conversation. These days it's all anon memes and pretty much nothing else. Tumblr kind of makes me rage-y, though, so I am trying to minimize my time there.

Maybe it's just time for me to be done with fandom. I'll still post about life and whatnot, though. And one of these days here I'll actually finish one of the books I'm allegedly writing.

I miss when LJ was an ongoing conversation.

Me too!

Not having anything to say has never stopped the rest of us...

I'm glad to hear that you're making some progress toward moving to NY, even if it is all in the tentative stage still.

I used to post nothing all the time! But then LJ started dying and I got distracted with job hunting, which is frustrating, but I certainly don't have to tell you that.

I forget about LJ for days on end, which is really sad. I've been here for over 11 years and miss the wild party it used to be. Tumblr's almost too much of a wild party at times, though of distinctly lower quality. ;)

Lots of good vibes outgoing from me! It impresses me that you wouldn't be afraid of NYC. I lived on L.I. in the '70s and found the City terrifying. Thrilling too, of course, but I'd have been far too much of a hick to try living there. Good on ya. [gratuitous use of '70s-era userpic to prove I was alive then, as was my mother]

[carolinecrane]

Aw, I love that picture! I, too, was alive in the 70s, albeit much smaller than you. :)

I don't find NYC scary at all. I guess I will always be a city girl, no matter how many people try to make me content with the suburbs. I find the city comforting in a way that's hard to explain. Maybe it's the sense of being alone in a crowd that appeals to me. Or maybe I just haven't gotten enough sleep.

It is hard to get back into it after a while. Also, I feel silly posting when I don't have that much to share, but feel even sillier posting actual content: these days so few people (if any) respond to posts and that makes it a tad painful at times when you're posting something that does matter to you. Conclusion, not posting altogether is the easiest way out for me. ;)

Anyway, I hear you on the wanting to make changes right away after making the decision. But if it's any consolation, I have been able to do just that once or twice myself and apparently things work out better when changing things a little less instantaneous. Maybe that's just me though. Of course your plans sound incredibly exciting and I can imagine waiting is becoming increasingly difficult.

I am glad to hear from you. I tried out Tumblr...for about 5 minutes! Oh, well. You know me. I do hope you just post occasionally to talk about your doings and maybe the lack of doings. I know how odd it feels to post about not much, tho. After having built in things to say for a year it's weird to have to actually come up with topics on my own!

Best wishes on the continuing job search. I do, indeed, have my fingers crossed for you.
