I was just thinking about you, in fact. I believe (courtesy of FB) that you have a birthday coming up, so I hope it's a good one!
I'm still here, since 2002 or so (aak!). FB is OK for RL stuff, but LJ has its own charms, one of which is the permanence. I still remember your spider posts fondly and like to think I can go back to them from time to time. I also liked to marvel over your amazing SHOES!
LJ is great for community interests. It's a wonderful place to get together and discuss topics in depth and it's neat that the stuff stays around. I don't think anywhere else works so well for that kind of thing, so I'd be reading if you do come back.
There is a certain charm about this place that is quite irreplaceable indeed. You are right about the permanence! And there is just so much of my life in this place that it is quite amazing. I think I started in 2003/4? I can't even remember, if I don't check my first entry LOL!
This might be a bit morbid but I was thinking to myself the other day -- while it's nice to have my own site hosted separately etc, one day when I'm dead and gone, all my bank accounts closed and auto-payments cancelled, that site will cease to exist, while my Livejournal would live on forever. Now that's quite a thought! :D
Thank you for thinking about me! <3 I have missed posting here, especially to my secret audience, if the rest are still around! :) I went to read some of my locked posts and it was so amusing! I may really have to consider coming back here. :)
