an entry where i ramble on for a while and then completely run out of steam

There’s something very special and sort of forgiving about livejournal. You can make mistakes here, say the wrong thing, use it as a confessional, document your day, reflect on events long past, reveal the secret shining desires and dreams of your heart, be a goof, be serious, be angry, fill it with squee, unload your worries and troubles, vent

We entrust a small and mostly anonymous group of individuals with the intimate and little moments of our livesYears ago before the advent of innerwebs, say in the 70's and 80's, I flew a lot for work. Most were cross country flights that would take 5 to 6 hours just enough time to hear someones life story or tell my own

Now tell me my anonymous friend, can Crackbook do that for you?
Nope, it can't. That's one of the reasons why I love anonymous sites like this.

That is very well written :)

I couldn't agree with you more. I left LJ for awhile. I explored MySpace and Facebook, but I didn't like the character limits. I love wordy thoughts being expressed. I still use Facebook, but only to keep up with a few friends who simply don't have the time to be on LJ.

I explored Facebook as well and still have it, but became extremely annoyed with some of the dumb things people would post every 5 minutes it seemed. I mean who cares what you're eating for dinner every night or saying good night every day. I only keep it around now for material for my LJ, such as jokes, weird news stories, etc. I love LJ and have been on here since 2003 and can't imagine ever leaving. :)

[jadedphreak]

I've been on LJ since 2001. I think it's insane the things people will post on Facebook. Who cares that you're going to work...just like everyone else? Attempts at being funny. I prefer getting to know people on LJ.

LJ for life.

[robvansam]

Oh wow, I didn't even know LJ was around back in 2001. You're definitely a fellow LJ 4 lifer :)

Oh I couldn't agree more. So damn annoying what people post on there, the stupidest things. And there's no privacy either which annoys me. I don't like being tagged of where I was. I don't need people knowing I'm not home at a certain time.

Yeah, I find LJ much more intimate and the people more engaging and enjoyable to engage in conversations. I love seeing people interact as well on my LJ and become friends with one another. Truly brings a smile to my face.

I've always said nothing beats the original and for me the original has always been LJ. I never left LJ, but I did find myself unmotivated for most of the past couple of years until earlier this year I just had that "LJ itch" and was on a mission to revitalize things on here and breath new life on LJ. Have made so many new friends off this year including Jen a few months ago :)

[newmistakes]

And as a new friend of yours, I'm very glad you have :) I'm enjoying getting to know you so stick around!!

[schpydurx]

As much as I haven't been around, I love you too Jen and love reading what you write and when the mood strikes, I like writing something for you to read.

[newmistakes]

This is undoubtedly the loveliest comment you've ever left me, Tomas! I love reading your entries too :)

You do realise I'm going to remind you of this comment whenever you attempt to call me out about something or poo-poo one of my entries?? :P Oh yeah, I'm going to get a lot of mileage from this!!

[sircaliban]

I love you too..

[newmistakes]

Awwww thanks Jet/Cal, right back at ya! But even though I think you're fantastic, there's just no way my monkey minions are changing your villain name to Kai :P
