Belated sticky post

[calzephyr]

I still regularly x-post to LJ and participate in LJ communities such as The Question Club and Vintage Ads. I'm also a wordsmith for 1Word1Day on LJ. My art LJ is still active too - Purple Pony Art.

If you are an old LJ friend, drop me a note and let's reconnect!

I've deleted my LJ journal because of the advertising and the privacy concerns and everything.

I haven't been able to make a decision yet. I imagine there's some Russian info gather who wonders how my birds are doing and can't wait for the latest update.

I'm probably more paranoid than you are. I'm more paranoid than most people I know.

Aww, poor pink ghostie. I'm not sure I have that problem. I'm able to define the trouble better, but I've more often gone through old letters or emails and such and think, "Wow, I was that articulate back then too?!"

What I especially like is coming to terms with why I lose "my cool". It's often for an admirable reason: lack of proper communication and understanding. I saw the same thing in good friends I have now, what the point was of them losing "their cool". Not the exact reasons I did, but they were very admirable and made sense. So in getting anxious and upset, it all was so valid. I find comfort in that. (Though I prefer we all have fun and not lose "our cool", of course!)

Oh, and I had LJ, too. A couple I think. I remember printing a bunch from one and giving up on the other, or I don't know. But that's why I came here. Not for the info-grab but because LJ added "like" buttons of some kind and I got grossed out. Not so worried about an info-grab because I'm not sure what the point would be. I'm so chatty they could just come and ask me who I am and what I like.
