…’sup?

you know i still read you, right? like, every day? i even check a few times each day for updates.

but you never (ok, maybe not never, more like “rarely”) have something to say.

why is that, livejournal? you know i still like you? really really like you! sure, i spend a lot of time with twitter (and occasionally facebook, even though it sucks and not in a good way), you were my first. <3 HAHA that sounds so cheesy. but i guess it's true, i can't think of any other blogging platforms i've used before livejournal, and the only one that i've surpassed my 5268 posts with is twitter (and i've definitely typed more than 737,520 characters in my livejournal. i remember back in the day when people used to FEAR my posts because i posted a lot of text back in the day. several times a day, too!) just to show you that i'm not going anywhere, livejournal, i've opted to pay for my other 70 icons that i have that i haven't used in ages since i let them lapse months (years?) ago. i'm looking at them now and i totally forgot about a lot of these, and also totally forgot about how chuckles some of them are. see? maybe you need a little fixing up, that could be partly to blame. i can’t remember when i last touched my profile page, for example. if i do change it, i should at least save a copy like a time capsule, haha.

holy crap, i’ve been using livejournal off and on for almost 9 1/2 years now. that could be, what, from birth to 4th grade? middle, high and first year of college? (in my case, it’s undergraduate degree + 2 years). 9 1/2 years of moving that cursor over to the right. that’s a lot of typing. even with neglecting posting for long periods of time, that’s still an average of 1.5 posts per day, EVERY DAY, from march 15, 2001 through today.

ok, livejournal, i’m sorry i’ve neglected you. i hope you still want to talk to me – let’s kiss and make up! and if you’re reading this, go write something for me to read! i bet livejournal is filled with people browsing but not posting, and so it’s like an awkward silence that just convinces more people to not bother posting. hence this post.

but now… i sleep now.
