updating

I was scanning through my friends list and I realized that there are a rather large number of people on my friends list that I don’t really know. Many others I suspect don’t actually read my journal anymore, but they are worried about the politics of “unfriending” people.

I am going to be pruning my friends list. It is not a statement that I hate you. It really is not. If I hated you I would have ditched your sorry ass long ago. Instead, this is just my way of having a better idea of who is actually reading my journal. I have filters largely so that I can know who has what information and if you never read it there is no point in giving you access to it.

If you do actually read and want to keep reading, this post is your chance to say, “Hey! I really was here! I was just here…. quietly…” 🙂

Comments are screened so that you don’t have to let the whole world know what you want to say to me.

I suppose this could also be a good time to say random things to me in general. 🙂

      Re: New to LJ

      I try really hard to keep my friends list to only people that I know. So once we actually get to know one another I will probably be happy to add you. I write about the most personal stuff you can imagine and I’m just not comfortable sharing that with people I don’t know. 🙂

    When the mood hits your eye like a big pizza pie that’s amore.

    When you swim by the reef and get bit by sharp teeth, that’s a moray.

    Please to be not dropping me!

    I haven’t commented much but I’ve been an avid reader and intend to continue to do so. Sorry I haven’t seen you lately at the Plough or Gaskell’s, but I do hope to get back into dancing sometime soon.

    Well, I read what you write on here, just a bit quietly. 🙂
    Feel free to put me on or remove me from whatever filters you wish.

    I admit that I ususally just skim your BDSM posts, but I do read most of your other posts. Add me back or not. I will not be offended if you don’t.

      Ok. I thought you might have fallen off the planet. If you don’t read the heavy stuff I don’t need to put you on the filter.

      You should post.

    I really do read your LJ at least once per week… good to keep up.

    Hugs!

    hi!

    I DO read. All the time. I think there are scene report posts that I don’t see, but I wish I could.

    I read because:
    – You are Marcie’s friend and my friend and I care how you are doing.
    – You have lots of strong opinions that frequently prompt a lot of thought.
    – You talk about thoughts and feelings around kink. Even when you don’t intend to teach, you say things that I find instructive.
    – I have recently been diagnosed as bipolar II, and am pretty freaked out about it. I know you live with this yourself, and you seem to do a good job of respecting your feelings and understanding what they mean. I could use some help there too, as well as with just not beating the crap out of myself for being nuts.

    I don’t comment much, it’s true. I’m somewhat quiet to begin with, and I don’t post online much in general. I tend to comment when I think I know something that might help the original poster. You have lots of good friends who know you well, you have very solid values, and you have good judgement. You haven’t needed any advice from me *wink*.

    I appreciate being on your friends’ list, hope you don’t mind leaving me there, and would love to be able to see more Scene-related posts if you were comfortable with that.

    And btw, saw the pics of your boy, and that ain’t no Puppy–looks more like a Wolf. Grrrr, baby.

    You Go.

      Re: hi!

      I will change your filter level. 🙂

      I am really sorry about the diagnosis because it means you will have a lot of work to do to learn to deal with your disorder but I am really happy about it because now you understand what you are up against and you can manage that better.

      He’s yummy!!! I wanna keep him. 🙂

    I’m here.

    I got your message, and am just not in a place where I can deal with it, or respond to it, in any meaningful manner. Thank you for sending it. We may talk later when I’m up to it.

    Until then, expect silence from my end.

    I actually do read your journal… really. Although keeping up with you can be difficult at times. 😉

    I’ve learned so much from your insights and growth experiences, K/L. You’re a very special person, and I would like to continue to learn more.

    Warm regards,
    Charmaine

      I am no harder to keep up with than frenzi once was and you were one of the big posters there. So I feel no guilt. 😉

      You have had many years to watch my writing change. It would be really interesting for me to know how you have seen things change.
