It's always about me, me, me, isn't it?
This is what I've just thought after I started to type this post. I was about to tell you all (and anyone else who drives by) that my absence from LJ will probably prolong a little while longer, but then I realised that no-one notices one's absense if one doesn't point it out explicitly (I admit, I rarely do) (Which doesn't mean I don't like you all, I'm just not all that observant). Anyway, I don't have an Internet connection at home at the moment (a rather long moment, I admit), and I can't be bothered to interact with fandom from some public Internet facilities or others (the library, mostly). I still read my f-list religiously every day, but I rarely comment. I also read all received comments religiously, but I often don't answer. The reason for my silence is not my ignoring you; however, I more and more feel that I don't have anything new to contribute, which I why I save my breath (so to speak) and remain silent. As interesting as I find many ideas/concepts/theories/discussions, I don't think that anything I add will give them an interesting new direction.
So, I am still here, but I am lurking around invisibly.I might spam you a bit more with stories of drunken revels with young boys, but even those get tedious after some time. If I owe you a comment, a mail or money, it is nothing personal. Honestly.
I felt I should say that, because I owe plenty of comments, and I don't think I'll ever catch up on them. But believe me, I wouldn't say anything insightful anyway.

Date: 2005-08-10 08:01 am (UTC)You know, I'm much more interested in RL and TMI (yeah, that sort of TMI haha) stuff right now anyway, so.. uhh. I actually miss reading about those kinds of things in other people's LJs.
PS: Your life is so exciting!!! ;) No, really! Ah, well, the thing with the police? Not something I'd like to happen to me, heh, but still.. Okay, my life isn't allllll that boring either, but hmmmm.

Date: 2005-08-10 08:05 am (UTC)I am currently more interested in people's RL stuff, too. I usually skim though fandom stuff, but I read RL anecdotes. And TMI, of course. I like TMI.
My life is not all that exciting; I only pick the best bits to post about. (Hm, boys and booze... Oh dear.)

Date: 2005-08-10 08:12 am (UTC)Same here. And lots of people are posting about SGA? SG? SG-something these days. And I don't know that fandom! Hell, I don't even know the canon (and I'm not interested in getting to know it, either..)! So.. yeah. (Ah, I think I know what the abbreviation(s) stand(s) for, but that's about it.)
Donna & boys & booze go together well. :P
