contemplativeAll of that has gone out the window since
tiashome seduced me, sent me an invitation code for LJ. I am now so committed to keeping my livejournal up-to-date that I haven't got time anymore to visit my old buddies at Yahoo!Clubs or Delphi Forums. Though sometimes I sneak in and read the latest messages from people I used to know -- and the random The The lyrics going round my head at the moment 'You smile and think how much you've changed/All the money in the world/Couldn't bring back those days' are strangely apt to describe how I feel when I go there.Plus, I really really hate the format of Yahoo!Clubs!
I'm coming up to my first anniversary on LJ, where I have found so many lovely people to share things with. But if I'm honest: gone are the days that I used to bare all in my online scribblings. I'm far more careful of the information I make available in my weblog than I used to be in the tight circle of cyberfriends I had before. And I wonder, is this a good thing or not? If I censor myself, even in those entries I mark 'Private', what business have I got keeping a web diary in the first place?
Meanwhile... "Sarah Michelle Gellar’s deal to resurrect Buffy the Vampire Slayer in the May 19 series finale of Angel is all but signed in blood: "If she’s available, she’ll do it," her manager promises. " TV Guide interview with JW.
