I met a meta journal
Heh. I was removed from a friend's friends list, and saw that they had a post basically saying "I'm culling my friends list, if you want to stay on, please respond". So I was going to reply to say "Hey, that's cool if you're uncomfortable keeping me on your list - I know my posts are probly boring to you, but I liked reading about you, even if I didn't comment much". Except that... well, they've made it so people not on their friends list can't post to their journal. Oops.
So if anyone wants to tell![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
fiannaharpar that I would have posted that to her journal, feel free :)
Bleh, I suck. I try really hard to keep this as a journal for myself primarily, so I write a lot. I want to be able to go back and remember big chunks of my life from reading my entries. That's important to me. But, I'm not sure how to do it in a way that doesn't alienate other people... since I like being able to read other people's journals, especially the friends-only ones. And lj-cutting all of them doesn't *really* seem like a solution to me, because a) then I have trouble rereading my own journal 'cause I have to keep clicking on all the links, and b) about half the time I don't bother to read through major LJ-cuts unless they're tagged well.
Oh well. I'll ponder it on the bus to work (yes, I'm running late).

I know just what you mean about trying to sort through large volumes of text, mostly behind lj-cuts, for one specific fact. I suspect that the other half of the most efficient technique is to download your own journal frequently and make local searches using that, but that's just a guess.
I enjoy your journal very much - I like reading about all the cool ways you have of having fun, I like reading about what you're thinking. (Even when it's not so happy, though obviously we all prefer reading happy!Deanna to unhappy!Deanna.) I do like the pictures, both human and duck, too. :-) Keep going the way you want to keep going and I bet I'll continue to enjoyu it in the future!
