The Patriotic Earthling - For my convenience...

You should try out del.icio.us it lets you keep all your bookmarks on line and tag them so they're easier to find and share. I largely use mine for fic I want to read again, but also all sorts of other links. You can see mine here.

The more I see of you the more I love you!

ThinkGeek is our favorite store! :D

I'm adding this to my memories, so I can click around some new sites when things get slow.

*blinkblink* Cool! Enjoy!

You know, this was the only entry in months posted merely for my convenience, and it gets commented on while stuff posted withe the express purpose of getting comments go un-commented-on.

Does this mean it's really okay to be myself??

Yep! Definitely!

(I know what you mean, too. I never opnened my journal to anyone but IRL friends because I knew my entries would bore them to tears - and I didn't want to try and figure out what would be 'good' to write... :)

I've always had an open LiveJournal, but I'd like to get my mom started on LJ so she won't bug me to call her as much, especially since I'm canceling my T-Mobile plan so I'm not stuck with two phones with bad connections while Chris is gone, and getting either an Alaska-based plan phone or a pay-as-you-go phone, and (anywho) I'm going to have to go through my whole LJ and custom-friend-group certain entries quietly.

Did that make any sense at all? Was that all one sentence? Really?

It makes total sense!

I actually had to make my journal friends only because my sister is incredibly nosey (she snoops on my younger (like 13 - 15yo) nieces and nephews on aol IM and she was actually reading all of her son's emails for a while - when her son was grown and in the military! She found a way to break in. It's crazy actually.... She was reading our emails to eachother and flipped out when I supported his marriage. He had been serving in the air force for 2 years and had already been to Iraq and back! I think that alone made him older than most men his age...)

Ha! The question now is: Did that make sense?

Anyway. Dangerously snoopy family = closed journal.

I love the idea of keeping in touch with your mom that way. You can post pictures too. (Plus I don't know about your mom - but for me it would be a while lot easier than calling....;)

I can understand being paranoid about a dangerously snoopy family. My family didn't really give enough of a shit to read my journals, but I got paranoid for awhile anyway and for several months wrote only in a memorized code.

It'd be easier than calling because a) she wants pictures and b) I'm probably going to just get a simple pay-as-you-go phone and the less I have to use it the better, especially long distance. Maybe I'll just create another LJ and back-date a bunch of stuff, and friend her with that.

But that's assuming she'll even want a LiveJournal, so I guess I'll find out the next time I call her.
