Hello dreamwidth. It's been a while

vintagewitchI don't know why I'm logging on today. Probably because someone I follow on Twitter was talking about how they miss the anonymous and intimate world of Livejournal (the good years - circa 2003-2008). I miss that too. I miss having a space to record what's going on with me and my life that doesn't matter, that is somewhat ephemeral, that lives in this keyboard, behind this screen.
I can't seem to keep a paper journal. I want to, I love stationery, but I most often work behind a screen. It helps me get the words out faster.
I used to write in here for community, but I doubt anyone's listening now. Maybe I just want to scream into the void.
(How VERY emo of me.)
It's ok though. If this keeps me doing some things, documenting life, that's all for the better. I do worry about losing access to Dreamwidth, but I'm not quite sure why. I think it's because I can't access my oldest Livejournal, and I wish I could. I want to look back over my memories, to see what was REALLY going on there. How much was I kidding myself?
But I don't write memoir. I don't need to know the exact details of that time in my life. Maybe they're best left locked away on Russian servers.
Now I'm just procrastinating. Time to take some bacopa and get back to work.
