rivkaOkay, so this is Live Journal.
I'm not sure about this.
Lots of people I know are doing it. Sometime in the past two months the number got high enough for me to notice; since then I've been curious, but definitely ambivalent. (Why isn't "ambivalent" an option on the "moods" menu? What about "uncertain, or "hesitant," or "cautious?" Why are we all supposed to be so emotionally labile, not to mention emotionally intense? Maybe I'm too old for this.)
Anyway. Having a live journal strikes me as narcissistic, and yet there's a certain appeal to it anyway. I guess it's an opportunity to put forth random thoughts and momentary fascinations and rambling introspections without actually inflicting them on anyone.
I'm not sure I'll keep it up for very long, or post very often, or have much to say. Already, thinking about my life, I find that I'm marking great quantities of things as inappropriate for public posting. I guess we'll see how it works out.
Maybe no one who knows me will find it. *grin* That would work okay.
