roxyI'm coming up on my 8th LJ year. Eight years! I can hardly believe that I've been here for that long, especially when I was sure once upon a time that I'd post a couple of BtVS ficlets and give it a rest. I'm still enjoying being here, even if things have changed. The climate, people, likes and dislikes--a few years ago I was stunned and horrified by the discovery of bestiality (still kind of traumatized by that whole thing) yet this year I'm following with great interest a story about a Jared werewolf and a poor lost Jensen who finds himself...seduced, in a way, by a wolf? And enjoying it. Hunh! That handbasket is getting bigger and bigger! And then there was that pony boy story last year I really liked, very much, omg. Not to mention the tons of underage SpN I write...let's not even pretend, my friends.
It's not that LJ corrupted poor innocent me, (in fact, sometimes, the whole thing is very educational, why I've--but I digress!) it's just that it gave me a place where a bunch of folks just like me hung out. A place where I don't have to feel quite as much a perv as I used to, though make no mistake, there are plenty of times I feel like a perv. RPS, I'm trying to look at you but frankly, it's hard to meet your eyes *koff* Real People Slash--someplace else I swore I'd never go and here my first SpN BB is RPS. Lawks. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
Like I said, I'm still enjoying it here, but I confess to giving some thought to letting it go because of the changes and the growing feeling that the tar is about up to my dinosaur knees--but you know, I just can't let it loose. And someday, when those of my friends who've wandered away come back to LJ like I know they will, I want them to be able to find me, porch lights still burning and a plate of chocolate chip cookies waiting by the fireplace. ;)

4/10/12 04:31 am (UTC)lust afterappreciate Whitney like it do. And I probably wouldn't have discovered my love for being tortured by stories that rip my heart out and semi-put it back together. lolLJ is very educational... and corrupting. hee That's what makes it fun. ;) Because, OMG! Before LJ, I was such a sweet, innocent, little girl who blushed at reading swear words in books... yeah, now, not much DOESN'T go. *hides* And I get to share what I learn with my nephew. That's what a good aunt does, right? Helps educate? Though, I don't know if he'll ever forgive me for me making him watch a few eps of Queer as Folk. Justin wasn't the only one who learned what rimming was. *EG*
If you ever feel the need to wander away, don't forget to leave a forwarding address, or else I'll be forced to hunt you down. *tries to look menacing* lol
*smothers you in hugs and kisses* ♥

4/15/12 04:53 am (UTC)*nods* The Whit love must be shared! I miss Whit like crazy. I wish I could shove him into SpN. I tried--I wrote the character Eric played on SpN once. It was fun, but I'd have liked it more if he'd been the mutant powered Whitney from Stand By Me (http://archiveofourown.org/works/354246).
You're such a kind and loving auntie--I hope your nephew is grateful for all the education and guidance you're giving him. HAHAHAHAAAA! Poor kid!!! LOL!
Say, remember the beautiful scarf you knit me? Did I tell you I bought a coat because it matched the scarf? Truth! When I brought the coat home the first thing BG said was, "Oh, it matches the scarf perfectly!" Yes, the scarf I had to snatch back from her time after time, lol! Anyhoo, I look fabulous in my scarf and matching coat! See? That's why I can never leave you! *GGG*

4/18/12 01:15 am (UTC)So I totally thought she'd like a light blue and dark blue scarf--those colors look so good on her and bring out her eyes, but no, she said gold and kelly green. I am perplexed. Anyway, you're in her good books...you actually have been for a long time, since you send such lovely cards and gifts but haven't shown up on our doorstep with a lot of rope and a burlap bag ready to steal her mommy...heee! Silly girl! Don't tell her about our plan to sneak away on a world-wide tour... ;)

4/18/12 03:57 am (UTC)LOL Good thing BG doesn't know me! MWHAHAHAHA!!!
Gold and Kelly green... I think I may actually have something to work for that. :D
Awww!!! I can't come kidnap you? *pouts* How bout if I just come visit and never leave? lol But then, my mom would be lost and miss me... Hmmm... must think this over some more. ;)
