I need to either renew my friendships with some of my old LJ friends, which I'm not sure about because it feels like a lot of time has gone by and I now skim most of the posts on my friends page, or I need to make some new LJ friends but I'm not really sure how to go about doing that. I'm out of practice, plus I'm really picky. And I'm only moving in fandom circles right now and there are nice people, but they only post about fandom and while I like reading their entries, I like having friends who I sort of know a little bit, not just what they like in fandom but sort of who they are. So, yeah, I'm really picky.
But I'm also unhappy with my LJ situation. I'm feeling the urge to post more and I like thinking that someone is reading my entries and I like them commenting on them and then discussing stuff further. Not that I'm commenting on anyone's entries. In fact, I'm sort of writing this assuming very few people on my flist will read it. If you do. . . sorry about the 3 years of neglect? XD Also, the other day I went through my hotmail account and found a comment left by cloudtrader almost a year ago that I saved to respond to later and then never did and I feel really bad about it. So, if you read this, sorry! And I miss you and I hope you enjoyed Comic Con, cos I'm guess you went!
So even though I'm feeling like writing, I get dampened by the knowledge that no one is reading it. Argh. I was thinking of making a fandom journal and indiscriminately friending fandom people and posting all my weird thoughts and theories in it, but then I thought i'd just start posting all my thoughts there and this journal would die and I'd be sad. So I think that's out. Also, I don't think I'd be able to lure people in with the promise of being able to read all my random theories and whatever. I mean, they might be a bit different and could have the potential for being interesting, but I don't think a lot of people would actually be interested.
Anyway, so that's a crisis that I've been trying to figure out how to solve. I'm not quite coming up with anything, because I don't think I can go out on a friending campaign, I wouldn't want to do that - track down people that I think would be good friends. I think I'm going to have to just try to be active and hope I sort of meet people that seem nice and interesting. (There are sometimes friending memes but I haven't seen any in a while and I don't think that's really my style. Cos it's like, friending people based on who they like in the fandom. If there was a fandom friending meme in which the content of the journals was discussed, I might be interested.)
That said, I'm going to write about The Band, even though I'm doing the Johnny's Entertainment fandom thing right now and if i wanted to go around friending people it might be good to write about something they know about, I don't know. Anyway, I've been thinking a lot about how much I love the Band, lately. Which I do all the time, but lately even more because the contrast between them and JE is so marked.
This is a little ineloquent because I'm tired and just sort of babbling because I've been wanting to talk about the Band for the past four days and I keep bringing them up in random places. Really, I need Band-loving people to talk to about this or something. I adore them.
