Here I Am

I'm not really sure about this livejournal thing. I know the ins and outs and how it works... But what makes one person successful and what makes other people annoying and well... invisible? It's not that I'm new to this. I've spent years fiddling around on the internet. I've run websites, tried the whole blogging thing for a short time and then disappeared for awhile. I've got friends who are heavily involved in livejournal. I guess I've been content to watch from the sidelines whilst I struggled through real life stuff.

Funny thing is, there is no one reading this posting. I've not told anyone about this livejournal. So far I belong to no groups, have no one friended, don't really comment on LJ's and really have no current fandom that I pledge allegiance too. (I'm in the fandom market, but haven't decided if I should actually find a fandom or just stay free of them for awhile...)

So here I am. Giving it a go. There's no theme, no nothing.

Which is appropriate given my mood at the moment. I wouldn't quite call it 'home sickness.' I've been away from home for almost 5 years now. I guess I'm just missing the people and places (and kitty cats) that are most familiar to me. Oddly enough, I think I miss my cat more then my parents right now (and from what I hear from my parents, they'd be happy to give her back to me and not see her for a long time. She's... a little spoiled.)

So there's somber mood 1: missage

Somber mood 2 involves being stuck in a rut artistically. There are so many projects I dream up that don't ever seem to go anywhere. I must do something about that.

On the plus side, my waitressing uniform is sitting outside my door waiting to be trashed. Four years of hell ended last sunday. Thank you GOD!
