Hey, I've been here a while now...

[elisi]

Well, 'a while' is actually six months. Not sure if it feels longer or shorter. What I *do* know is that I've enjoyed myself here and found some truly remarkable friends. I've read so many interesting and thought provoking essays and analysis's (?) that it'd be impossible to name them all. And I've enjoyed some wonderful fics and been inspired to write more of my own, never mind the fact that I'll never be as good as some of you talented people out there.

Also, this is my 140th post (missed the 100th completely a while ago) and I'm rather astonished... to think that I was worried that I'd have nothing to write in my shiny new LJ half a year ago.

I wanted to make this post really good and exciting, but that was reckoning without my brain, which has not been on speaking terms with me all day. So you'll all have to imagine the clever, brilliant and witty things I was going to write! Anyway, I'm working hard on my WIP and I've actually started writing that essay on 'Crush' that I mention now and again... looks like it's going to be long though.

So I guess this is really about all you guys out there - thank you for being so friendly and welcoming, you have no idea how much it means to me. ::hugs::

Congratulations! Many witty things have appeared here and it's no trouble to imagine what wittiness might have materialized today. Wow, 140 posts? Good lord, that's close to one a day. You were one of the first on my flist and I always enjoy your posts--even when I'm passing through on a whirlwind tour of LJ in the middle of a school assignment.

I, on the other hand, have been here almost as long, but I have only a handful of posts and intermittent commenting. Lame, lame, lame.

I know - I was really surprised at my own wordiness!
But then I guess I have more time to waste here - what with no school or job (except for the children of course!!!)

I'll bet you spend way more time being a mom than I do being a student. Yours is a 24 hours, 7 days a week job. And my degree isn't going to take 18 years or more...I hope.

Well, that's probably true - and the workload is differently distributed. And good luck with your degree btw. :)
