Insert Witty Subject Title Here or not


Pete Wentz keeps on pulling games today; I don't even know how he's captivating my interest, but between my chores today, I've been all over icecreamheadaches.

So there have been some rumblings about LJ. I don't really think it'll be gone from good; but I do enjoy preparation when I'm alert to life. Here is some info, so we can keep in touch, just in case:

This is my IJ account.  I'm wishfulclicking on there too. Add me or something :) I know some people are backing up their LJs, but I'm still relatively new and I don't have a ton of material yet; so I'm just going to copy some of the important posts from this journal (you know the waving dick post has to be around for propserity! and the first panic experience!) The plan is for me to go through and see the posts I want to save and then copy the HTML for them there. I will probably leave the picspam of hotness though.

This is me on twitter. I've referenced this before but yeah, there it is again.

I'm wishfulclicking on AIM also; so add me or something. I'm on often enough and I'm always willing to chat :)

In more fun news....so I may have read a Merlin AU with Merlin/Arthur today. (college AU that is so good, I recommend it to you even if you are not into the fandom!) It was beyond spectacular and I fear I may be sucked into another fandom. Merlin has the potential to be my SGA, a show I barely watch but a fandom I adore. Really, I need another fandom like I need another tit--sure it'll be fun, but a complete time waster. This is where I kick myself off the internet for insane similes!

What's happening in the world of LJ??? Everyone is going on about backing up their journals... but why???

Some of the LJ staff got fired so people are saying it may eventually shut down. Most people have calmed down now but some are making back journals on Insane Journal just in case.

I don't want LJ to shut down... I love this place far too much... I've had a journal for years (even before this name) and yeah *whimpers*
I dunno whether or not to back up my journal just in case....???

I don't want LJ to shut down either; I'm just getting used to it.

Hmmm....I don't have a ton of material here, so I'm just copying and pasting some of my fav entries; but I know some people are using ljarchive to backup their entire journal. I haven't used it but others have and they say it worked. (It only worked for Windows though)

It wouldn't hurt to back it up though, just to be prepared. Any posts you really want to save.

I'm going to keep thinking positively and hope this place doesn't shut down. I'd like to think they'd give us plenty of warning anyway if there were going to.
