H-h-happy New Year! Even though I've not been around much I've been thinking of you all, and hoping you're having a marvelous time, whatever you're up to. This will be one of my last LJ posts, just so you know.


This is one of my last posts to LJ. I say "one of" because there are housekeeping issues. (And one issue where I'm just vain.)

-SETTING UP A FEED TO MY IJ, and why I suck at technology. Kids, this seems to be the relevant link for setting up a feed to me, but I'm confused by the part where only a permanent account can create a feed. Does that mean once the feed is created, anyone else can access it? So I should ask someone with a permanent account to create a feed to me that other people can use? Am I understanding this right? Meanwhile, I am going to shell out for a permanent IJ account, which means once I do that (HOUSEKEEPING!) I'll be adding all of you who don't have or aren't using IJs. Any help with answers to my questions on this would be appreciated.

ETA: Click here to add a feed of my ij to your lj. Thanks, [livejournal.com profile] germaine_pet!

-Today I transferred ALL my LJ posts onto my IJ, using the nifty LJ-Sac. Meanwhile, I wanna know if anyone's figured out how to transfer comments and/or tags. Anyone?

-I've said several times I was going to delete this LJ. I planned on that because LJ wasn't offering what I wanted and so I had no use for their services any more. I didn't realize until about a month ago that deleting this journal meant I wouldn't be able to access any flocked posts, or comment in journals that don't allow anon commenting. Once I'd realized this I realized deleting this would be like shooting myself in the foot, so I'm keeping this around a while longer. I will not be updating (after this or another post or two to satisfy the housekeeping and vanity issues). I will only be keeping this journal in order to view the journals of those with locked posts dear to my heart. Meanwhile, [livejournal.com profile] germaine_pet, [livejournal.com profile] fodian, and [livejournal.com profile] seraphcelene will be having parties over on IJ WITHOUT YOU.

-I will be making at least one other post here to satisfy my VANITY, in which I must announce which fic I wrote for [livejournal.com profile] hd_holidays. I figure it doesn't violate the whole "I'm leaving!" deadline I set myself because it was written and posted in 2007. Anyway, I want to know what the few of you who read Harry/Draco thought of it. If you guess which one I wrote before they announce it I will give you PRIZES.


In some ways 2007 was the worst year of my life. Before you offer me tissues or tell me to suck it up: I've lived the most charmed, happy life anyone could ask for, so much so that saying this year was the worst isn't saying much. I just was unhappy and had a lot of personal shit happen.

I know it sounds cheesy, but one big thing that always made me feel better and helped me pull through was all of you. I got to meet several of you this year and those were some high times in my life. And some others of you whom I haven't met, I cherished conversing with over email from time to time. Sometimes I'm a bad contact ([livejournal.com profile] crazydiamondsue and [livejournal.com profile] imnotacommittee I owe emails in particular), but as I said at the top of this rapidly devolving into mush post: you mean a lot to me. On that note, [livejournal.com profile] chrisleeoctaves and [livejournal.com profile] a2zmom, thanks ever so for the holiday cards (and cds, R! Haven't listened to them yet, but looking forward to it--).

Alright, so look for me on IJ after this. Love ya, and hope you guys had a splendid day today.
