The Age of Temps

I can only catch up with Livejournal on the weekends. My priority: all the people who comment. Then, if time allows, everyone else. So, if you haven't heard from me, it's not because I'm ignoring you - I'm just too busy and deprived of this elemental addiction.

If you don't hear from in weeks then it means you never comment in my journal and therefore I've lost the time and energy to bother with your journal. It's a lack-of-time thing.

Feel free to defriend me - I can't see myself becoming too active in this thing anytime soon. I'm probably the most boring LJ friend for you right now. Go ahead, no hard feelings.

But, if you are in this for the long run (like myself) then don't defriend me. I might get a computer in a year's time, and return all glorious and triumphant! It will be a sight to behold.

I hope these instructions made sense.

Thanks and have a good day.

i can't defriend you. i'm secretly and inconsciously in love with you, and you're supposed to only figure this out when i'm on my deathbed and, reading my will, you realise i've given you everything i own - ie. a collection of plastic yellow ducks.

Your collection of ducks will be very welcome in my sad, empty bath tub.

I've paid to marry LJ for a year so I'll stay :D

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:44 am (UTC)(link)
I wish I could get an arranged marriage too.

[identity profile] idioticpoet.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 06:28 am (UTC)(link)
I've been considering making a similar post.

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
Go ahead. You'll get tons of replies. ;)

We should leave livejournal behind and go to the pub instead.

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
I'm all for that. CJ has also been talking about it, and Rosie too... we could leave Livejournal for an evening and sit around with pints in our hands.

[identity profile] vilia64.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
"Your mission, should you choose to accept it...." haha

I need to get a new computer myself-

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
It's a bummer. I'm trying to find a used one because I can't afford anything brand new right now.

[identity profile] suddenflight.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
I could never delete you.

Well, I could... but I'd regret it.

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
You'd only earn yourself a stalker.

[identity profile] 4q.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 07:07 am (UTC)(link)
I am never leaving your side, even if you hate me. Which is impossible

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
very correct. :)

[identity profile] medusa.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
Well, rest assured that you won't be missing much! LJ has become really boring and I am thinking of chucking the whole thing in at some point in the near future as well! I don't think excessive internet usage goes with babies anyway so I won't have time for all this bollocks!

We should ring each other up sometimes - I miss our epic chats!

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps you don't need to chuck it away... just take a break from it. It was hard for me at first, but now I can see that reading up on your friends once a week isn't so bad after all. I'd still like my own computer at home but just have to accept that it's not possible.

And, if you ever want to chat, just txt me with your phone number or something! I'm always at home in the evening. :)

[identity profile] roguejournal.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
i will be the last person on earth to delete you.

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
You created me, after all!

[identity profile] jeffster.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 08:13 am (UTC)(link)
i fear for the amount of crazy soap opera i'm about to get myself into and you'll miss it... :0(

cuidate...i'm stickin with ya!

If you ever have a problem with your flip-flops disappearing, you know who to contact.

"I'm probably the most boring LJ friend for you right now"

I'm not saying any names but believe me you are not.

sorry...I'll try to be more entertaining

I don't think I could un-friend you if I tried.

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
That's very encouraging, seeing that we have only known each other for a short time. ;)

[identity profile] dilvalicious.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 08:42 am (UTC)(link)
hey Bitch!

You best make time for me, your darling canadian friend!

(Well, one of your darling canadian friends, anyway)

Reading Dilva is like comfort food.

[identity profile] crushedoutgirl.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 08:58 am (UTC)(link)
being a person who tends to take time off from LJ a lot, due to being busy, i totally understand your situation. plus, i wouldn't de-friend someone for that anyway. live long and prosper.

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
I only meant de-friending for people who aren't here for the long-haul, who see my journal as more of a curiosity rather than someone they want to get to know. I'd never delete or stop reading the people who I've grown to know (like you), although I might find myself reading less of them (well, only during the weekends... or on my lunch break, like now.)

[identity profile] myendeavorca.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 09:08 am (UTC)(link)
ha! you didn't de-friend me when I had my "LJ is dead" moment! you know you can't resist us anyway!!!!!

[identity profile] jenny-dreadful.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 10:09 am (UTC)(link)
Nahhh, I like you ;)

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
Good... cause I like you too. Guess what, I saw an add for a show Siouxsie is going to be doing here soon. She will be performing classic stuff from her band, but with an orchestral assemble!!!

[identity profile] violentlyhappy.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 11:30 am (UTC)(link)
Não vou apagar-lhe da minha lista dos amigos - você é demasiado agradável e divertindo, não me incomoda esperar as suas entradas! ♥ Não esqueça de enviar-me logo um email, se você tiver o tempo, mas não faz mal!

Até logo meu! =o)

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
Obrigado! Eu sinto saudades de escrever aqui todos os dias, mas infelizmente tenho tao pouco tempo durante a semana que vou depender bastante dos fins de semana... I hope all is well with you.

[identity profile] dawnage.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 12:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you go to an internet cafe at the weekend, then?

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
I use the local library, which is free... and the internet cafe if I still have stuff to read...

by the way, I noticed that i was on your friends list far before that whole "dawnage_undead" thing... so forgive me for forgetting!

:)

DEFRIENDED!

[identity profile] ickycrawlything.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 01:27 pm (UTC)(link)
My oh my...how are you? I have to catch up on your journal....a entire months worth! Time is always against me.

I'm big, I waddle and I have a square ass.

Re: DEFRIENDED!

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
I'm doing good... I've been meaning to check up on you - hadn't seen your journal or heard from you in a while. I hope you are doing good! I'm saving myself some "read-Luni" time this weekend.

Don't mention that to my other "best friends" or you'll be in trouble.

[identity profile] dreamwarrior.livejournal.com 2004-09-08 03:36 pm (UTC)(link)
i will keep ya on my list i wouldn't befriend you...

[identity profile] desayuno-ingles.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 08:55 am (UTC)(link)
never worry that we will find your less-than-wonderfully frequent posts will bore us. I'll miss you, but I will keep up with you. And I will always comment. Hey, maybe we could send real letters? Email me your new address, I'll get started. I got a new pack of Schiele postcards and beautiful ink. Yay!

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 09:13 am (UTC)(link)
That would be lovely! I love writing and receiving letters... i'll see if I can find your email...

[identity profile] pitseleh.livejournal.com 2004-09-09 07:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I haven't been much of a commenter lately.. but I'm still here reading, Ollie :)

am xo

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-09-10 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
Same here... I'm always happy to see you've updated.
