Ask and Tell

[wolven7]

I'm about to start calling "Bring Out Your Dead," here in LJ Land. It's freaking me out how quiet this place has gotten.

Let's curl up next to the fire, here at the end of the world, and tell each other stories.

Ask me anything. Tell me Anything.

What's it matter, right? The universe is ending any m--

You missed. It ended three weeks ago.

LJ doesn't look dead to me, but I have a lot of fandom communities on my reading list. This probably helps.

What's making you happy right now?

[wolven.livejournal.com]

The ridiculous love of my friends. Teaching (the actual teaching part, not the grading a bajillion papers part).

Those are pretty much the highest points, right now.

Ridiculous love of friends is always a good thing. *hug*

My thoughts exactly ^_^ *hugs*

*shrug* what feels dead to you feels much the same as it has always been to me. almost everyone i follow (including communities) are as active as they have been. it's true that some have fallen away but the ultimate purpose of my own journal remains unchanged and my usage of it remains as steady as it has ever been.

your cats miss you. i dont know which one is doing it but they keep leaving me delightful gifts of vomit in the kitchen to express their woe over having been abandoned. fortunately no one seems to have decided to vomit on your bed this time around (but i'll continue checking daily just to be on the safe side).

it got cold again after you left - like down to 31 degrees. we turned the heater on. but now it looks like it's going to be 70 today and we'll be turning it right back off again.

today is ice cream and sorbet day in the baking&pastry class. i am forbidden from bringing any of it home (so says the teacher) and it would be hard to bring home anyway. we get to make waffle cones, though. if we have extras of those, i'm totally bringing them home to share.

That's probably the poor woebegone Joker Cat. Poor baby. And thanks for checking. We appreciate it :)

Sorry you can't bring the delicious cold desserts home, but i look forward to waffle cones, if any are left...

I post a ton! Too bad it's mostly about babies. :D

[wolven.livejournal.com]

It is about babies, but that's okay. :) LIke I said, below, I'm just concerned with how many people have fled elsewhere.

Like, is it All Dreamwidth and Tumblr, now? I just don't know...

[n3m3sis42.livejournal.com]

Are there actually people ON Dreamwidth? I was under the impression it was all Twitter and Tumblr. And I barely even understand what Tumblr is.

[wolven.livejournal.com]

Tumblr is... weird. It's like a braindump of the highest order. Reposting posts you like, but with the ability to add more and extra to them. Short messages, pictures, videos, text... I think of it as kind of a 2-D version of all the Holographic VR Internets we were promised.

[n3m3sis42.livejournal.com]

Duuuuuude. DUDE! I am diagnosed with ADHD and I do not even understand why the entire Internet is Short Attention Span Theatre these days. Get off my lawn!

[wolven.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's pretty intense. I try not to think about it, and just keep writing and reading.

[raidingparty.livejournal.com]

Yes! Babies everywhere!

I guess my posts as of late are not loud enough, maybe Ill put them in bright pink font next time.

It seems to me that a lot of people left lj for other blogs or fb. I got rid of my face book. I do not miss it.

As for questions:

What are your plans should the zombies rise?

What are you thoughts on this season of the Walking Dead?

[wolven.livejournal.com]

Your posts are plenty loud, but I can go for three days, now, and only have to click back One Page to read what I've missed. As I have 176 people I read, on this thing, that shouldn't even be possible.

But, yes. Other blogs, other forms....

When the zombies rise, I plan to sit back and direct them as their Zombie Master.

This season of Walking Dead seems... disjointed. I don't really give as much of a shit about Rick, Laurie, and Shane's problems as the writers seem to want me to. I want to get back to where we're moving through Everyone's perspectives. Where the hell is T-Dog, you know? Give me more depth and character.

[halafax.livejournal.com]

My friends page comes and goes on that. Sometimes it one page, other times its two.

Zombie master hmm? well if that happens there will be a reckoning...

I agree its too focused on Rick, Lori, and Shane. Which annoys me. Though Dale has gotten on my last nerve as has Carl, and Andrea. Though I guess I do not have to worry about Dale anymore.
Personally if Lori and Carl were to be killed I would not shed a tear. I was sad when Sophia did not make it. Though the way the time line ran it made it hard to figure out how long they were looking. I still say that Hershel and Otis knew Sophia was in the barn.
The way they are taking Daryl is not all that great, who saw that coming? *raises hand*

[wolven.livejournal.com]

I want to see Carl stop fucking up and get better. And I want Daryl back to Zen Master Daryl.

Because I'm an egocentric asshole I read this post as "why you no write more?"

So...I want to write more. I should also pay you to teach me how to use tumblr. I really don't understand it all.

Other than that had anything good to eat lately?

[wolven.livejournal.com]

Hmmm.. Since you asked this, we had some food from the Amish Market, up north, when we went to visit my dad. Smoked turkey and ribs, as well as a ham and white bean soup. Pretty fantastic stuff.
