I keep forgetting about this place.
It's partly because I think I only have the capacity for a small number of social media "outlets." The other reason is that it's just not habit. (Plus, I have a reticence to put information "out there" in a way that feels like I no longer control what is known and not known about me.)
It's a quandary when you know you could benefit from feedback (or just a soundboard), but there are no comfortable avenues for expression.
Also (pardon the non-sequitor), I still have no idea how this all really "works." So, I feel like I'm destined to make all sorts of horrible "errors." If only there were a user's manual. Does such a thing exist? I feel like I still don't even know what questions to ask because I don't really understand the platform.
*sigh*
Anyway, I'm wishing everyone, myself included, a better 2013. The last few years have been really difficult.

I noticed you posted about the friending meme--but all I saw was the DW friending meme (confession--I don't watch DW--mostly because I don't have cable/haven't had time to add to much else in my life) but didn't see anything general. It's entirely possible I didn't look far enough.
As for the limiting posts to others, I did see something like that (where you can chose whether to allow a post to be public). I think you are the only person who "follows" me, so it always seems silly to post something just for you. ;-) I can always send you an email for that!
I was proud of myself today when I figured out how to change my settings so I'll get an email when you post something new! (God, I feel *SO* old!!)
P.S. Isn't your birthday coming up?? Enjoy your youth!
