the good old days

I went through a lot of my journal entries from 2001. A few things struck me.

I posted multiple times per day. Now it's only a couple of times a week.
I was much funnier and a better writer.
I struggled a lot, emotionally that year.
I was apparently a romantic guy. I wasn't aware of this.

lol!!!! I've done similarly in the past-- gone over my journal and thought, Huh.

I don't think any of us post daily now, let alone multiple times. I know I post on FB now, even when it's just a throwaway post, or something musical. But LJ takes more effort since I began thinking of it as ONLY my journal. FB is where people go multiple times per day, now, so I see them there usually.

I think you're a good writer-- but possibly, with more practice, we do get better and we don't practice like we used to. And it's likely that you ARE a romantic, so you're romantic. But the way you write it up there is funny! ;)

When I think of something funny to say, I say it in Facebook, if at all. Or music-related stuff.

LJ does take more work, since that's where I go to post on in-depth topics. And I don't have all that much time to post, so I don't post much, even when there's something I want to say.

My writing has probably gotten better in the technical sense, I feel like I struggle more to find things to say about the subject.

Thanks!
