good morning...

It's about 35°, raining, and windy. That's the worst. We got about 40° three days last week. That's not supposed to happen again for a week and a half.

I was awake-ish early this morning, so I probably only got about six hours of sleep. Then I was suddenly wide awake with a cramp in my leg. It still hurts to walk on it.

Wednesday evening I hung out with Doug. That was nice. It was the first night in a couple of weeks that I felt completely fine and over my illness. Then Thursday night I was dead tired. Even went to bed a little early. Got about seven hours of sleep that night. Friday evening I was feeling normal again.

Easter dinner tomorrow with my mom and my sister's family. We're hosting, for a change. They're still making most of the food, though.

Dreamwidth

I'm on Dreamwidth now. I've been unhappy with the Russian connection on LiveJournal. LJ was once a place for the Russian resistance. But then they moved all the servers to Russia, so Russian LJer's would be subject to Russian law, which forbids dissidence. Aside from general political disagreements being effectively outlawed, the LGBT community suffered, since that's all against the law too.

So I would like not to support LJ with my content. But my friends are still there, so I can't really leave. At this point my plan is to cross-post from DW to LJ. Comment on whichever platform you're on. I wish everything was in the same place, to have more conversation and interaction between people, but to be honest, that doesn't happen much anymore anyway.

As far as supporting LJ with content, I'm a permanent user there, so they no longer get any payments from me. And I don't see ads, so I don't support them in that way.

I backed up my entire LJ journal here on DW, so if I pull the plug on LJ, I don't really lose much. Or if something happens to LJ, and my journal there vanishes, I've still got everything here. I will still be going to LJ to read my friends page there, so don't worry about me missing you. I will continue to read everything you post.

But if you want to join me on Dreamwidth, come on over. It's actually pretty easy to do.

Edit: It did not bring photos over. They're still all hosted by LJ. So that would kinda suck if they disappeared. But DW does have photo hosting.

phone app

Does anyone on Dreamwidth know of a good mobile app?
