1. i have, if you haven't noticed, decided to go friends-only with the majority of my posts. seeing as this is the only public post available, it should be fairly obvious that i'm terribly lazy and have decided to change them en-masse rather than sift through to keep the ones saying "happy birthday so-and-so!" public.
2. that said, if you want to read, comment on this post and i will friend you (assuming i know you). if you don't have an LJ account, i suggest you get one. it is free, after all.
3. despite being too lazy to change the privacy settings on individual journals, i did go back into the archives and do so reading (if you've never done so, i recommend it - it's very amusing and inspires nice fuzzy nostalgic feelings, for the most part). i can't believe i've had this journal for five years. also? i'm sad that my paid account is expiring (again).
that is all. i hope everyone is enjoying their weekend :)
