Monologue-ing

[avrelia]

I've noticed a tendency throughout my flist in these last months: we comment less. I comment less, you comment less, everybody comment less. I read (well, skim) my f-list almost every day, but too often I have nothing to add or just don't have time to write anything meaningful. I assume everybody else is plagued with the same lack of time. or a different lack of time. another reason is of course, that our interests diverge more and more - I cannot find time to watch much of the often-discussed movies and TV, many of you are hardly interested in small children (but they are very funny to look at!) we converge in the universal topics like weather (do YOU have as much snow as we?), health or politics (Russian, Canadian or USA - take your pick). So our entries look like monologues instead of heated or relaxed conversations of the bygone days. Or is it an illusion? I should go back in time and check, though it won't be telling - I never posted as much as I thought of posting. maybe it just seemed that way because we all discussed the shared interests more. Monologues or not, I love reading my friends and see what is going on in your life or just what do you read or watch nowadays. I love my friends (YOU), and I miss them when they disappear from LJ-world.

So, there: even if I do not comment, I am here, I read and I care.

but occasionally I feel like I am twelve and I really want to get comments. ;)

Comments

Yeah, it seems that way to me, too. Personally, I'm just more lazy and more busy. I used to wait until I got excited about something and then write about it on LJ. Now I don't even write about the weather. Heh.
It's not like I don't have things I'm excited about. Books, movies, politics, animals. I just got lazy. Plus oftentimes I watch certain shows with huge time delays, so I don't go back to comment on other people's posts.

And now I'm trying to spend less time online because my wrists are complaining bitterly.

I always enjoy reading about D. :)

I am trying to spend less time on-line, too - just to be able to spend that time on writing or baby or sleep ;) but in fact, I am often only redirecting my time into some other - new and shiny venues. Nothing of course can take the place of LJ in my heart, but they do take its time ;)

I should write more about D, then
