I noticed that I haven't been commenting much recently. Which is not to say I wasn't reading, or that I wasn't enjoying reading my flist. It just - how many times can I write "wow", or "dies laughing", or "hugs" without feeling stupid? And recently I had no idea what to write in comments. So I didn't write anything. I have cool, smart, and witty people on my flist, and they write cool, smart, and witty things in their entries. And I think: "Cool!" and then "Hee!", and then again "Cool!" But, honestly, to write "Cool!" twenty times a day? No way.

All said above doesn't prevent me from sulking when I am not getting comments in my LJ. I can try to stay calm about it, and explain myself that people had better things to do, and they may have the same problems I do, or may be, different problems, and who said I write anything worth attention, and I am not here to get attention, anyway...

Who am I kidding? I love attention. I love to be flattered, pampered, and told that I rule the Universe. That is not the point.

And by now I totally forgot if I had any point at all. Feel free to skip this post. I love you all anyway.

I'm in the same place as you at the moment. It seemed as if I was on a posting and commenting spree last week and this weekend I just couldn't find the energy to do either. Usually if I'm not up to posting what I type out is crap, so it's best just to wait until inspiration strikes.

I know the frustration of having no one respond to posts though. Really, we are reading (and I assume people are reading me!). Undortunately, if I have a time crunch I have to choose between reading my entire friends list (I hate skipping over posts if people took the time to do them) or just read a few selected ones and reply (I take forever to compose my thoughts). I usually choose the former cause I don't want to miss out on what's going on in peoples lives.

I don't know if I had a point, just figured I'd empathise. ;-)

Thank for emphathizing! :-)

On the one hand (more sensible. I guess) I understand that people may have stronger reasons for not commenting than I do, on the other... well... hence the post.
Thank you again.
