now, i normally don't make posts like these, but i have a monstrous headache and feel terribly sad. i miss everyone on here who used to post, post, post and inspire me and generally fill me with a fuzzy warmth. why does everything have to be templates, one line input, radio buttons and faceless collections of people with shamelessly self-indulgent

Comments

I hanker for the good old days also. I loved it when everyone made such an effort with websites and made exciting new layouts all the time.. I mean, there are some still out there but not many. I feel bad for making a blog... even though it's not done yet. and I still continue to post here. and I don't do that much because I don't feel anyone is listening anymore.

YES! I agree that 2001-2003 were the glory days of livejournal, and I think our little inspiring community in general. It was so amazing because that was the time when I really needed that support and that outlet the most. There were times when I used to post twice in one day! I used to get 20 comments on a post with no pictures - just thoughts, feelings, words! I used to look forward to people's new website layouts and how they just pushed me to create more and create better. I don't know what happened. Some of the people whose journals I loved the most just dropped off the face of the earth without warning...

And I really miss them (and it) in my life.

it's very weird: i was on gala darlings myspace earlier looking at new photos of her & saw a comment you'd left her. i clicked onto it thinking OH MY GOSH IT'S NANA! i miss the old way livejournal used to be & for me, you were one of the old people. i don't expect you to remember me (i used to be disinfected) but i feel the same as you do, saddened by it. i miss it, too. i keep meaning to start writing again (i haven't in a couple of years, even though i read it every day until three or so months ago.) but could it ever be the same again? x

well you know I only post to do gig reviews as i've still not found a better place to do them and other general banter of course but then I do genuinely like the people on my friends list(Yes even Rob W!).It'd be sad to see any of them disappear.Some have over the time I've been doing mine. Also it has been rewarding when the bands themselves have commented on here or via myspace about their reviews or photos on here. Still I've not heard anything from Kate Walsh yet!

I'm off to glasgow tomorrow to see the gedge! I'm nervous!!
