I've noticed lately that posting in my journal has one of those magical-life-healy type effects for it seems that when I've posted about something that's bothering me I find the situation, or at least my attitude, to be much improved after the fact. Sometimes I want to avoid posting anything negative but a well balanced life isn't all fandom and

When you decide to go all fandom and sunshine, tell me cause I wanna know where to sign up.

Thank you for this post - you reminded me too that I need to be honest to myself.

I love you C - and thank you for bringing me here. It helps me on days like today when I need to make hard decisions.

I'm glad you're here, too! I missed you and I love having this outlet to interact. I wish I could say I'd keep up with phone calls and individual emails but that doesn't seem to work out in practice so well. So yay, lj! *lovehug*

I am the same way now - between work, being a mom, a wife, a homeowner, I am lucky to have any time at all to myself.

I mean really, if it wasn't for being home sick today I would still be trying to figure out how I was going to fit in Christmas shopping (yay internet!!!)

Yay for "keepin' it real and not frontin'!"

I always keep it real (be honest with myself and others), I've had to in order to keep my small thread of sanity. Also, Elan and others have told me they can't read my mind, so I have to just bitch at them about what is bothering me and learn how to get over it.

Posting in my journal is often just that!

Yes yes yes! I couldn't agree with this post more! I'm glad you're able to be happy more often even when things are blah.

I'm finding a strength and stability that I haven't had before and it feels great. Everything is not how I want it to be, but it never will be. Instead I'm finding peace and comfort in myself and Corey.

Hear hear! It's hard for me to find a balance in my journal sometimes. It slants toward the negative because that's my vent space; I'd rather it there than always being like that when hanging out with people in person. Er... wait a minute... <'.$lt' Seriously though, it's conflicted since the journal serves as a communication point with friends and not just my vent space. And it really does help to get it out here. Like you, I'll often feel better after a good lj rant. :)

BTW, tomorrow at 5:30ish your place? I've no idea on a place or even cuisine yet, but I am thinking cheap. :)

[myras_girls]

Getting it out of my head, onto paper or some kind of page, is infinitely helpful to me. It always has been, but recently it seems the relief is much more immediate.

5:30 at my place sounds great! And yes, cheap is good for me, too. I've been spending money like I have it lately. I have a couple of coupons. Inca, Island Grill, Tokoyo Bowl & Yungs. Any of those sound good to you?

[acidchylde]

Inca sounds good. Or breakfast. Eastern isn't really blowin' my skirt up and I've never been all that impressed with the IG. ;D See you in a bit.

Just friended you

[tri_blog]

Aww, Chrysta, you sound like a sweetie. :p

I like girly girls.

Thanks! Get ready for regular introspective musings. :) But hopeful. Nothing can take my hope from me.
