Day 13 of the 35 Day Countdown

 A third of the way through.

 The school thing I was supposed to hear about...so about that.  They still haven't sent out notifications.  I HATE "on or about" dates.  What would happen if I wanted to show up "on or about" work call?  Waiting is painful.  There's a lot riding on it.

 Going to repack one of my bags in prep for moving.  They made us bring a ton of stuff we've NEVER used.  Good to be prepared, but I'll be glad when we can throw these bags on a plane.

 Either way - WE ARE UNDER 100 DAYS.  This party is getting to the end.  Need to get all the financial goals met!  The new VixenMobile has been ordered and a partial down payment paid.

 Rolled back through some tags today, and I miss some of the people who used to be on here with us.  FB is not the same.

No, FB is not the same. It has some strengths over LJ. But LJ is better for threaded "conversations" and for longer posts.

FB is for announcing stuff, or more playful. One of the things I was looking at was a divorce tag, and remembering how much everyone was there for me on LJ when I desperately needed people tp help.

I miss that closeness.

Yes, I know what you mean. FB is more superficial.

It saddens me that my "friends" page these days is mostly feeds I'm subscribing to from other sites. I see more posts on FB, but not as interesting as what I used to see on LJ. Not that I'm in much position to complain since I'm hardly posting at all on either site.

Yes. FB just isn't a place to write as much as it is to check in with people...and post memes and lolcats.
