sigh

I have had a lovely time at dancetomato's house this weekend. I will say more on this after I get home tomorrow and manage to sleep a little.

In the meantime, I have done some defriending. This was not a happy thing, and I actually *like* all the people I defriended! So why do it, you say? Well, someone I defriended asked me that, and this is what I said. "Hi--I've always enjoyed your fic and will continue to visit your journal, but we've never really interacted much and I have recently become kind of desperate to trim my friends list because I honestly can't keep up with it. So I defriended a slew of people and I think there might be a few more before it's over--all of whom I like but I just am unable to read everything. Hate to do it, being unfriended myself makes me feel pretty sucky, but I kind of have to. =( " Seriously, I have this policy of reading everyone on my friends list, I don't use filters and I like to comment as much as possible. But lately, I have been skimming more than reading, and feeling so overwhelmed but the amount of content on my list that I haven't commented, and this just isn't the way I want to handle my LJ. So I apologize to those who I had to defriend, but please know that I will still visit your journals and comment when I can.
