Flist... thing

This is the post where most people would be writing that they're doing a flist cut, and it's not you, it's me, etc.

Which I sort of am doing, but I'm not actually cutting anyone. I *am* dropping a lot of comms and some folks off the reading filter over the next few days. It's not you, honestly, it's me and the fact that I spend WAY TOO MUCH TIME online, and between Sherlock being in the first flush of enthusiastic fannish output and Sarah Jane Adventures about to premiere - well, something's gotta give, and I've gotten old enough that it's not going to be my sleep anymore.

I apologize in advance to the folks who get shuffled off, but if it's any consolation, I'm not actually cutting you...

i cant keep up , i know.
certainly i dont think anyone can blame you for trying to prune your reading lists down a bit.

hope all works out well, do keep in touch and all!

Since I've hardly been Posty McPosterson of late, no hard feelings on my part. I am still reading a lot, though, so I"m glad you're not actually cutting. :)

Considering that I'm trying to reclaim time, it's actually of the good to not be Post McPosterson. :) Objectively speaking, I need to winnow down the average daily feed by about 20-30 posts, so it's high volume comms that are getting the whack first.

Makes sense. :) By the way, you've inspired me to set my Tivo for Sherlock--I'm looking forward to seeing what all the fuss is about!

OMGit'ssoCOOL! You're gonna love it.

Mind you, I may not be the most impartial of commenters... :D

The same friend who 'bootlegged' TORCHWOOD and the first two seasons of SarahJane Adv. for me last year has agreed to do the same with SHERLOCK (in exchange for all the homemade lasagna he can eat next Sat. night), because just from what I've seen in clips and AMVs on YouTube, I think I'ma gonna like this version of Holmes&Watson even more than RDJ & JL (is possible?).

P.S. My time off work for ChicagoTARDIS Con has been approved -- I just have to figure out what to do about Thursday....

I liked RDJ & JL and I LOVE LOVE LOVE Sherlock.

When do you get in on Thursday? I arrive in the early evening.

Actually, probably not until Friday like last year.... I'm trying to figure out the Extended Family Thanksgiving plans; sounds like Mom and Dad might be headed towards Texas (Youngest Sister's bunch)leaving us three elder sibs at loose ends. Nothing's finalized yet.

I'm not fond of driving after dark, especially into ChicagoSuburbiaLand.

Can't blame you there at all.

This year I'm using a credit card for the hotel, so I'm not going to be wrapped quite so tight about getting you to pay up front.

I know how you feel, I'm only getting on LJ about once a week now so just the idea of skip=450 makes me go euuuuuuuughhhhh in a zombie voice.

[identity profile] neadods.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Just two days off is skip=160. I'm hoping to drop at least 20 regular posts off the day because I really, really need to get that number down.
