Three years of LJ today. Woohoo!
I am posting now to note that three years ago today I created this LiveJournal, on this day March the 11th. One thing that is particularly good about that is that today is a very important day for Due South fans; "Call of the Wild" (the final episode) has a lovely monologue about it. Yes, I am a big geek, but you knew that.
So, yes. They have called this day the eleventh of March . And whosoever of you gets through this day, unless you are shot in the head or somehow slain, [...] you will get excited at the name March the eleventh. [...] Those who are not here, be they sleeping or doing something else, they will feel themselves -- sort of crappy. Because they are not here to join the fight, on this day March the eleventh! Ahem.
Anyway. It has been an excellent three years of LJ. I originally came in with the
bindlejournal crowd, many of whom seem to have disappeared from LJ. Some of you are still here, though. *waves at 
antigone921, simplelyric, and versaphile* I also bugged a bunch of my RL friends to get journals; slyviolet got one pretty quickly, but it took eruthros a while, after which m_shell followed, I think. Then came the rest of the SC crowd, represented on my friends list by ryca and fiatlouis. Somewhere along the way I refound kirianth and bennybot, who I met on the now-defunct Living Fiction MUSH approximately 8 years ago. Whoa. Now I have bunches of ROM folk on my friends list, too.
Without LJ I would not have metlysimache, and I am quite glad I happened across her journal. When I friended her about two and a half years ago now, I had no idea that anything like this would happen, but I am very pleased it did, even if it did take me a year of IMing her every day for hours and hours (because, y'know, she's so so so cool and fun to talk to) to figure out that I liked her like that. What can I say, I'm slow sometimes. But, yay for LJ for bringing us together. I love her so. (Did I mention I get to see her again in nine days? Eee.)
Most of you, of course, I never knew first in RL, nor were you Bindlepeople or MUSHers. And you've been plenty fun. I started to name names, but I'd feel bad if I left people out, so I won't. You know who you are. Yes, you. The people whose posts I comment on. The people whose posts I don't comment on, but I still read every word of. (Really, I do read my whole list.) The people I've been IMing for a while. You're all wonderful.
