The first dream
Apr. 21st, 2009 01:17 amI've been with Livejournal for ages. Well, perhaps not as long as some people, but a few years back I heard whispers about something exciting and promising. Further investigation of these whispers revealed that there was someone hiding behind my chair.
Having exorcised the person behind my chair, I discovered something about something called "Dreamwidth". So I checked it out. Several months later.....here I am. Posting my first entry on it. Do I feel a traitor to LJ? Not really. Why didn't I just use Blogger or some other frontend? Well.....I didn't like their ethics. Besides which audience is lacking in Blogger. So I'm breaking new grounds. For myself at least.
Those who don't know me should know I am currently a second year journalism student at the University of Huddersfield, which is curiously in Barnsley. Well, it isn't. The university is in Huddersfield, I actually go to the satellite campus which is in Barnsley. But I like to be confusing. Keeps you on your toes.
At this stage in my life I am currently undergoing the breakdown of my marriage. No tears or sympathies please, it is entirely amicable. We just learnt 5 years too late, that we were incompatible and both had different long term goals. We still live together, for now. But soon....exciting things are planned. You can read all about them here.
Of course by promising you exciting things I am actually giving myself the kiss of death. I'll probably end up on the dole or dead or something. Either way, I will die with a dreamwidth.
My life.....complete. (For now)
