so my only new years resolution is fandom related: stop being so damn shy about friending people i like. i friend mainly by reading their fic, but i'm easily awed into thinking this person is amazing, way too cool for me. while i know writing is only a bit of the importance of flist, the thing is if you're posting a pot smoking incest, or a kinky weasley related pwp, i know we're on the same page.

so half the time i read something and i want to friend because i want to know more about them, but i'm totally shy. sometimes i get all creepy and stalk their journal without commenting (for an example, i've had martha's_library friended for like 6 months, and every now and then i go and look at her personal journal, but i'm too in awe of her writing to suggest i'm good enough to friend her).

so, tonight i'm going to friend at least twenty people, and hope to gain new friends in the new year. *puts on resolve!face*

i was so hoping you were still planning on it. i was just talking to nuclearsugars the other day about getting a hotel/who's credit card we're using, and i was like 'plz god, let my british girl still want to' but i didn't want to ask because i didn't want to be all PRESSURE PRESSURE PRESSURE.

your dad can step off, because you need to be free to be you! *hearts you*

i'm still in I AM TAKING THOSE TWO DAYS OFF, AND QUITTING IF YOU'RE NOT COOL WITH THAT mode, except i haven't done the confrontation part yet. probably closer to july would be a better idea. it's only two days, so really, it's probably better to give me the two days off and have me come back than start looking for new staff. there's usually staffing problems. *is not ready for that conversation yet* *puts off by ignoring it*

seriously though, if we both make it to the con okay, you have to remind me that i can talk to anyone, even if they're kaalee or schocolate or mad_martha, because WE'RE ALL PEOPLE and damnit i am talking to everyone at a con, even if i am too scared to friend them on lj. you have to be all eighth grade I DOUBLE DOG DARE YOU TO TALK TO THAT PERSON *points* and i will because i believe in peer pressure.
