ysobelleAll 86 of you.
Why are you reading my journal? Is it cos you know me? Is it cos I'm an interesting freak? Is it to reassure yourself that there's someone worse off in the world than you?
I've been looking at my "Friend Of" list for weeks now and wondering what it is that seems so appealing in some form or another to 86 people. Some of you I know-- some better than others-- and some I've never met. Some I understand. Some...I'm not sure why. So tell me. Why are you here? Why are you reading?
I really do want to know. And be honest. Screen if you need to. But I'd love 86 responses.

Brat. Very silly person.
To know you is to love you, and folk always want to hang around greatness. We WORSHIP you, dahlink.

Date: 2004-06-05 05:48 am (UTC)Your journal gives me a place to keep in touch a bit, even if you do have a habit of being somewhat cryptic from time to time.
I'm guessing if I'd stayed in PA longer, I'd be more "in" on things, though.
*pout*
besides. I like you....just as you are.

Your journal enteries are generally well written, organized, and interesting to read. :) Not lots of midless quizzes and "fluff", which I apprecaite. :)

Date: 2004-06-08 07:57 am (UTC).you're a rhinelander, first and foremost. I don't know how I made the connection that you are the Ysobelle in the Orchard, but I did.
I like reading the way that you say things. You express yourself well (and can spell, and that always makes a reading experience better).
You're the only *other* goth girl on the list. But you've been around a lot longer.
I friended you as an experiment, to see what you had to say. I stuck around because I liked hearing it.
K? Too weird? Either way, I'll live. I just thought that you should know.

...and it took my breath away. You have a gift with words, an ability to express both positive and negative with a succinct, striking beauty that makes me stop and think, "Wow."
Thank you for being you, hon.
