It's not polite to eavesdrop without introducing yourself, you know.

Humour me, will you?

I've been curious lately, about who reads my journal. I've one of those silly tracker things attached to it, but it really doesn't give me all that much information. Sure, I can find out ISPs from it. But, that's not always good enough. I want to know /who./ Not where.

So.

Lurkers! I respectfully request that you chime in here in response to my plea. I'll even take off my ban on anonymous posting (for the time being, at any rate) just in case you don't have a LJ account. And if you do have a LJ account, it sure would be nice if you didn't wuss out and post anonymously.

Some helpful sample questions, if you will:

* Who are you? And do I know you?
* Why do read my journal?
* How long have you been reading it?
* Since you're obviously not reading me from a friends list, you get to see my layout. Do you think I should change it at all? I've been itching for a change.
* Have you started reading anyone on my friends list after seeing them commenting in my journal? Why?


Hmm. I think that might be sufficent for now.

I'll leave my anonymous settings set to off for one week. So on 30 January 2003, my settings will revert back to normal (anonymous posting banned). Don't be a jerk and abuse this, please. I'm not opening a call for asshats to run amuck in my territory. No drama. Or I'll get out my beating stick!

Mmmmm, asshats.

call for asshats *laughs* you're silly :P

Hey what have you been doing with your diner closed this week? Or with work are you just not going and didn't even know about it? They had a kitchen fire over the weekend or something in case you didn't know.

[meetzemonsta.livejournal.com]

I didn't even know they'd been closed!

There hasn't been much inclination lately for me to be hitting the diner. Too cold and I've all this knitting to be done. However, I usually wind up at Marlton Diner on Thursday nights, to see my priest friend.

Is Starview going to open back up?

Re:

[neenerface.livejournal.com]

It is hella cold to be running around out there. I'm a moron for even doing it.

They opened back up yesterday I think. If all went well with repairing the damage. It wasn't a big fire from what I heard. Magnolia got all the regulars from there while they were closed. Well, at least until they close at 1am the lamers.

[chicanerys-muse.livejournal.com]

You know my brother was the one to put out the fire...He has the chemical burns to prove it.

and they weren;t even going to comp his bill.


Cheap ass bastards.

Re:

[neenerface.livejournal.com]

Damn. I didn't know that. Does he work there or was he just eating there?

Yah i'm not a big fan of that place. I have never been there and had friendly good service.

Re:

[chicanerys-muse.livejournal.com]

He was just eating there at the time.

He works at Virtua in Voorhees.

Re:

[neenerface.livejournal.com]

Oh hell no. That's just wrong, that they didn't even want to help him.

i found your journal a couple weeks ago, and i read it, cause i really want a live journal, but i don't have one, and i have a friend, and she lives in another state not so far a way, and i never see her, even though she comes to the big city, but she doesn't visit me.
and putty likes to watch.

arrrrr....

!!!

You were the last person I'd have thought to have found my journal!

If you'd really like one, I can give you a code. I got's billions of them, yanno.

And it's so weird, I have this friend too. And she lives in another state not so far away also. And she never comes to visit me, either!

Nympho says hi. And we HAVE to get together.

I miss you!

Re: putty likes to watch.

give me code, then come over and give me lovin' !
i miss you too...

[roguesquadron.livejournal.com]

Who are you? And do I know you?

Jo-Anne. And no.

Why do read my journal?

It's interesting, and I always appreciate good writing.

How long have you been reading it?

Since June of last year, I think.

Since you're obviously not reading me from a friends list, you get to see my layout. Do you think I should change it at all?

Sure, why not? I do like the fancy caps, though.

Have you started reading anyone on my friends list after seeing them commenting in my journal?

Yes.

Why?

Generally, for the same reasons I read your journal.

[meetzemonsta.livejournal.com]

Since June of last year, I think.

Wow! You've been reading me for quite some time then. That amazes me. How did you find me?

Sure, why not? I do like the fancy caps, though.

I am completely enamoured with the fancy caps. That's one of the reasons why I haven't changed my layout in ages. Carrie made those for me. :D

[roguesquadron.livejournal.com]

How did you find me?

If memory serves, I read a comment of yours in someone's journal, and when I checked your journal out, I realized you were magdalene of alt.gothic (I've been lurking there for years).

Do you mind if I add you to my friends list?

[hexennacht.livejournal.com]

Sure, why not? I do like the fancy caps, though.

why, thank you. ;>

Peeper response

[crankydaddy.livejournal.com]

Well heck, your post brought up something I never thought of. I'm a bloody peeper. *Light dawns from above* I'm gobsmacked!

It started because I read FLEM, then was curious about Grant, then I started investigating Livejournal. Then ione of your co-worker rants caught some sympathy and now I seemed to have snowballed into a peeper. The light of day shall never touch my pate again. BUT!

After looking around and seeing a good friends get a journal and realizing I am a lousy emailer I thought, what the heck?! Now I shall be peeped in return and I may soon be able to see my mother sun once again, shame washed away.

As far as your style, do you even see an icon in this post? This little rube is wide eyed to the light and scripts around him. Heck you could sell me a bridge about now. *spins slowly* I like what you've accomplished.

Feel free to peep, the Jesus Crispies will probably feature in my rants as well. Being in the little ole Midwest and all.
