Defriending
Hi, my name is Gayle and/or Cynthia and I'm an LJ-friend-adding-oholic.
I add far more friends than I can possibly handle keeping. It takes over my life. It's out of control. And no matter how many times I try to cut down the numbers, somehow they just refuse to stay where I put them. Not long ago at all I was shocked to realize I was about to actually cross the 100-friends mark. I swear, it wasn't long ago at all. Yet today, I found myself already closer to the 200 friends mark than to the 100. What kind of insanity is this? What sort of nutcase has time to read the posts of nearly 200 people?
If my LJ friends were a fizzy soft drink in a tall glass mug, the mug would be overflowing. About a dozen of you frothed over the edge today and spilled onto the table. I fear I've made a bit of a mess. I'm clumsy like that.
