Grab a chair and a couple of root beers...

I had determinedly spent most of today away from my LJ, mostly to catch up on householdy type things, and to do some shopping that needed to be done. The Impossible Son has outgrown his jeans: they're both too short, and too tight in the waist.

So, after some looking at the budget, we went to San Marcos and got him some jeans, and I finally, finally found some wool socks, so my feet are toasty warm!! And when we got home, I logged into LJ and found some lovely, wonderful person gifted me with a year's paid time!

*squees with joy*

So, since this person obviously wishes to remain anonymous, I shall have to write a fic to post as a thank-you!!

And in case I didn't say it before...

THANK YOU!!!!

*is very happy*

Well, isn't THIS just a lovely piece of news?

*snort*

Not to sound paranoid, but why does something like this always happen when my paid account time is about to run out? It'll run out on the 18th, and I'm sitting here debating whether or not to pay for more time or let it go to a basic account. Let me see, when I finally decided to upgrade to a paid account... the strikethrough happened. Then, when that time ran out and I decided to pay for more time, because I figured that things had settled down, several artists and writers had their accounts suspended without warning.

The last time my account was about to run out, some kind, anonymous person stepped in and gave me six more months, and most fortunately nothing happened at that time.

This time, well... I'm afraid if I decide to go ahead and pay for more time (because Auntie loves her icons, she does!), Livejournal might go 'splodey.

Auntie does not want to be ridden out of the remains of LJ-Town on a rail with tar and feathers, no she doesn't!

Well, we can't say that life on LJ isn't always interesting. I mean, really, they have never failed to capture our collective attention and make sure we stay focused on them, have they? They give us six months or a year to settle down and just when we start feeling all safe and cozy again... BAM!!!

*huggles IJ and cuddles it close*
