Friends Cut Done

[kat_lair]

I've just done a larger than expected friends cut.

If I defriended you, it was because I haven't heard you from ages and thus assume you're no longer around/it hasn't felt like we ever really connected/we no longer have interests in common. Please don't take it personally as you are all awesome people and I wish you all the best.

If you think I've made a grievous mistake (entirely possible!) and would like to stay on my flist for whatever reason, then please let me know and I'll be happy to add you back.

Love,
Kat

SO happy I could stay. Seriously, I just love your rantings about your students - because I'm becoming a teacher, too - and enjoy your way of writing waaay too much, though I'M usually so quiet :-(

Aww, well hun we haven't been on each other's flists for very long, I wasn't about to delete new friends before seeing how things turn out :D

Hee, I'm glad my teaching rants and writing are entertaining. I don't mind people being quiet (not like comment on every post by a flister), but I do like to feel like I know people who are seeing my f-locked posts and at least vaguely want to be here. :)

I always have that moment where I assume that everyone is going to cut me because I am awful. So glad I could stay. ♥

Well hun, I enjoy your posts even though I suck at commenting also :)

Somehow I survived which is very surprising because I've been terribly absent from everyone for some time but I'm going to try to remedy that, so yay!

Well, I am rather fond of seeing you on my flist when you do pop up. And there are so few who share the my first fandom so... :) I look forward to seeing more of you. Feels like a lot of people are taking a hiatus or leaving LJ altogether.

And here I am commenting to say that icon is absolutely beautiful. MEANINGLESS COMMENT IS MEANINGLESS.

(It is beautiful, though)

Hee, it is a gorgeous icon, isn't it? And seasonally appropriate. It's by roxicons who is one of my favourite icon-makers and produces gorgeous gen graphics (see e.g. my header - text obviously added by me and s/he is good at letting people fiddle with her graphics as well).

I'm pondering a friends cut (for similar reasons as you), but for some reason it feels so dramatic! But you've set such a good precedent for handling it nicely, I'm thinking I should just knuckle down and do it. :)

I think this is all part of my current EVERYTHING MUST CHANGE period, result of end of thesis looming. It's funny cos I'm generally not great with change, I don't like it, it makes me anxious. And now... I want new hair and wardrobe, I want to try lots of new things (and have done and am planning to do) etc. Clearly I'm like... easing myself into the huge inevitable change coming soon with finishing my PhD.

Well pretty much likewise, hun :D
