So, i've been fairly quiet on LJ of late. This is a necessity, as i decided at the start of the year to be fairly strict on not letting myself do private things in work time, especially time-sucky things like LJ. A half hour lunch break and two ten minute tea breaks doesn't leave much time for reading, let alone posting, but that's just how it has to be as i simply can't afford to let my not keeping on top of the workload be down to my own farting around.

Even as it is, i have been cheating in allowing myself to read LJ in the mornings up to morning tea time, but i really can't let myself do even that as it means anything up to the first hour of the day spent half goofing off, which adds up to a half hour a day i can't afford to waste. And i'm way too old to be sneaking about minimising screens and hiding what i'm doing like some naughty schoolkid. (Edit - this is also part of a more general self-development programme involving not having anything to hide, be embarrassed about or feel guilty for, though that's another post in itself which i may not find time to write).

So, i'm going to be even scarcer on LJ now, many friends-list posts are going to go unread and replies will often be a long time coming, but that's just how it has to be.

Speaking of which..

Yes only LJ before 8am and after 6pm...for me.
Much easier and sane.

Hey, I'm catching up on 1000+ Flist posts at the moment (hence only responding to this now - heh). Have nothing constructive to say except LOVIN' the new icon, boyo! :D

Thanks, everyone's been saying that. Elaine's got a good eye for composition.
