am kind of out of spoons. also emotionally wibbly.

if you are reading my journal out of choice (rather than just because you subscribed for some reason and haven't bothered to take me off), and if you feel like it, tell me why? or say something nice about me, or something? anonly is fine.

I tend to be amazingly quiet these days so you haven't heard much from my corner. That said, I read everything you post. I like the ways that you describe your crafting, the WoW posts make no sense to me, but are intriguing, and you seem to be an incredibly awesome, strong woman.

I'm always so happy when I see you pop into chat! Even if I have this weird thing where I have to say your name out loud in the style of Ladyhawk (did you ever see that? Michelle Pfeiffer's character was named Isabeau). So I always have to do it in that deep, Ees-a-beau thing.

:D

Also I think you're awesome. Even quite aside from your name.

heehee, I'm glad I"m not the only one who says it outloud like that! :)

Because I like your WoW entries and other gaming dorkery because your struggles with Doing Stuff resonate with me and I guess weirdly seeing someone writing about them makes me feel better for us all; because I love music and love seeing people make music.

Because I think you're awesome and I want to hear what you have to say.

I enjoy reading your posts (even when I have no idea what you're talking about, like with knitting). And you make my reading lists on LJ and DW a much better, interesting place to read.

Er, you know what I mean.

Crafts!

I heart seeing you in chat. Also, as someone who is hopeless with crafts, I vicariously follow your knitting progress.

From:

sneezer222

I really like reading what you are up to. Your crafting is always interesting, and I am hardly waiting till you put some stitch markers up {maybe on Etsy, but I won't bug you too much!} Your singing always seems so amazing, and your posts about it really make me miss choir.

From:

branchandroot

Because you're amazingly brave about life (even when you seem to think you're not), and it's really good to read that.

From:

I think you're interesting. You write things that make my brain go *nomnom*. I like your attitude, and understand the ups and downs.

From:

asciident

I think you're interesting. I don't think you're going to understand it, but even your sigma/depression posts are interesting to me. We have a lot in common, and a lot not in common (which is another point of interestingness!).

We've known each other a long time, and we may not be the closest, bestest buds ever, but you're my friend and I love you.

From:

jackalibis

I'll be honest with you: I don't even remember! ^^;;;

But I <3 you anyway! *hugs*

From:

staranise

You write so well about the things you deal with. There's a kind of fundamental honesty to your posts that's refreshing, and I love reading that. Your brain may be twisted up like a pretzel but at least you know what it's saying, you know?

I think it's something I never mentally articulated before. You're a bit like me - you're committed to being in less pain, to feeling less crappy. That is a very worthy struggle, and I love knowing you're working on it. You don't give up.

I loooove your knitting posts, even though I don't usually have the energy to comment to tell you I love them (sorry about that!). Your posts make me want to get off my butt and pick up one of the eighty million uncompleted knitting projects I have sitting around.

Also, you have a thread in the anonymous love meme!

*makes marshmallow noises*

And even if you weren't, you have good wordsmithery: the talent to make whatever you're talking about interesting.

From:

fadedwings

I think you are an interesting and amazing person. I've trimmed my flist so many times throughout the years but I couldn't even imagine not having you here. <3

From:

I read you because I like you just the way you are, wibbly or not. *Hug*

From:

yvi

I just like you, I think :)

I am just so, so bad about commenting :/

From:

mathsnerd

Because I love you, silly woman. Because I think you're worth everything you don't consider yourself worthy of and then some.

Plus what Drewface said. ;)

From:

kristianna_lee

Uh, because you're just totally awesome in general? :)

I find your posts fascinating, even when they're complicated with technical things, like knitting! I know how to knit one-colour scarves, this is all, and yet reading your posts is such an eye-opener. :) I also love the way you're so open and free with your thoughts. Even when they're not always super-fantastic-happy, they're eloquent and intriguing. :)

From:

darthneko

I *like* listening to you. Yes, even when you're wibbly. [HUGS] I know I don't comment often, but I find what you have to say interesting and I like you.

From: (Anonymous)

Because you're amazingly awesome?

You're so strong and brave, even though life is throwing lemons at you all the time. You are busy with so many things and you get so much done, and I keep thinking that I couldn't get half of that done even though I'm able bodied. You make me try more instead of giving up.

I hardly ever comment, because I'm too shy, but I read everything.

From:

havocthecat

I think that you are interesting and fun, and GASPers/JYGMLers still need to stick together. :)

From:

I love that you have a love for language and grammar. :)

Because threads like http://ysobel.dreamwidth.org/132660.html pop up unexpectedly.

From:

Haha, yes, this too. I laughed so hard through that entire thread, and I don't understand a word of it! (I blame the footnote. The idea of Elder Deities speaking with footnotes is just... I started laughing there, and then couldn't stop.)

So in addition to all the stuff I said below: you are crazyawesome with code/encryptionspeak skillz! Which I totally lack the mental fortitude to figure out.

All sorts of things! You appreciate words and the ways they are put together, and I can never NOT appreciate other people who appreciate that! And you do awesome things (I cannot knit, and have never played WoW but might, one day) that you post about.

Also you are brave even when you don't feel it, and post openly about things, and I so often don't post at all because the only things I have to say are the sort of personally/uncomfortably revealing things that I am secretly ashamed of. I'm terrified and occasionally out of spoons, too; I'm just not brave enough to admit as such to the Intarwebz, even when it might get me pettins. :D

I like you. You keep trying when it's really hard, and you don't sugarcoat what you're going through. And I like hearing about your knitting and your church work, and your self-education.

From:

logovo

Because I like knowing what you're thinking and enjoy your writing :)

From:

lferion

I read you because I met you in person, and thought (still think!) you are neat people, and I admire your grace and forbearance and sheer endurance in the face of life sucking.

I like your writing, and the way you have with words too. Plus you keep on being involved & making Things and generally caring. I totally support and love that.

*Hugs and love and many good thoughts to you*
