LJ out, Twitter out, Infinite Jest

LJ was down this morning* and as usual I freaked and kept hitting refresh. Those LJ pellets, they keep pulling me back. Twitter** was also down, but ::shrug:: it's obvious I'm not getting the amounts of fun out of Twitter that makes it a must thing each morning.

For a novel that I got motivated to read because it was an internet bookclub kind of thing, I haven't been checking out that much of what is going on with #infsum and the Infinite Summer blog, although I just found the more interesting (to me) Infinite Detox blog.

There is an LJ com that I joined, although the thing is dead, but even if it wasn't I don't know if I could participate. I tend to suck both at com participation and talking about why I like something. But I'm enjoying Infinite Jest very much. It's kind of a relief, since a lot of times supposedly fantastic novels turn out to be a dissapointment, with characters that I don't care about. The feeling I'm getting from Don Gately I last had reading The Little Friend, which left me wondering what kind of person Harriet turned out to be after everything that happened. I missed her for a long time after I finished The Little Friend.

I usually find mine when I try to sign up for what I think is the first time and discover that I already have an account with that e-mail address.
