Words... what do they all mean?

Hm, it appears Dreamwidth's importer doesn't distinguish between things it's imported before and new content.

So now I have some duplicate entries to clean up. Oops. And I guess going forward the tidiest thing will be to create any new posts on DW and tick that crossposting ticky to mirror them to LJ. So that's what I'm doing.

LJ dearies, you can find me at janetlin.dreamwidth.org. Sorry it's been forever since I did html. I'm siesiegirl on Tumblr (mostly reblogs) and janetlin at Pillowfort. Still feeling my way around over there; so far it feels like kind of a cross between Tumblr and LJ/DW.

I'm not terribly active or engaged pretty much anywhere these days; I am job-hunting and very low on spoons, though today my applications for transcription and captioning were accepted so I have a bit of a band-aid in the meantime.

It's funny that LJ being down makes me desperate to post when I haven't done so for over two months.

A big part of the radio silence is that my son was born two days after my last post. He's healthy and everything went relatively smoothly, but I was in the hospital from 9:30 am on the day he was born (Friday, and for the record he wasn't born until 11:04 pm) until Monday evening; and I want to post his birth story, but as you can probably infer, it's a bit of a long one, and as I have an infant on my hands now, opportunities to sit down and write up such an epic tale are thin on the ground. Wow that was a hell of a sentence. Anyway, because I'm a bit neurotic, I haven't wanted to post anything else in the meantime, because OMG it would be out of order! And the world would start spinning backwards or some crazy thing like that. So.

I promise I'll get it posted. It will probably involve me writing it down longhand in the snatches of time I have here and there, so that when I do have computer time all I have to do is just type it, which goes much faster than actually having to think while I'm at the keyboard. Plus when I do get on the computer I'm easily distracted by catching up on Twitter posts and Facebook because you know, SOMETHING INTERESTING MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED WHILE I'M NOT LOOKING.

I asked Monkey to keep the baby company for fifteen minutes while I take a breather (oh my gosh, he is high maintenance like you wouldn't believe, wants to be held all the time, and freaks out if he's awake and can't see another real human in the room with him. He's lucky he's cute because it's _exhausting_). She's been wonderful, if perhaps a little _too_ desperate to be helpful, and too effusive in her affection for him. But I would of course much rather have that than have her be resentful and not want to have anything to do with him.

And now it's lunchtime.

Trying out posting to Dreamwidth and making sure I've set up the crossposting properly.

Currently I intend to stay on LJ (so long as it continues to function, at least); this is just to cover my bases in case something explodes or something.
