I'm just curious... who actually reads my journal? I mean, I get a max of 2 or 3 people commenting on each of my entries. And yet, I've recently survived two flist cuts. I'm so confused. Do people read my journal, nod smile and move on? Or what?

A quiz... what was my big birthday present that I posted about either yesterday or the day before? (If you get it wrong, I cut you from my flist!! Mwahahaha. I'm just kidding, but I do wonder. I don't blame you if you don't remember, actually, I have a hard time keeping track of everyone myself. But it will be an interesting experiment!)

a pretty, shiny & new cell phone (that looks almost exactly like mine, only in a different color :O)?

I do read your journal. A lot of the time I'm just pretty bad with commenting or I don't have anything to say. But yes, I read it. :)

Aw yay. *hugs* You get a cookie. And that's good to know, I mean, sometimes I just feel like I'm shouting into nothingness and yet at least 60 people have me friended! It's strange. But as long as someone's reading :)

[nomeremuggle.livejournal.com]

You got my phone. :)

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Hehe, yes I did :) Here, have a cookie! :P

[playfullips.livejournal.com]

I'm still reading! I'm just...really not good at commenting.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Oh, okiedoke :) Just so long as someone out there is seeing this!

[hermioneluna.livejournal.com]

I read. And to prove it, you posted about your cell phone. And I answered that without reading any of the other comments.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Whee! You get a cookie too *hands a cookie* All this is very reassuring, I really thought everyone filtered me out or something, *lol*

[exhaledeeply.livejournal.com]

Um, I can't remember if it was you or not, but was it a phone? >.<; I'm sorry if I'm wrong. I do read your journal, I read my whole f-list. I sometimes skip the community entries. But you know me, I'm pretty bad at commenting.


I wish I could prove I read...

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Ding ding ding! We have a winner *grins* I did indeed get a phone. And you don't need to prove anything, hon, I'll take your word. *hugs and gives a cookie*

[theaeblackthorn.livejournal.com]

I do not know it was a phone, I do not know you spent a Very Long Time *grins* searching for a ringtone. :D

Although I have to say, I find your posts terribly dull and filter them out constantly, lol. As if, you're one of the journals I read in in their entirety. :)

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

*pounces you* I never doubted, my love! ♥ :D You get a million cookies for being so awesome!

there we go. :)

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

*glomps* I wuv oo!

[candidlily.livejournal.com]

I read, or try to. PROMISE! It's hard to keep up with my flist sometimes.

But! It was a cell phone! I think...

But yeah. I don't comment on anyone's journal, so don't feel bad.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

cell phone indeed :) Cookie for you!

I believe you! *hugs* hee, I have a similar icon... *points*

You've got another fan!

[(Anonymous)]

My name is Thea, and I've been a devoted Ewan fan since Trainspotting.

I came across your journal while looking through the amazing lj icons people make of Ewan, and I've been checking your journal for updates religiously. I look foward to your posts.

I felt I had to comment on this, just to let you know you've got a few fans out of the livejournal world also ;)

To prove I exist, you can see my webpage at www.AmberEyed51.deviantart.com

Re: You've got another fan!

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

*blushes* Wow! You're so sweet! A fan? Seriously? Wow. I can't believe it. Well! How's that for an ego boost? Thank you for your kind words, I'm not sure I deserve it but thank you! I have another post ready, by the way, mostly of Ewan, so keep an eye out for that :) I'd love it if you would comment when I do make it, tell me what you think?

Thanks again! ♥

[cheapcrowd.livejournal.com]

I read, I'm just weird about commenting. I always feel like I'm being really obnoxious and annoying. I swear, I have internet SAD or something. :|

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

You're not obnoxious and annoying, I promise. ♥ Good to know you're watching though :)

[novafairy.livejournal.com]

Do I have to comment? Ooookay. Anne asked, Steff will answer.
-> mobile phone.
I remember us squeeing about ringtones and the fab site, but neither of us were able to get a ringtone there. *BIGSIGH*

♥

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Hee, Steffi, you don't count because you are my DARLING and know me inside and out! Well... you know what I mean :) But I'm glad you remembered anyway, cookie for you! *cuddles*

[ringwench.livejournal.com]

I always read your entries! And you got a cellphone. Yes, I realize everyone else commented with this already but I really did remember!

*mwah*

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Hee, good to know hunnie *huggles* cookie for you!

Pretty icon!!!

[avoteforla.livejournal.com]

I do! I am just the worst commenter on the face of the planet unless I have totally cractastic to say. :"> Sorry.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

That seems to be a theme among the people on my flist! *lol* Maybe I need to find some people who actually like commenting! Haha. It's okay :)

[silver-sunn101.livejournal.com]

I read you! I don't comment unless I have something relevant to say, though.

I can't prove it (seeing as how I already read all of the other comments, I always do that first), but I am here! And on MSN ^_^

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Good to know! *hugs* I believe you :) I am quite reassured by all these responses, yey.

[crystal-lily.livejournal.com]

Heee, I read your journal! :) I'm just... a very very bad commenter.

And your birthday present was a shiny new cell phone... (whoa, that was yesterday or the day before? I'm completely losing track of time).

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

I have no idea what day it was, actually! Haha. All the days seem to blurrrr together.

And it seems like bad commenting is an epidemic *lol* But it's okay :) You get a cookie for remembering what the present was!

[nebulein.livejournal.com]

you got a shiny black/silver motorola cell phone. right?
and you know i read you. and you know i love you. (so much!) and you know i only comment when you're not online in msn/aim and i know i will have forgotten it by the time you come online. so really, i comment rarely because when i have a comment, i usually tell it to you in person. and i'd do it now, too. only, you asked for comments. *feels like a total dork* *sighs*

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

*giggles and glomps* My love! My neb! Of course I know :D You get a million cookies, like sas, for totally... ruling the world, or something :D I heart you greatly! And I know about the only commenting when I'm not online thing, that's what I do for you too ^_^

[lemurjoe.livejournal.com]

I do read your journal, I'm just not much of a commenter unless I think it adds something to the post or conversation. I can't actually say what you got for your birthday as I haven't lj'd for a couple of days but that's all my friends, not just you. Please don't delete me. :)

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Aw of course I won't delete you! You're thoughtful and smart and dude, online that's like gold. Not deleting you, no worries :) And I got a cell phone! Yay :)

[alovysa.livejournal.com]

me! I read your journal!! i don't remember the present though because I have not been checking my flist as much as I should. lol...but I love your journal.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Aw, thanks! Good to know *hugs* I actually haven't been checking my flist much lately either, lol :)

Gorgeous icon!

[humdrumtown.livejournal.com]

I try and read every one's journal that is on my friendslist. The problem that happens is, I have so many people that it makes it hard to comment on every entry. Or many entries for that matter, lol.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

That makes sense, I have the same problem sometimes :) By the way, I checked the stats for commenters on my journal, you're now in fifth place or something because of that long conversation on my post, haha.

[andburn1.livejournal.com]

I dooo. And will even more when you go to amish world.

And it was a cell phone, durrr.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Durrr.

[lakicons.livejournal.com]

I read. ;)
I'll try and comment more often to prove it. hehe. I'm just bad at that I'm afraid.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Seems like everyone is! *lol* It's okay :)

[fortunateizzi.livejournal.com]

i read.... if i don't comment, it's because i'm busy or i feel i don't really have anything to say.

but i will try to comment more! :)

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

You don't have to! It's just nice to know people do read my randomness :)

[culuyetille.livejournal.com]

Do people read my journal, nod smile and move on? Or what?

LOL actually that's mostly the case... well, I guess most people are like me, too lazy/short on time to comment most of the time. As in, we read through and do care about what's going on with you, but I guess I just drop comments when I think I can say something that'll help - either that, or random squeeing *g*

I've gone through flist trimming on occasion and I was really surprised because, like you, I don't get many comments for entry. But when I wrote a post saying I'd cut down on my flist, leaving only the people I believed I was on a regular talking-basis with and telling people who got cut off that if they didn't think that was right, they could poke me, I got a variety of 'glad to see you didn't cut me' from lots of people. So I guess in the end most people do read their flists, even if they don't comment, it doesn't mean they aren't there or they don't care... *ponders*

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

That's the conclusion I've come to... I mean I have to admit I'm guilty of it too. It's just that some people get by default 20 comments on every entry, and I'm wondering whether there's a certain type of friend (ie, fangirls, I suppose... you know, people there only for icons or whatever) who comments regardless. And then there are real friends who only comment when they have interesting things to say, and/or the time ^_^

[theamyrlin.livejournal.com]

I read you. I noticed that you took me off your list, though. :-(

I only comment on I feel I can add something of true value to what is being said. Unfortunately, those times don't come very often.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Aww, I'm sorry! I took off people I felt I hadn't directly interacted with in a while, and who might not care. But since you care, I'll definitely add you back! *hugs* I'm really sorry :( This is why I hate flist cuts, I hate being mean at all >.
