(no subject) [it's not life that matters but the journey...]

My boss has been gone for a week. He's coming back tomorrow and there's already some problems that i have to discuss with him. Tomorrow will not be a relaxing day. Ugh!

But on a more positive note, today's writer's block is interesting:

LiveJournal is turning 10 and we're feeling nostalgic. What was your first LJ post about?

I could say what it was about, but I'd rather do what I saw

linds_sunshine7 do, that is link you to my very first LJ post, which was in April of 2005 when I first got to Japan (the second time I lived there) and was living in my husband's parents' house.

so here it is

If you're interested in any of my other posts from Japan, let me know and I can link you to some of my favorites. I did that for

wolfpurplemoon and she was kind enough to say she enjoyed them. yay!

Before I go and sleep, I have a question for anyone who uses Photobucket: why would they randomly delete a picture of Star Trek that I uploaded to the site that I use for my actor community? I have two photobucket sites - one I use for personal pictures, and another I use for just pictures of actors and characters from movies and tv shows that I post on my community

thedailyactor. I found the picture (which is of Kirk, Spock and McCoy from a Star Trek episode), when I did a google search - it was on someone's blog. So what the heck? Is it copyright protected or something? When I logged into my account today, instead of my picture being there, they had a little box, with a note stating that the picture was deleted because it violated their "terms and conditions." Since when?? Has this happened to anyone with Photobucket??

yeah photobucket did that o me too it was weird!

I read that post - it was lovely, but you seemed so nervous ... I'd like to read more too please.

I had a photo deleted from there too - it was of a raunchy young man. Nothing too dubious, I thought. You certainly couldn't see anything! I think some of the Mods are much too keen.

I think I was less nervous than just a bit reticent or unsure of how things would go. I was really nervous when I lived in Japan by myself back in 1998; but this time around, in 2005 I was with my husband. I guess I was nervous about his moods, though, and about living with his parents. but they were great:)

I can definitely find some more Japan posts for you and send you links - probably I can do that tonight.

the funny thing about photobucket is that the picture they deleted from my account was just from Star Trek - so maybe it was a copyright issue? but I'd copied it from someone's blog, so it can't be a protected image. weird! are they really that strict about raunchy pictures? that's crazy!

Yes - I was puzzled.

Aw, sweetie. ^_^ ♥ I love your Japanese posts.

*frowns* I don't know about photobucket. Strange.

thanks, Dawnie! I sometimes go back and read them for fun! and I might be back there again in the future, who knows?

*hugs tight*

Yes, to anyone who is interested in Laura's Japan posts, I recommend them! :)

that's very sweet of you to say! I haven't had time to compile any of them, so I should just go back to the ones I sent to you, and just repost the links here.

*hugs*

Hey my friend!!! How you have been!!!
I bet you miss me these days.

Just in case, you can see my new update of this month here:

http://amiga-rippermod.livejournal.com/150669.html

Well...kinda busy myself and so on, no (almost) updates here, but I bet I miss doing those Writer's Block from LJ. I guess I've been missing a few stuff around as you see, hehehe!! Of course I'm still here, reading my friends page and so one...

Hi! I've been doing okay but just really super busy. I haven't seen you in awhile - you must be busy too:) thanks for stopping by and saying hello!!

have a great weekend!!

wow, I can't believe it has been 10 years since livejournal started that seems a long time ago.

I love your post from Japan.

I am not sure about the photobucket thing, I have never had them take down one of my pictures, sorry...

::huggles::

and I can't believe I've been on LJ for four years exactly this month!

thanks:)
hope you have a great weekend, hun!!

*hugs*

I first started reading your journal when you were in Japan so it was intriguing reading the first entry. It's been an interesting ride, hasn't it.

I've never lost a picture on photobucket, so I can be of no help there.

yup you're one of my longest friends here on LJ, thanks to the lovely Dawnie!! it's always interesting for me to go back and reread my Japan entries - things were crazy then. although probably more interesting than my life now.

the funny thing is, this photobucket site is one I use for just actors, so I have no idea why they'd mark a picture from Star Trek as something against their policies - all I can think of is the copyright issue.
