The lovely [personal profile] damned_colonial has bought me a paid account at Dreamwidth. I think its great to support what they're trying to do, but I'm a bit confused about what advantage there is for me to maintain my paid account status. What do I get for my money? that I need?

I've never had a paid account at LJ. My account type there is old enough and basic enough that I've never had to worry about advertising on my journal. And anyway, I run adblocker, so I don't see ads anyway.

The only thing I missed at LJ was the ability to create feeds, and Dreamwidth includes that in its basic account. I don't use many icons, I don't think I need to subscribe to more than 1000 journals, or many of the other things I would gain from having more than a basic account. The only thing I'm slightly attracted by is polls. So here I go;

This is another angst ridden post about my overwhelming amount of stuff and things to do. It's all about how depressed I've been lately and how I feel completely powerless to do anything about it. But this time, you don't have to shout at the computer with no hope of me ever hearing the completely obvious thing I've missed.

Now that I've worked out about polls, you may be spammed for a while.

After getting you all to tell me what I should do today, I've spent the time checking what your answers were.

I haven't done any work.

But I've had a nice time on the couch with my husband.
