A lot of people were seriously discombobulated about lj not emailing them people's comments, or notice of people's comments, or whatever it is lj does. Possibly an oddity of my own, but what's the fun in having lj tell you that you've got comments? It not only spams your inbox, it deprives you of the pleasure of going to your journal and seeing that there are comments and clicking to see who they're from. Like back in the days of snail mail when I'd call home from work and ask if I'd gotten any mail. My roomies had to be instructed to answer simply yes or no, and not 'A postcard from your friend Rita in England and a letter from your aunt and something that seems to be a card from someone called Laura McLaren.'
(And why were people so discombobulated at not being notified? Couldn't they have just gone to their ljs and looked to see if there were comments? I feel I'm missing something here.)

I hadn't realised I wasn't getting email notifications until I got up this morning and had gotten a crapload of email notifications from nearly a week ago, most of which were needless anyway since I'd already seen the messages in Other People's Blogs. I get the notifications because in doing a 9-5 (well, 10-6) and that being on a computer, sometimes it's nice to know who's replied to what (in other words, I'm a lazy ass).

And I will take note of your birthday. It sucks to have a birthday so close to Christmas since so many people will just combine your Christmas and birthday celebrations (and worse, presents), as

In any case, I hope you had a great day!

And we'll all wish hard for the good feng shui for your 2's and 7's. It's got to be significant somehow and you can't have gotten to this age with thoroughly bad luck, right? =D
