I have strep throat AGAIN. Cry.

Unrelatedly, I'm thinking about using my DW journal as a friends-locked thing to talk about my imminent process of becoming a step-parent. I don't want to do it here because it would involve creating filters, a process I hate and have always avoided on LJ. But if I did it on DW, people who wanted to read it would have to visit DW to do so, because you can't crosspost to an LJ filter (and hi, I still hate creating filters). You can give access to OpenID accounts, so it's not like anyone would have to actually create a DW account, but they'd have to go to the DW site.

In my mind this doesn't sound too bad, because I feel like only people who actually wanted to read about my personal life (there might be a handful?) would bother, so I would really know who I was talking to, and no one would be spammed who wasn't interested. And omg, this already sounds like some kind of horrible "if you *really* cared you'd come read my other journal", which is not what I mean or believe at all.

In any case, my normal stuff is not going away from LJ.
