Okay, disclaimer: I'm exhausted today. Never mind how much stress I'm under at the moment. So, if this comes off exceedingly bitchy, I apologize.
The majority of my friends are all in different time zones. The closest is my BFF who is an hour ahead of me half the year (she lives in Arizona which doesn't observe Daylight Savings Time, so when we spring forward, she stays stationary). Everyone else is two or more hours ahead of me. Or, if you're H, 19 hours ahead. Although, in her defense, she's never called me either. LOL
Anyway, since I know I'm not on the same time as most people, I'm very diligent about checking the time before I text or call. While I know that you can easily ignore a text, I don't want someone to feel like they have to respond to me when it's bedtime for them. Or dinnertime. Apparently, a certain friend of mine isn't nearly as thoughtful because she started texting me at 5:30 this morning. I mean, I was awake - I've been up since 3:30 to be honest - but it just annoyed the hell out of me.
Am I wrong for being annoyed? It just bugs me because I feel guilty ignoring her texts, even when I'm trying to make dinner or am getting ready for bed. Maybe I care too much or maybe my mother did a number on me in regards to not offending people. Hell, I don't even know any longer.
On the bright side, LJ notified me that today is Zayne's birthday. I had to choose one to set up his journal and apparently I picked April 9th. So um, happy birthday, cowboy.
Now, I'm going to try and keep myself occupied so I don't fall asleep at my desk. Hahaha. And I promise, I'll try and stop with all these shitty posts. Oh, and if I changed my name on my journal to Cranjis McBasketball, do you think anyone would notice? Asking for a friend.
(Told you I was tired.)

Don't worry about it - I post here and it cross posts to LJ. And, I never even thought about it yesterday but I was only posting updates to LJ because there isn't a DW app that I know about. I was using the LJ app on my phone.

Date: 2019-04-16 09:51 pm (UTC)I have the LJ app too - very handy, although a bit more limited than on computer. I keep having to figure certain things out (like how to change an icon), and then I promptly forget it, plus the messages don't seem to have a way to delete them on it, so if I read them there, they sit there forever, and yet won't necessarily show up on the computer version (I don't get that at all).
DW should totally have one too!

Date: 2019-04-16 10:34 pm (UTC)It definitely came in handy yesterday. It was easier to update using LJ and FB than anything else. And they really should have one for DW, too! I have heard that the LJ app has some um... quirks... but that's to be expected, I guess!
