Scribblings & Greetings

DW sent me a few invite codes. I've extended an invitation to LJ refugees looking for a new home. Since my paid account has 100 userpics I can invite my monkeys and keep the signs. I may come up with a permanent theme but if not, no big deal.
I've spent more time on Facebook in the last two weeks than any time prior. In mid July I logged in for the first time this year to wish my sister a happy birthday. I've really tried to like FB. Because I have these big gaps between logins there's always something new. When I login I check up on people, play with the site, but eventually get bored and go away .... until the next birthday.
I have a pet peeve about greeting cards. I think they're a total waste of money. I refuse to spend $5 for someone else's words which rarely say exactly what I'd like to say. I find Facebook to be useful in sending greetings to far away people. When I do buy a card I usually opt for blank inside and write my own greeting. Back in the day I made my own cards with cartoons.
I'm still learning DW. It's similar to LJ but different. I'm sure I'll figure it, find a style, colors, a blog theme, and maybe discover a community or two to connect with people. I'm not obsessive about these things so it takes time for me to catch on. Right now I'm just happy I can access my account when I feel the need to scribble my thoughts.
