The Basics
Name: Jen
Age: 37
Pronouns: She/Her
Country: USA

The New Year
Do you have any resolutions?: More like "goals".
Are there any new books, music, games, shows, etc. that you want to dive into?: Waiting diligently for the new Baldur's Gate game to come out and Severence Season 2.
Are there any small or big events that you're planning for this year?: This year I am planning on getting a puppy. Woohoo.
Any new interests/hobbies that you'd like to try out?: No, but I very much want to stick to the hobbies I currently have and improving them! Unless you count training my future new dog a new hobby.
Did you accomplish your resolutions from last year?: (If not, that's okay. Just skip this one) Some!
What were your favorite memories from the past year?: Honestly, my family and I spent half the year sick. Either from Covid, the flu, or a cold. This year flew by and I don't feel like I accomplished anything big that I wanted to. Hopefully 2023 will be different!
Do you have any new years traditions?: Nope, but my kids stayed up until midnight for the first time. And they were less tired than my partner and I were!
Is there anything you'd like to do more of in 2023?: I want to feel more accomplished.

The New Friends
What kind of friend(s) are you searching for?: Active people who post about their lives.
What do you like to read about?: I love reading about people's lives, no matter how mundane they think they are. Long winded entries are my fav. I'm very anti-one liner entries.
How often do you check your friends feed?: Daily.
Do you have any deal-breakers?: No Trumpers or anti-vaxxers. Also, looking for consistency. Pet peeve is when people add me and then never bother posting again (or pop up every two months). I've been on LJ/DW since I was 15 years old in 2001. I am consistent and am looking for others to be the same.
Do you mind reading about fandom?: I do like fandom, but I don't have a huge interest in reading about it on DW.
If so, what fandoms would you like to read about?: Not looking for fandom friends. Occasional posts about something you read, played, or watched, sure. But I mostly love to read about people's lives, kids, relationships, jobs, etc.

Currently...
Reading: Harrow the Ninth
Watching: Alice in Borderlands Season 2
Playing: Nothing right now, maybe occasional Sims 4.
Thinking about: My kids (4 and 6).
Hobby/Interest: Planner things, photography, watercolor, animation, dog training.
Planning for: A dog!

Hi! We have some similar interests and similar mutuals. Would you like to be friends? :)

[pasta]

Yes! Sounds good! :D

[pianogurl330]

Awesome! Thanks! :)

I've added you, since we've got some thing in common, and I love the rabbit hole that is "planner things" :D

[pasta]

Nice!! And yes, I'm obsessed with planner things, rofl. It's a deep hole that I've been in since middle school. It's just gotten worse as I've grown older. XD

Hello there, thinking you sound interesting and would like to add you. I am a fangirl but my journal has mostly daily life stuff in it. I recognize myself in the 'long winded entries' description.

Also, new puppy!

Sounds good! As long as the majority is daily life stuff, I am down!

And yesss, pupppyyy. :D

Are there any small or big events that you're planning for this year?: This year I am planning on getting a puppy. Woohoo.
Awww! Much love from another dog owner to you! :D

Watching Alice in Borderline, too. But I am still in the first season. :)

Wanna be friends? :)

[pasta]

Yes, let's do it!

[haebin]

Awesome! :) ♥️
