Cartoon network is airing "A Christmas Story Christmas". I will skip watching because a number of reasons number one of which is NO leg lamp.
Another thing I'm going to skip doing is trying to renew a paid LJ. Since wayback when the only two ways at that time to get an LJ account was either a token for a free one (anybody who joined got 5 of them to hand out to whoever), or you'd pay for it. I did the latter and have been up until Ukraine War. For the last three years, been getting extensions for a paid account because the payment function ceased working for anyone outside of Russia. At first wasn't an issue because they would automatically extend the time for active accounts. Then it switched to contacting them and having to ask.
I'm tired of pleading my case every six months and maybe it's better (safer money-wise) to go with a free account. Don't use most the paid features anyway. Removed most of my icons a few months ago, getting complicated having to choose from so many (some of which just holding on to for nostalgia, others lost interest in using). Hardly use the Mood icons and even less the Scrapebook, gave up the Link List. Dunno what effect this will have on my journal layout or how bad the ads are. Will find out after 29th.

From what I heard — I've got a permanent account.
