In which I am Paranoid: Friends-Locking

amari_zI don't think anyone will much notice, but I have started to friends-lock many of my old journal entries. Moving forward I may be f-locking entries that mention my personal life--either when I post or shortly thereafter.
Why? Well, certainly not out of any sense of megalomania. ; ) But I've been reading too many articles about privacy and the internet and it's making me a little crazy. So, doing this might improve my mental health. (And note that I said "might"--actually it's likely I will continue on as unbalanced as ever.) : ) Anyway, I don't think this will make all that much difference to anyone--but if there's someone who is interested in reading this journal and has not friended it, they might start missing more entries than before. Also, I guess friends are going to need to be logged in to read f-locked entries.
I should probably mention that anyone is free to friend me who so desires. I will usually friend back as soon as I notice.
As for fic, I'm not currently planning to lock any of it, although that might change at some point.
If anyone has any complaints, questions or a desire to tell me I'm being more crazy than usual, please do express yourself. : )
Edit: I forgot to say that if there’s anyone on my friends list who does NOT want to get the personal posts, I can filter you out if you just let me know (and I won’t be at all offended by the request).

I'm on a Doctor Who kick, so here's more of my sentiments in an avatar. Since we're in the US, I'm only up to number nine, but I love Christopher Eccleston to death, and have since Shallow Grave.
