This is long overdue. I have decided to change the settings for this journal to 'friends only', meaning if you want to read it, you obviously have to be logged in and on my livejournal friends list.

There are various reasons for this, but mainly because this journal has a number of personal things on it, and I would rather them not be in the public viewing space. I intend to start up a regular blog, either here on livejournal or on one of my websites, where I will continue to post non-personal things.
Then again, I may not. In which case, that will be the end of my publicly accessible blog.
