Nothing like a random friend-remove notification to make you wonder where, how, or what you've done wrong/messed up. Especially when it's someone you thought you were on fairly decent terms with.

Should probably drop her a note, ask what's up, but I think I'll wait a little bit since there's a chance it might sound whiny, accusatory, or something. Because the only thing I can think I've done wrong lately is accidentally call someone else her name in a conversation, which is understandable as sleep deprived as I've been lately.

Ah well. Time to piddle around a bit more and then maybe try for some more sleep. 5 hours of sleep after being up 24 hours is kind of a sucky deal after all.

I didn't know there were friend-remove notifications. TBH I have considered removing one or two people from my friends list because I know them IRL and I don't know any other current LJ users IRL, and I kind of wish I didn't have to censor myself to stuff I don't have to worry about getting back to people IRL (e.g. complaints about family, posting fic porn, etc.).

Oh goodness me. I imagine as a rule it'd be really weird having people you know IRL on LJ. The only people I've met IRL on my LJ are people I met through LJ so it's not really an awkward situation since they've already been there done that.

Yeah, I got into LJ when I was a lot younger and it was sort of a different place. It was my only online space and I told all my friends and stuff. Most of them did not ever get a livejournal though, so I can just flock anything I don't want those people to see...but a few of my friends did have LJ and we friended each other. And I've been thinking about dropping them but now that it won't be discreet, and I am waaaay too timid to have THAT conversation (plus to say what will inevitably come across as "yeah I don't trust you"), I'll have to continue dealing. I can mostly post what I want and everything, it just sometimes feels confining.

You could just make a posting filter that doesn't have them on it? It'd take care of the issue at least.
