Ugh, in my experience LJ usually gets flaky like this maybe twice a year--usually it's only for a couple of batches of people based on which server you're on, but right now it seems to be everyone. That's almost better, I guess, because everyone knows things are a mess right now and people are less likely to get upset if something gets missed right now. Usually you will end up with a huge pile of notifications dumped on you much later, but obviously yeah, some of them float out into space, never to be seen again. :( It makes me itchy and paranoid that I've blown someone off! But I've gotten your comments on the meme--I suppose I'll respond in brief here that I'd be tickled to look at the story you put aside due to Yuletide! I'll write more about language on the meme itself later and hope the notification gets to you. :)
