Poll: Identity posts

It seems to me that I haven't written a real sink-the-teeth-into-the topic for awhile. In the past, I've done a series of posts about identity, which have kicked off some interesting comments:
Security and Transformation
Being a karate student
Being a mother
Being a writer
Character flaws
and a couple which were locked to smaller filter groups.
Since I'm at rather a low ebb, fretful and indecisive, I am having a difficult time settling on a topic. Therefore, why not a poll?

LJ is clearly not the only thing in your life, and yet it is a steady piece of it right now - and can't have been, more than a few years ago - and also, as far as I know, you're the only one in your household who uses LJ. So if you felt like writing about what kind of a role that plays in your life, I'd certainly be interested in reading it.
Mainly, though, I just enjoy reading your introspection, on any topic. It's not the object that's interesting, it's the function. Self-awareness is probably the single biggest thing I can appreciate in a person, RL or on LJ (and lack of it, the most problematic). And you're articulate and write well. So I'm not much use on the indecision front, because if you chose to write an entry about the thoughts you've recently had about your process of trimming your toenails, I'd want to read it.
