If you need to go away for a week or so, we will all remember you and be happy to see you when you get back. :)
Would it help to make a deal with yourself about specific things you want to get done while away from LJ? So you could say - "I'm not doing LJ right now, it's time to do X." Even if X is something ordinary like the dishes or whatever you haven't had time to do.
LJ is such a routine for me, I find myself instinctively going to my friends list even when I don't have time to read anything, fic or posts. Which is very unproductive. So I'm the kind of person who would be better off cutting it off entirely when I'm short on time. (Not that I always do that when I should.)
And if you try staying away from LJ for a week, and it makes you very unhappy - you can come back! I'm all about breaking rules that don't work.
