Memes and other things to keep myself entertained
Thing the first--LJ Meme!
* Number of journal entries:: 2,645
* Number of people on your friends list:: 215. Some are duplicates, though. Time to do some housecleaning.
* Person who introduced you to LJ:: I moved to LJ from Diaryland in 2001 after hearing
poisoninjest talk about it.
* Still friends with this person:: Yep!
* How many people have you introduced to LJ:: About five or six.
* List everyone on your friends list who you have met in person:: 17flyingfish, 2sick2pray, _freyja_, _titania_, achaosofkittens, acousticdryad, afoundobject, aggiebell, an_caomhnoir, bailunrui, baranoouji, belladonnastrap, bellybalt, blackholly, brapolitics, burny_md, carmelonia (she talked to me, though I had no idea who she was at the time!), chickenhat, cicadaqueen, ciretose, conestra, dagger_garnet, dakinigrl, deliriouscat, druidchick, egosomnio, eiluned, ellasynda, evergleam83, faeraviana, fantasticmuppet, gsh, hawkeye251, hilandercs, hobgoblinx, hthottie, i_heart_crayons, interdisciple, kazoogrrl, kiaroskuro, kita0610, kittykatkca, leeecon, literarygirl, lm, madmoisellestar, marinatempest, medievalmuse, mydwynter, noralita, paganrose, parrish_relics, pawsfurme, raspberrypie, reedrover, roxyoi301, sabine42, samurailuci, secretshores, shadowcaptain, sidhe_etain, silverwolfe42, stridera, sunflwgal, sweettoothjonny, sylfae, tamnonlinear, tazira, teky4lf, tennyo, texmorgan, thewhitedragon, thewrongtim, tyhallmark, wanderlamb, wren2robin, yancentric
* Total LJers met:: 77. 35% of my friendslist. Not bad!
* 5 people on LiveJournal that you have known the longest:: (I'm taking this to mean people I've read/ had friended on LJ the longest) poisoninjest, kita0610, obsessedmuch, evergleam83, _titania_
* Anyone on LJ you can't stand:: Mostly the trolls.
* Name one person on your friends list you would most like to meet:: Just one? No way. Well, at the top of my list-- _siddal_, kebechet, maewitch, obsessedmuch, nalathilion, phloxblossom, thesecondcircle, zenmaster. ETA: AND WICKERCABRA, OMG!
* Ever ban someone from commenting in your journal:: See aforementioned trolls.
* Number of comments:: Posted: 18,264 - Received: 24,897
* Biggest pet peeve about LJ:: The way they make big policy changes and foul up test runs with no warning. The way they can't seem to hire a decent PR or customer service team.
* Do you feel close to most of the people on your friends list:: I have different groups on my f-list. I'm not particularly close to most of the fannish people, but I love their picspams and reviews and general squee-age. I have a group of people that I trust through my interactions with them, and they get on some of the personal life filters. I have people whose journals I read because I find them fascinating, and they probably have no idea that I exist. So it depends. I wouldn't say I feel close to MOST of the people on my friendslist. Maybe half.
* How many journals on LiveJournal do you have:: Currently, just this one.
* Communities I currently own/maintain:: Only dormant ones-- mcdanielcollege, witchy_reads.
Thing the second-- I've had several people recently tell me that they associate colors with me. Flissy says burnt orange. Greg says bold red. Brandie says saucy red. Coworker Pete says red. Tex has decided to nickname me Ruby. Does anyone else associate a particular color with me? If so, what is it, and why do you get that impression?
Thing the third-- writing. I'm going to start doing short work again. Maybe drabbles, maybe short stories. Give me prompts-- ideas or words to write a drabble around, like last time. In fact, I promise drabbles to the first 7 people who leave word prompts. Zap me!
Thing the fourth-- sharing a fabulous piece of Halloween-y writing fromtamnonlinear: Seven Things That Never Happened to Tam Lin.
