It's been so long since I've actually been involved in LJ land that I feel like I don't know many of you out there anymore. And I want to! So I propose this: Everyone who wants to - if many of you even still read me - leave me a comment telling me something personal about yourself. Either something I already know or something I don't know. Something stupid or funny - anything at all. Remind me, reintroduce yourself. I want to get to know you.

In a few weeks I will be getting my new baby, Lily, a Blue-fronted Amazon Parrot baby who is currently in Virginia being raised by her foster mommy until she is old enough to feed herself reliably.

I am so excited, and yet...

I still having been able to bring myself to bury Pierce. The 13 yr old Nanday Conure I raised from a baby, who died about two months ago. (She is wrapped up and in a box in my freezer.) I feel so guilty for having this new baby coming...I loved my Pierce so much...I still haven't said final goodbyes...

I'm possibly evil, but I know the time will be right when the time is right. ::sigh::

In other news, I dreamt that someone had caused a *Gigantic* (like a million square mile) piece of paper to fall onto my area of the planet...And as I stood outside watching it waft toward the ground I was trying to figure out whether it would be heavy enough to crush everything due to its immense size, or whether I could just go inside and get a knife and cut a slice for myself as it reached me, and thereby survive...

Welcome to my brain.

Hi Brad! ::waves:: ::hugs::

Really sorry about Pierce - I had a Sun Conure for a couple years and I loved him so much, it broke my heart when he died.

So exciting about Lily, though!

That sounds like a dream *i* would have. Brains are funny.

Thanks, and Hi! *hugs*

I'm Aaron.
I'm an aggressive reader, and I like peanutbutter sandwiches with lettuce in them, and french fries with ice cream.
Hope you get into a awsome mood!

What is it about penut butter that goes with everything, I wonder?

Thanks a lot, Aaron:)

Hi there!

So funny you wrote this today, cause you have no idea who I am, but I read some of your BTVS stories and left you some love and when you replied back I tracked your journal in case you decided to write more. So I've been lurking here for a few months, and I've wanted to comment but since you don't know me from Adam I didn't cause I'm shy. sooo, I'm a big BTVS/Angel fangirl, and the biggest thing happening with me right now is planning for dragon*con in Atlanta happening in Sept. My first con, my first time seeing JM in concert, and I'm meeting one of my online friends for the first time! Go me!

I just want to say that you sound like a great guy, not perfect, but who the hell is? Everyone has their moments, just being a human and not a saint, but I wanted to say that you have been really mature about the whole situation (barring the flushing the toilet/shower thing I just read, which I so hope you got there in time ;).

And since I've de-lurked I hope you aren't creeped out about me lurking, but I kinda feel like I've gotten to know you, and I was so hoping that you and Frank would work out, but I gotta go with your mom, it seemed to happen too fast and I was worried this would happen. But you gotta follow your heart, or do the 'missed the chance of a lifetime' thing. Very brave of you to do it.

Well that's enough of your time I'll waste, but now that I've come out of the lj closet I'll probably comment some more. Anything you want to know about me ask, I'm an open book. Well, maybe a 5/6 open book :D

Hugs, Christina

Well, how goes it? I am Kevin, also know as "Fruit and Nut Blend" thanks to my co-workers at Starbucks.

Let's see. Uhm, I have been friends with you on LJ for about, uhm, four years. (Thank you, LJ memory feature!) I got one of your icons from a community and decided to check out your profile. I like rainbows, kitties, playing video games, coffee, and music. I live near San Francisco and I want to move there eventually. I work at Starbucks, as a Shift Supervisor (Hazzah!) and yeah.

You know, it's quite amusing that we have been friends on LJ for a while and we don't really know that much about each other. ;) AHA!

If you have myspace: http://www.myspace.com/punkiboi. Horrah!

YAY! for getting reintroducing. I should really do this on my journal as well. So many people! @_@

Hugs,
Kevin

Um...I just hit the big 2-0. I don't really read Spander anymore, but there's two WIPs that I still follow because I got caught when I did read Spander, and yours is one of them.

*hugs hard*

Sometimes I mix together mustard and soy sauce and dip cheese in it.

I stopped being interesting about eighteen months ago!

Before that I was kind of loud in the Barat cafeteria.

I'm one of those people who doesn't really have secrets from anybody. Within half an hour of meeting the guy who moved in when my old roommate had to move out, I flashed him so he could see my nipple piercings.
I have a memory like a.... Dory, from Finding Nemo. People tell me things like, "My name is Josh" and "I have a younger brother" or "I'm an electrician" and next time we talk I'm like, "So sorry. Forgot your name. And you're a ... carpenter?" But my boss keeps misplacing stuff in the shop and I'm like, "The books are all over there. The scissors are on the second table. There's a scale ruler on the corner of the first table. The green fabric for the bower is in a box underneath this table. The paperwork you set down on my table three days ago is in this folder underneath this box."
I work in theatre. This summer I'm working for the second oldest Shakespeare festival in the country. Really I'm a stage manager but I also work in the props shop and am finding more and more that I prefer run crew.

Stupid or funny. I can do that :)

I loathe mayonnaise. Loathe. I don't want to be in the same room with it. I'm not sure I want to be on the same planet with it. Just thinking about it gives me chills. I really, really loathe it.

I'm not sure that I'm going to any of the Pride events this weekend in St Pete. (But I kind of wish that I'd gone to "Laughter in Paradise" tonight.)

I'm ashamed of myself for thinking that D would leave H after his accident (but I also am not sure that he still won't - it's only been a month). It's not that I think that D doesn't love H. It's that he (D) is so damned young and healthy that I can't quite picture him staying with a quadriplegic for the rest of his life. (And maybe, just a little, I wonder if I would have stayed with Joy in the same situation - cancer, broken down to its basics, has two possible outcomes: 1) you live, 2) you die. At some point, you either go back to your normal lives together or learn to live alone. I love H, he's a dear friend, and I've been there every day since the accident - but I'm not his lover. D's in a situation where he has his partner in mind but has to mourn his *lover* and their dreams. There is no way that I can understand what he is going through.)

Uh, that last wasn't funny. Or stupid, really. I meant this to be light-hearted and funny. Oops. I give before I really depress you.
