Friending a Frenzy

Mar 07, 2007 11:48

I've seen several people on my flist do friending frenzies in the past. Even gained some wonderful friends through said frenzies. And, for awhile, I've considered doing one myself. So I've decided "Today IS the day!" So I bring you... Amber's Friending Frenzy ( Read more... )

friends, friending frenzy

Wow! I actually made it to the first page of one of these things!

I'm going to cheat and plug all three of my journals at once for people to add, while I cut and paste my standard entry for these Friend-zies.

Reader, writer, tinker, editor, thinker, retailer, dreamer.

Irrepressible dictionary.

Occasionally does duty as a wise old mother elf in leather.

44 years old and proud of it. A 4'10"-ish legally blind curvy armful with long grey hair, a heart of stone, a silver tongue, a mind like a steel trap, nerves of Saran wrap, and a gimpy leg.

I literally see the world with black outlines around objects, which makes me feel like I live in an animated movie, but which plays hell with my depth perception.

I think in music, and I sing... tolerably well, I'm told. But Kate Thornton can vouch that Stephen Hawking dances better than I.

Bookseller of juvenile and other titles. Comic book and sci-fi dealer. Literary collaborator.

My norda journal, Syzygy, is about me and the people in my life, both online and offline. You will rarely see memes, and you will never see posts about politics, religion or issues.

My booksbynight journal, Bookseller By Night/Really Tired JOATAMON By Day, is about titles I'm reading, publishers and writers I'd like to support, and pretty much anything in the book industry that interests me.

The mikescomics journal is for those people looking for updates about my and my partner's business, Mike's Comics.

I have an obsession, probably an unhealthy one, with Time and its passing. I am not afraid of Age... I am not afraid of Death.... I *am* afraid of Loss.

Anything else about me, you can pick up from my profiles on both journals and my Memories.

Not only the first page, but the first ONE! Welcome! And it's nice to meet you "officially". I've seen you around in various places (Scandal Sheet! and popfiend's journal mainly). Nice to meet you! And I hope you don't mind if I add you?

Nice to meet you officially, too! [It's getting harder these days for me to track who knows me from where...]

Please, add away!

Certainly!

Heh - I like to think that *I'm* interesting, even though right now my LIFE is far from interesting.

Yeah, I know that feeling! I'll go so long without posting just because nothing interesting has happened to post about and I don't want to bore people with "Went to work. Customers are stupid. Came home. Cats are adorable."

Me personally, there's no such thing as too many "Cats are adorable" posts.

The old fellow in my icon has been gone for three and a half years, and I'm definitely suffering from feline deficiency.

So ahoy with the cat posts!

My Precious Pretty Princess Feline Goddess Lady Kitty (a.k.a. Sterling) has been gone for a year and a half now. She was nineteen when she left me and I still miss her.

But hey, cat adorable-ness can be found at preciouspretty...that's my general posting place for pics of our various cats.
