INTRO POST! Of gills and dildos: stuff about me by someone much more interesting to read :)
So! *rubs hands* Have recovered from Pride and a lovely houseguest this week, trinity1986 (she of the Great Pride Parade Shoe Disaster), and so am finally updating. First up, the promised intro post for new folk, then out for a few hours :D, then coming back to catch up with all of YOU, and then a treehouse-and-transformer post. Then sleeeep. \o/
*surveys flist in astonishment* Good grief! Between random meetings, that friending meme a couple of weeks ago and Pride, I seem to have garnered over a dozen new friends. So, with no further ado, welcome *deep breath* amizada, aphrodite33, betgirl, crism79, dante_the_mouse, flawedamythyst, iamnotkris, kittyfauxpas, morphing-lanes, neeuqdrazil, onci_dium, petit_rhino, sacredwhimsy, shing, shippyflo, softgraysky, the_great_waka, trinity1986, yue_ix to the Jungle! I can't wait to get to know you all better. *gestures to a comfy seat, hands you a beverage of your choice*
Rather than boring you all with me talking about myself for an intro post, I prevailed upon themoderatrix who was my roommate for several years in university and dear, dear friend for...good grief, over a decade now...*feels old* to bring you all an insightful and amusing commentary on yours truly by way of introduction. She has done an outstanding job with no other instruction than the fact that "RUN! RUN WHILE YOU STILL CAN!" was already taken. :D
And yes, it's all true. Except for the gills. Obviously. *shifty eyes*
DendriteJungle had virtually no scarring from the surgery.
But she still misses her gills.
DendriteJungle is an enigma, wrapped in a mystery, wrapped in a vest. Okay, she took off the vest. One thing you can be pretty sure about Den is that she will remove all clothing the minute she gets the chance. Except for the undies, which stay on to keep the sofa clean.
DendriteJungle survived university by showering her various culinarily gifted roomies with outrageous compliments and offers of marriage. This is how she ate for four years. Her incredible powers of survival sensed that the most efficient way for her to eat was through flattery, and this became her mission through her entire undergraduate career.
DendriteJungle likes to fold small things into smaller things that are pretty neat. She likes to cram (in an orderly, catalogued kind of way) as much into her a) home b) mind c) life as she can get away with and then some. To visit Den's den is to spend hours just looking at all... the... cool... little... things... Same thing goes for her brain. And, natch, her life.
DendriteJungle will ditch her work and travel fourteen hours to be at your mom's funeral. Then she will have a lively discussion about dildos with your uncle at the wake.
DendriteJungle will collapse at your feet in gratitude if you bring her chocolatines from Montreal.
Den likes chocolate, paper, cats, treehouses, knots, bullwhips, dolls, wood, leather, books, garlic, cheese, writing, reading, fanfic, the web, TV, growing things, sleep and warmth.
DendriteJungle is the only person to whom I have given a voodoo doll of myself.
Nuff said.
Really, what more do you need to know? *beams, smishes her* A few notes:
Honestly, I hardly remember the dildo conversation (though it does certainly sound like me *ahem*); I can only assume that he asked me what sort of stuff I was doing, and I was involved with the Women's Union at university at the time, and organizing workshops on women's health and sexuality, and he was very congenial after the fashion of themoderatrix's wonderfully open family, so...I didn't think twice about it at the time? It really didn't seem strange in context - and only much later was it pointed out to me the incongruity of the conversation and the situation... :P
ANYway, I'm always happy to blather on about myself, so if you have any questions, burning or otherwise, just let me know. And anything you want to share about yourselves (links are fine) I would love to know more about you too!

- It is a very cute voodoo doll.
- YES. CHOCOLATINES. GAH. drooooool....
- YES. AWESOME ROOMIE FOOD. ASKFADALGGGGLSLUUURPmoredroooool (Though I feel it necessary to clarify that I'm not a mooch, really; I did buy ingredients and was perfectly happy cleaning up; I just hated cooking and was delighted to leave it to those far (faaaar) more capable than myself (and was appropriately appreciative of that fact) and who actually, y'know, enjoyed doing it. :D
- These days I'm liable to keep my bra on too. Apparently I'm becoming modest in my old age.
