What are you interested in?: Reading, writing, photography, travel, art, cats, animals, Hobbytex, hydrotherapy, gardening, cooking, movies (I love Bollywood, some blockbusters/Hollywood, and Chinese cinema). Music (I'm stuck in the 70's-90's, grew up with punk rock and will die with punk rock, I think). History. Comedy, TV, I am a bit of a fan of some stuff--Star Wars, Babylon 5, Blake's 7, Buffy, Spartacus, Supernatural, Vikings.
What are your hobbies?: Weaving, I love it. I do tablet, inkle and peg loom weaving. Reading, though I've been a bit slack with that the last few years. Photography, wandering around art galleries, procrastinating by looking at real estate (I don't know. It's a thing.), cooking, eating out, going to the movies, being occaisionally fannish, daydreaming, procrastinating further by suring around eBay.

LJ
How do you use LJ?: The regular way? I post photos, stuff about my life, sometimes I review films or books. Whatever takes my fancy, really.
Do you comment?: Yes, but not frivolously.
What kind of LJ friends are you looking for?: People who I have something in common with. I don't mind how often people post or comment, everyone's different, so I have no expectations in that regard. Friendship.
Returnees -- How long have you been away?:
Returnees -- What have you missed about LJ?: The old interface, even though I do still have it, I don't like all the upgrades.

Anything else you'd like to mention?: I got my first LJ in 2001. Lordy, that's 15 years, one year older than my oldest grand-niece!

I am a carer, so there are periods when I don't post because I'm simply too tired. I have my own health issues as well, so there can be stretches of up to a few weeks with radio silence. Don't think I've gone, though, I'm here--just tired. Like the phoenix, I'll rise again. :)

A weaver?!!! I knit and spin, but haven't taken up weaving yet, though I have been feeling the itch.

Also: bees are awesome. Friends?

I love it, I have to say. One of my nearest and dearest has an Ashford loom and she makes gorgeous stuff on that.

Bees ARE awesome. :) Friends indeed.

You sound interesting. I think we could find things to talk about, although I'll pass on the punk rock.
