Friending Frenzy

I always mean to do one of these. Like I always mean to go through the kitchen cupboards and throw out the food containers without lids and vice-versa. And here I am, on vacation, with plenty of time on my hands

Hello. My name is Ted and I am...a Geek

[rainbow_goddess]

Hi, Ted! Fellow Aspergian here. You sound like an interesting and amusing person. Might we be friends?

[macanfitheach]

Certainly. A caveat, however - I don't update that often. I used to be quite the blogwhore but most of my friends moved over to FaceBook (including those on LJ) and abandoned their blogs.

I do read and comment regularly though - just don't expect too many mindblowing posts from yours truly. :-)

Love it! A geek AND witty. :)

I'll bite and thank you...

I'm an old fat lady with 2 cats and lots of computers and gadgets. I knit teddy bears and watch a lot of TV including baseball even though my team, this year, promises to be the worst team ever. I live in downtown Seattle in a condo that overlooks the stadium used for professional football and professional soccer. I work at home as a web producer - a job I love.

I write my journal for me. It's open and public and I'll worn you that I do post a lot.

angelamermaid one time volunteered the exact solution my Mom needed for her TV problem. Mon was on the southeast corner of the U.S. I was on the northwest corner of the U.S. and angelamermaid's location made us the perfect triangle of support. Mom was so tickled at the solution and am still grateful.

This reminded me that this is how I “met” Susan - from her comments on Angela's LJ! I'd forgotten that!

[“ITV? I'd forgotten about ITV! Brilliant!!”]

[susandennis]

Wow. Angela has been VERY very good to me. If I knew that's how you found me, I'd forgotten. I love it.

Aside: Yay Moss user pic! :)

I'm a fellow Canadian who is one province over from angelamermaid in beautiful British Columbia. My age is the ultimate answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe and everything. I live with three cats. I'm not quite on the slippery slope to "crazy cat lady" yet -- I don't think I am, at least -- only because I don't have room in my apartment for another litter box or the income for more vet bills.

I work on a seasonal basis doing transcription and editing. The job isn't very exciting, but it pays well.

I have Asperger's Syndrome. I was diagnosed about five years ago. This means, among other things, that I have a tendency to be socially clueless.

My journal is a mixed bag. Sometimes I write about the TV shows I watch. A lot of the time I write about the cats. Sometimes I complain about my job or lack of same. Most of my journal is open and unlocked and very few entries are friends-only, so feel free to check it out and see if you like it.

My name is Sophia, I am married with 3 cats and a toddler whose almost 18 mths old. And on the cusp of 40. With a kidney transplant from my hubby 4 yrs ago. How I got so lucky in so many ways remains a mystery to me, but I am nevertheless grateful.

I live in the same city as Angela. Heck, even work downtown like her. But more like the other end of downtown.

I am a vancouverite, even tho I've been in cgy for 13 yrs already. I always will be.

I <3 my baby, cats, hubby, work, ballroom dancing, and my transplant clinic.

Hello, fellow former-New-Brunswicker! I found you via over_forty, and thought I'd read up - you sound nifty. :)

I'm in Ottawa now and have no kids, have 4 cats with my partner N, and am in a geeky-ish tech writing/customer support job who is learning she likes editing and such. I make jewellery and do other crafty stuff, like to read and watch movies and telly (spec fic mostly), and love music of all sorts.

[angelamermaid]

Well hello there! What part of NB are your from? Being an Army brat, I'm from the Fredericton-Oromocto area.

[guruwench]

I was born in Perth-Andover but never lived there; lived in Plaster Rock, in Fredericton twice, and in St. Stephen. I wasn't an Army brat, we just moved a lot (unstable family situation, longish story).
