Annie's Official Friending Frenzy!

Jun 16, 2010 12:39

After my recent complaints of LJ becoming a sad little ghost town, it was suggested that I host my own little Friending Frenzy. I know I have seen these wonders before, but I never paid enough attention to pick up any etiquette involved. Then I decided that I really could care less. In Annietopia we do things my way, and I hope my way will ( Read more... )

Here via fireflylive.

Welcome to my LJ. It is full of genuine English eccentrics, of which I am proud to be one. Most of them are either musicians or academics, because I gravitate towards the former and work with the latter.

I am 46, happily single (not that I'd object to the right man, but I tend to keep meeting a lot of wrong ones, and I've got very good at fending them off), and owned by three rather splendid cats. I spend quite a large chunk of my time running after a tenor. Er, no, not like that. ;-) I merely look after a website for him and go round telling anyone who'll listen how good he is, because he's the world's worst self-publicist. When I'm not at work or doing that, I'm generally doing some form of needlecrafts, writing or translation. I've got a website here.

I also like cuddly penguins. There are not enough of them in the world. :-)

I do believe I will greatly like you! I look forward to getting to know you and hopefully learning even more English terms and phrases. Undercrackers is my current favorite.

Saw a link to this post on cortneeinc's page.

I'm Wendy -- 34 y/o SAHM to two boys; Brendan (6) and Keenan (2). I'm in the middle of training for a half-marathon, so that's what most of my posts are about right now.....but, there's usually blurbs about other happenings, too.

I'll add you!

Hello - sent over via cortneeinc. This is my intro below, and I generally post about five days a week.

http://wyliekat.livejournal.com/734467.html?mode=reply

Sometimes I'm cranky and emo, but most of the time I am a reasonably happy person, so my posts are about the small things in life. Still, I don't have sense of humour fail and I do appreciate a good writer, regardless of subject.

If I am of interest to anyone reading this, I'm definitely open for new friends.

Cheers!

Hi there, I'm Rachel, I'm 40 *SCREAM* and life does appear to start at forty which would explain the odd stuff in my life right now :)

I live in Bedfordshire in the UK. I'm married with one daughter and two cats. I'm interested in pretty much anything and anyone.

Specialist subjects:

Taking the piss out of everything
Doctor Who
Torchwood
Being Human
The West Wing
Period Drama
Certain sparkly vampires...
Reading
Writing
Faith
Music
and life in general.

Would love to be friended by anyone. :D

YAY for sparkly vamps! Honestly, it's like having an infectious disease in some quarters if you admit to being a fan.

I am full of rainbows and butterflies. Sometimes.
But not very often.
Mostly I am old and cranky.

You are not old and cranky. Goofy, lovely, and hilarious. That is what you are.
