browngirl and telynor:
If I'm on your friends list, how do you know me? Even if it's obvious, even if you know me RL, please comment with a short blurb about how you know me.
Also, please give a tiny little biographical blurb about yourself. Tell me how old you are, where you're from, a little relevant information like that.
If you read my journal but don't have an LJ account, leave a comment anyway. I know there's at least three of you out there. :)

Date: 2003-04-23 03:42 pm (UTC)I like reading and watching sf and have heard some filksongs here and there but (not being musically inclined) have never filked myself.
I am 36 years old, single woman, with no kids. It's hard to tell from this entry but I write for a living (copy for McMaster-Carr's catalog) during the day and am training to be a bartender at night.
I do have one instrument, it's a didgeridoo which I practice intermittently. Or when I think the neighbors aren't home.

Date: 2003-04-23 04:25 pm (UTC)I met you at the very first GAFILK I went to -- 2001, I think. It was my first, at any rate. But, I was dazed and overwhelmed at entering the filk community for the first time, so i don't know that we could really be said to be acquaintances then. I was extremely curious about all the filkers I'd met, however, so I lurked unsuccessfully on r.m.f (not my thing. I rarely lurk there now.), talked a bit at #filkhaven (want to start doing that again, actually) AND found Debbie Ohi's page of filker journals. I read yours for quite a few months. But the real way I met you was that you emailed me after I posted something on r.m.f, and asked me to do the GAFILK banquet for 2002. I was overwhelmed and honored. You made me feel really welcome. Thank you. *HUGS*
Since I stayed with you and
We all remember second edition AD&D when people threw their low stat in charisma, because you never used it for anything. At least that's what all the min/maxer guys did in the campaigns I played in. I used to joke about travelling around with a bunch of assholes because they all had single digit charisma's. I want the world to be heavy on the story-telling and role-playing. I want even the most unlikely peasant to be able to sing an aria that could bring tears to your eyes. Wish me luck.

Date: 2003-04-23 05:41 pm (UTC)You know, I have no idea? I expect I followed a stunningly insightful comment you left on someone else's LJ. I keep you on because you don't overwhelm me with commentary ^_~ but you're always interesting. Also, because you life seems to just be on an upward swing, and reading about that is encouraging.
I'm 27, currently a desert rat, and doing absolutely nothing with my life. It's very tedious.

Date: 2003-04-24 11:44 am (UTC)I met you about a zillion years ago when you came to America.net for an interview -- I'd just started playing Jedimud then which was hosted at America.net. Since then, I've panicked because I couldn't find you *anywhere* the night of that damned fire -- still remember the feeling as I walked up and down that stupid hill asking everyone about the occupants of the building before I resorted to driving to every hospital in the area, I've rejoiced while you've gained your "life" back with Kitanzi, and I've wanted to brain you many times for your very bad jokes & puns on Jedi.
Currently I'm sentenced to life in Hell (read: New Jersey) while waiting for the job market to rebound so I can move back to Orlando and the Mouse. I have 5 cats and no significant other, tho I am taking applications :) I drive a kickass Mustang GT Convertible that's way out of place in Jersey.
What to say that you don't know? Hmm... Since the last time you saw me I've had about 8" cut off my hair. Minor, but the only thing I can think of :)

Date: 2003-04-24 08:34 pm (UTC)You set me free the day that you found me, leafing through the dusty old book you found at the yard sale. You may not have noticed as I slipped through your fingers, and I did not know that I was waiting for you until I felt sunlight touch me for the first time in more than a century - but I am where I belong once more, and I can only hope that the blessings of love set free have graced your life as they passed from me to you in that moment.

In fact, I'll be performing a tribute song at work for our latest release on Monday (something I've done for almost every game I've worked on [long before I'd heard of filk] but this will be my first time performing with a band of co-workers). I am also the father of twin 2-year-olds, Casey & Riley (there's a lot of my time taken up there), and husband to gifted artist Beckett Gladney.

Date: 2003-04-26 02:20 am (UTC)I am old enough to know better, and young enough to want to, anyway. Lived the vast majority of my life in the NYC metro area, with just enough time outside it (read: Bal'mer, MD) to know that now I want to leave. Two children and one spouse (not legally so, nor by common law, but only because New York doesn't acknowledge the latter) of which I am aware, and whom I love greatly. But open to expanding the family by adding adults and/or children when we feel it's appropriate.
It's good to know that There Can Be More Than One -- being one of the At Least Three, you see...
