My turn

[firecat]

I know very little about some of the people on my friends' list. Some people I know relatively well. Some of you I hardly know at all. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and I thank you.

But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...she likes spinach."

I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal, if you feel like it.

I feel like I've known you for around over a decade, even though we've never met.

I used to read your alt.poly posts prior to the year September never ended, and have enjoyed being a fellow wombat for quite a few years now.

Today, over supper, I was telling stories of meeting Canadian politicans. I realized that though I've met many many politicians in person (including the newly appointed Canadian Finance Minister when he was running in his very first election, my mother gave him a very hard time in our kitchen on the farm, he being a liberal, and thus suspect, and she being a ccf/ndp'r) I've never met anyone in the US who actually knows any US politicians (therealjae has also met tons of politicians, but I think they're all Canadian).

Lovely idea for a thread!

I hope we meet someday soon! (Hey, might you go to alt.polycon this year? It's in Boulder Creek.)

I know some very local politicians, but no state or national ones.

I wasn't planning on going to alt.polycon, but I'd love to get together with you!

Well, I lied, it's in Colorado Springs, April 23-25. But I hope we can get together.
