I normally don't do these...

...because I don't like this particular style of "pay attention to meeeee" (while acknowledging that everything on LJ is "pay attention to meeeeee"). But I am putting it here to see what jodawi says about me (see Question 22).



01. Give me a nickname and explain why you picked it.
02. Am I loveable?
03. How long have you known me?
04. When and where did we first meet?
05. What was your first impression?
06. Do you still think that way about me now?
07. What do you think my weakness is?
08. Do you think I'll ever get married?
09. What makes me happy?
10. What makes me sad?
11. What reminds you of me?
12. What is my best quality?
13. How well do you think you know me?
14. When's the last time you saw me?
15. Ever wanted to tell me something but couldn't?
16. Do you think that I could kill someone?
17. Who would play me in a movie?
18. If I were to be a color, what one would I be?
19. Describe me in one word.
20. Do you think our friendship is getting stronger/weaker/or staying the same?
21. Do you think that I am stubborn?
22. Are you going to put this on your livejournal and see what I say about you?

01. Your nickname is "See-thru Serene," because of your taste in clothing and your habit of seeming to wear your heart on your sleeve. (I wouldn't ever actually call you that, though. And I don't think you really wear your whole heart on your sleeve.)

02. I think you are lovable, and a great many people seem to agree with me.

03. I've known you 4 or 5 years or so.

04. We first met on alt.polyamory, in 1998 or early 1999.

05. My first impression of you [*I'm embarrassed by this*] was: young silly left-PC type.

06. I don't think that way about you now. I see why I got that impression, but the qualities that let me form that impression are now part of a much more wonderfully complex landscape.

07. Your weakness, IMO, is giving other people too much slack, but it's also a strength, and I see you working on the ways in which it causes you trouble, which is very cool to see.

08. I don't think you'll ever get married, although it's not out of the question if same-sex marriage becomes legal and/or if you or a partner needed a marriage perk such as health insurance.

09. What makes you happy is loving and being loved, and feeling surrounded by family, and being creative.

10. What makes you sad is loss, and not being able to reach a comfortable emotional space with a loved one.

11. A couple of things that remind me of you are the rubber "wombat" and the barrette that I have of yours that I keep forgetting to give back to you.

12. Your best quality is your willingness to think for yourself, and the results.

13. I think I know your online personality very well and your in-person-friend personality middling well and the deeper bits only a little.

14. I last saw you five days ago.

15. For a while there was something I wanted to tell you but couldn't, and then I told you.

16. I think you could kill someone, but you'd probably work very hard and successfully at finding some other way to stop them.

17. Kathy Najimy

18. Your color is red.

19. One word that describes you is open.

20. I also think our friendship gets slowly stronger as we nourish it.

21. I think you're stubborn about the inside of your head but not necessarily about your behavior.

I'm touched by a lot of this (and I *WAS* a young silly left-PC type). *smooch*
