sereneOff to bed with me, but first:
Just told![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
intenselaura that I like the LJ things where people talk about me (ask me anything, tell me about me me me, that kind of stuff) but I'm always embarrassed to ask anyone to do that, so I rarely post those kinds of things. The second we got offline, I went to my browser to close it out, and there were these questions in mab8merlin's journal, right before my eyes, so the heck with it. Heck with *two* things, even. First, intenselaura's suggestion:
1. You know that "what would I put in a box to represent myself" thing? Well, I don't know what I would put. What would *you* put in a box to represent me?
and, frommabmerlin:
2.
I snipped some.
1. What's my name? (I'm hoping y'all get this one ;-) )
2. Take a stab at my middle name.
3. How long have you known me?
4. Do I smoke?
5. Do I believe in God??
6. My age?
8. Do I have any siblings?
10. What's one of my favorite things to do?
11. Do you remember one of the first things I said to you?
12. What's my favorite type of music?
13. What is the best personality feature about me?
14. Am I shy or outgoing?
15. Would you say I am funny?
16. Am I a rebel or do I follow all the rules?
17. Any special talents?
18. If there were one good nickname for me what would it be?
19. Are my parents still together?
20. What do I love?
21. Would you consider me a friend, an acquaintance, a good friend, or what?
24. What annoys you most about me?
26. If you could go anywhere with me, where would it be?
27. Do you trust me?

Date: 2004-02-27 10:01 am (UTC)- a collection of your poetry
- if I could get it, a recording of you singing something you love
- pictures of the people you love
- a copy of your favourite book -- Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, IIRC
- a copy of Laurel's Kitchen
- a piece of pretty, comfy, see-through clothing
Skipping silly question 1. -- tempted to give silly answer, but can't come up with one right now.
2. Take a stab at my middle name. Oh gosh. Should I know this? I hope not, because I haven't the faintest idea at this moment.

5. Do I believe in God?? Nope.

8. Do I have any siblings? Yep.
10. What's one of my favorite things to do? Spend time just being with people you love.
11. Do you remember one of the first things I said to you? May not be one of the first, but I remember one from some time ago. You told me (and ssm) about reading Like Water for Chocolate and having a dinner and movie party with foods from the book.

19. Are my parents still together? Nope.
20. What do I love? Your sweeties, your family, your friends, books, music, good food, good communication, the internet. Again, just naming a few.
21. Would you consider me a friend, an acquaintance, a good friend, or what? *smooch* Another one it seems silly for me to answer. :)
24. What annoys you most about me? Can't think of anything.
26. If you could go anywhere with me, where would it be? Considering we haven't met in person yet, the "with you" is much more important than the "where". Pretty much anywhere neither of us would want to avoid.
