Less of a meme and more of a youyou

(gacked from [livejournal.com profile] obsessedmuch)

I know very little about some of the people on my friends' list. Some people I know relatively well. I read your fic, or we have something else in common and we chat occasionally. 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.

My personal goal is: to get over my writer's block, write my Obscure Santa thingy, and perhaps do something illegal this weekend.

I aim high.

I will strive to make no mention of food at all in this comment. :) And, er, my favorite book is Melanie Thernstrom's The Dead Girl (http://www.oceanstar.com/true-crime/tcreviews-t.htm) and it's out of print, so every time I go to used bookstores I look for it, and I buy every copy I see and then give it to, well, everyone I know and like. I think I've bought and given away over 20 copies of the book. That's sort of weird and, hey, does not involve food!

Okay, fine, I like spinach.

*laughs*

You guys and the spinach are out of control.

It's like saying "don't think about pink elephants, but really, tell me something random about you and animals that walk on all fours." Um. That made sense in my head.
