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 have an obsession with shoes (fucking duh) that is sometimes very hard on my bank account. And not an obsession in a Carrie Bradshaw "gimme those Manolos" kind of way. I mean, in a "no one will have Adidas like that so I must have them", kind of way.

+I have three lists: 1)Future Ex-Husbands 2)Boyfriends and 3)Boys I'd Like to Smooch. However, no matter how naughty I might talk about folks like Adam Brody or Orlando Bloom, the only two people I would ever SERIOUSLY entertain having an actual "groupie moment" with are Dave Grohl and Ben Ottewell. I'd prefer Ben.

+I've been known to travel far and wide for a run of shows. I've also been known to stalk bands outside of radio stations that they're interviewing at and then subsequently making an ass out of myself.

+Sometimes, but only with REALLY good pals, I've been known to wash my Oreo cookies down with Rolling Rock. It's 4:20, do you know where your Johnny Bravo is?

+Even though it's completely legal, I was a bit spooked when the cops walked by in Amsterdam while we were smoking a joint. I blame Bush.

+Yes, my hair is naturally curly. However, it is NOT naturally red.

+I give boys with British accents a fair bit of leway in the looks department.

+I have been a fan of the band, Live, since 1991. And yes, I am sometimes embarassed by their new stuff and even more so when the singer does what I call "the chicken dance".

+My mom was born and rasied in Barbados and did not even know what the Statue of Liberty was until she moved to the US when she was 15.

+I am 29 years old, and I am worried that my mother will rip my head off at Christmas when she notices that I have gotten yet another tattoo. She scares me. Yet, she's one of my best friends.

+On my one visit to LA, I saw only one semi-celebrity. That Angelyne broad who ran for Gov. with the other 1/10 of the California population. I was very disappointed.

+I've known Zahra for about three years now yet have only had the chance to hang out with her once. I plan on upping that number to twice come February. Because no one can get enough Zaz. ;-)

*sniffs* Sadly I don't, but I'm looking forward to seeing him again when a certain person comes out to the westside.

Yes, I know how that goes.

Hey, I've never seen her, you've totally got that on me!

Oh yeah. It's going to be Rolling Rock and Oreos for us, sistah. And this time, I don't even think I'm going to have to ask a perfect stranger to hook me up with the good stuff! Instead, I just get to ask a semi-rock star. Heh. Whatever works, huh?
