Over in her LJ, [livejournal.com profile] scribblinlenore mentioned being stuck indoors for a blizzard and how she thought it would be a great opportunity to spend some time getting to know some of the new people on my flist. Which I whole-heartedly agree.

So...tell me something about you. Favorite character. Favorite food. Something funny you do. Whatever you like. Just make it something that gives me a sense of who you are.

There's no pressure to participate, of course. If you'd rather just lurk, that's fine, too. But if you feel like coming out of the woodwork, I'd love to hear from you!


I think I do this like once a year and since I'm feeling a bit sour, and this exercise always makes me smile, I'll start...

1. I drink like six glasses of water a day,
2. I still read Smallville stories even though I don't watch the show anymore.
3. I love potatoes.
4. I love turtles; I plan to buy one as soon as I can afford the damn terrarium.
5. I think I would rather be blind than deaf since I can't imagine not listening to music.

*bonus for the new folks
6. I dislike cats. A lot. I'm allergic to them, and believe they are actually evil creatures bent on world domination. As I am also bent on world domination, waiting on [livejournal.com profile] ethrosdemon to take it over, you can see why this is a problem. <-- gacked and bastardizard from [livejournal.com profile] musesfool

*Please keep in mind that you don't have to participate if you don't want to, and that this isn't about me responding, but you know, about sharing. I know somebody out there must know what that word means.

**ETN: I meant to mention this ages ago, but the LJPTB are reimbursing paid users an additional two weeks of time due to last week's outage or shortage or whatever it's being called. If you pay, use this, and people I've bought account time you better fucking use this for real, I want my money's worth!

(like a couple people, i'm lurking about, but this is pretty fun so *SPAMS*)

o my favourite books are the picture of dorian gray, charmed life, and i, lucifer which probably discloses something terrible about my personality like inside i'm a camp 11-y-o drug smack addict
o i made a vow to create a legend before i hit 40, & now i'm starting to panic
o my father once seriously checked me for the 666 tattoo because i wouldn't go in church without screaming through the service
o when i was 10 i made a 'pros & cons' list of being a girl vs being a boy. i still can't remember which won.
o i've stole this for my flist, 'cause it's a great idea :D

You're the third person to mention I, Lucifer would you tell me about it. I'm terribly curious at this point.

oooh, who else mentioned I, Lucifer? i shall have to look. *is nosy* XD

okok. SO. it's about. ... Lucifer gets incarnated into the body of a writer, just before the writer's body dies [suicide], & he has a month 'test run' of being human. it's an idea prompted by god, who wants to tie up all the loose ends before the apocalypse but not because the world is ending. nuh-uh. just 'cause. XD
so it's basically about Lucifer coping with being human, which he does by taking lots of drugs, getting drunk, & having his version of the story made into a film - while trying not to give in to his mortal body. oh, & staging a coup with his lads, & snarking a heap at Michael and Gabriel. Lucifer is terribly snarky. :D

the writing is this mix of crude language and lush descriptions; you'd think it wouldn't work, but it's very masculine & i adore it [though this is why half the people who start to read it drop it, i must admit]. it's definately worth a poke with a blunt stick.

but then, i would say that, wouldn't i?

... okay. erk. i rambled. *runs away!*
