...is to take on this wicked meme that
arandil13 unleashed upon the world. Somehow, when I think of that, I get this image of pregnant Arandil clicking "POST" and cackling madly while a volcano erupts in the background and nine nazgul gallop out from her office....
The point of the meme:
Where did we meet?
How long have you known me?
When is the last time that we saw/spoke to each other?

What’s one of my favorite things to do?
Am I funny?
What’s my favorite type of music?
What is my best quality?
Am I shy or outgoing?
Am I a rebel or do I follow the rules?
Do I have any special talents?
Would you consider me a friend/good friend?
What is a memory we have once had?
Have you ever hugged me?
How well do you know me?
What is my favorite food?
If there was one good nickname for me, what would it be?
What is my worst habit?
If you and I were stranded on a desert island, what one thing would I bring?
What is my favorite fandom?
Who are my favorite characters in that fandom?
What was the last thing I said to you?
Will you repost this so I can do it for you?

The point of the meme:
YOU fill in the blanks about ME even if you dont have any idea what they are and send it back to ME. But first post a blank one out to all your friends so they can return the favor to you. Be honest!

Date: 2006-02-15 06:19 pm (UTC)Where did we meet?: On your LJ. I got here through a link that you had at ff.net, after reading a comment of yours on somebody's story. I found AMC and quickly became addicted to it. Then, I worked up the courage to post a comment and... the rest is history.
How long have you known me?: Since last October, I think.
When is the last time that we saw/spoke to each other?: Yesterday, through comments to my Valentine story. But I've my mind set on meeting you in person some day, even we're old and grey when that happens.
Do I smoke?: No.
Do I drink?: Rarely?
When is my birthday?: September the 16th. I remember it well because 16 is one of my favorite numbers.
What was your first impression of upon meeting me?: I was amazed and very pleased by how friendly and communicative you are. And how modest about your excellent writing.
What’s one of my favorite things to do?: Write/Read
Am I funny?: Oh, yes. I can remember at least three times when I snorted various liquids on my computer because you had not placed a "FUNNY CONTENT BELLOW" sign in your posts/comments/e-mails.
What’s my favorite type of music?: Hmmm, I remember a time when you were listening to a lot of Duran Duran. You like many of the pop and rock n`roll classics, or so I've noticed.
What is my best quality?: You have many, many qualities. You are smart, funny, honest, talented, creative, understanding, open and not at all judgemental, communicative, supportive... and the list goes on and on from here.
Am I shy or outgoing?: Both. There are things which you are outspoken about, especially here, in the LJ community, but I think you are pretty shy in real life. Or you used to be, at least.
Am I a rebel or do I follow the rules?: You are a rebel. Both in private and outward, but only your close ones know this. Er.. right? :)
Do I have any special talents?: Oh, yea! You are a great, great, great writer, an excellent editor, you can make incredible candy and ice cream and you are the best person to talk to.
Would you consider me a friend/good friend?: I consider you a very good friend.
What is a memory we have once had?: Well... we've got lots of memories. That first reply to my first anonymous post. The gigantic squee that I could not hold back when I read the Christmas fic I've received from you.
Have you ever hugged me?: Virtually, very often. And I've wished that I could hug you for real more than once.
How well do you know me?: Pretty well. Our having many things in common and discussing them has helped me get to know you quite well.
What is my favorite food?: Er... something that did not have a face, for sure. I don't really know, pizza with something that I can't remember right now and that Bobby makes real well. And my favorite ice cream flavors.
If there was one good nickname for me, what would it be?: Don't know. I'm crappy at finding nicknames. Do you have one?
What is my worst habit?: Do you have such a thing as a really bad habit? Except the nails/fingers biting thing which everybody seems to have, to some degree?
If you and I were stranded on a desert island, what one thing would I bring?: FEANOR. Err... wait, I would bring Feanor. Tons of paper and writing instruments. We would figure other things like food and shelter easily, but we'd be goners without writing materials.
What is my favorite fandom?: the Silm fandom, and the LotR one as well.
Who are my favorite characters in that fandom?: MAEDHROS, followed closely by Feanor and the other six sons, Finrod, the Rivendell Twins.
What was the last thing I said to you?: "How did I do?" at the end of your reply to my posting of this meme.
Will you repost this so I can do it for you?: I did and I'm glad.
Well, how did I do? ;)

Date: 2006-02-15 06:46 pm (UTC)I've always wondered! Wow, that's great! Now why didn't I just ask?? Though, to my credit, there probably wasn't time between the discussion of religion and family choices and Feanor and slash and.... ;)
But I've my mind set on meeting you in person some day, even we're old and grey when that happens.
Me too! And when my sister (hopefully) moves to England, I'll be in Europe on occasion, so that's a thousand miles closer. ;)
Both. There are things which you are outspoken about, especially here, in the LJ community, but I think you are pretty shy in real life. Or you used to be, at least.
Right on. :) I was very shy as a child from being picked on a lot, but as I got older and meaner, I've become quite outgoing. Now I don't think I'd call myself "shy" at all, although when in a new group for the first time, I prefer to sit and listen rather than fling my opinions around.
You are a rebel. Both in private and outward, but only your close ones know this. Er.. right? :)
I would say I'm more of a rebel than a follower, yes, but I fall into a gray area with that. I stand up for what I believe in, regardless of the rules, but I'm not one of those people who breaks rules just to break rules. They are just as shallow and as much of followers as the blind sheep, imho. ;)
Don't know. I'm crappy at finding nicknames. Do you have one?
Felak and the 'gund at the moment, with Felak being the "angel" and the 'gund being the "devil." In middle/high school, I was called "Ed" after the insane hyena in The Lion King. Lots of people also call me Dawny, and my dad used to call me Dawn-bird.
Do you have such a thing as a really bad habit?
Taking on too much? But I'm working on this and trying to cull my obligatoins to those things I really care about (my writing, SWG, betas for friends, etc.)
Well, how did I do? ;)
You did great! Wow, you all know me really well...either that or I just talk about myself a lot. ;)
