Happy 'Journal Day - Take 2!

[ghost_light]

My Livejournal is 10 years old today! I am thinking a good way to celebrate this milestone is hosting a friendzy!

You probably, all know the drill by now - post an intro below, get to know some fun people.

I will start, if,'journal doesn't mangle this post!

Hi! I'm ghost_light, I'm 43 and I suck at writing intros. I live in Anchorage, Alaska with my husband LonelyDumptruck and 296,000 other people.

 

I work days doing data entry (why yes, that is as exciting as it sounds) and helping out at a small real estate to afford what I really like to do - theatre and roller derby! 

 

I am a Talking Woman and resident stage manager for a burlesque troupe and I  stage and house manage for the Performing Arts Centre where I have been heckled by Bill Engvall and had Kenny G. stick his tongue out at me as we passed in the hall.

 

I am a  Skating Official (referee) in
the Derby Intelligence Compliance Squad for Anchorage's roller derby league.  Yes, that means we are DICS.
I look forward to meeting all of you!

 

So, post an intro, make some comments, find some new friends to enjoy!

Hi, My name is Kim and I suck at inros so here goes.

I am coming up on 6 years here on LJ next month. I am 43 yrs old, married and have 2 kids, one grown and one teen who is special needs, autistic to be specific and needs a lot of special care. I have 2 cats and work from home for a major health insurance company. My husband is disabled, all the above is a lot of the reason I work from home.

I love TV, mostly Doctor Who, Once Upon A Time, Grimm, Castle and anything Food Network but my schedule is full most nights.

As far as my journal, I have been on a hiatus kinda thing due to working overtime and I have been sick. I am not a huge commenter so if you want that type person, you don't want me. I have a large friends list because a lot of my friends aren't active and I hate friend's cuts. I know I need to but still don't like them. I love reading journals and what is going on in people's lives.

I love to make icons as well. I have communities for that and I am in a landcomm to fill the TV void. I have a Facebook but nothing is done on it that involves LJ so I usually don't give it out. Autism group, bingo group, etc. LOL

Hello I'm Melissa, 29, from Upstate NY. I always tend to get suckered into these things. I love them!

I write about my day to day activities, my battle with depression and anxiety which one Dr labeled Bi-polar how they cycle and another said nope it's just a mood disorder. Either way they effect my life on a daily basis even being medicated and seeking therapy.

I watch a lot of tv, don't blog about it much though cause I'm always like a month behind. DVR is a blessing and a curse.

My current obsession is Monster High Dolls. I blame my friend Tanya. She posts pics of them and I'm like aw they're so damn cute I have to have them.

I love baseball the Atlanta Braves to be exact. I have a health condition called being a NY Giants fan. This season has been tough! I try and follow the Montreal Canadiens it was much easier in college when I had the CBC. And I am OBSESSED with WWE Wrestling. I watch it religiously.

I try and keep up with my f-list on a daily, or every other day basis depends on the toll work took on me that day. I love commenting and I always comment back when I recieve them sometimes it just takes a couple days.

I'm sure there's eleventy billion other things I could say but I've said enough already.

Oh and I always like to add I like Purple, Dr Pepper and Colin Farrell.

Hi (fashionably late to the party via blue_eye…

I'm Emmy. I'm 25 from the Boston area. Currently looking for work and taking classes through a psych rehab adult ed program at a local university. I'm an aspiring writer, an art hobbyist, and a certified Reiki II practitioner.

Spirituality-wise I'm UU and I generally say I'm a syncretist and/or label-resistant interfaith person if you ask for more details. I was raised Catholic and many of my friends are Jewish, atheist, agnostic, secular, pagan and/or Christian so religion isn't a big deal to me though I tend to see Mystery as more or less Love when it comes down to it.

This journal is shared between myself and my headmates and tends to be a lot more personal, private and fandom-ish. I have a more public account at brides_koneko that I also use for crowdfunding and fiction.

My current fandoms are: Ace Attorney, Marvel Cinematic Universe/Agents of SHIELD, BBC Sherlock, Doctor Who and Game of Thrones.

Hey there I'm also 29 will be 30 this May. I'd love to read about your dating journey where I am too scared to right now myself.

here's my intro
http://ghost-light.livejournal.com/1221078.html?thread=7741654#t7741654

Oh, I totally get it!

Florida is low hanging fruit!

By the way, I was in Montreal just this past summer. First time I had ever been there as an adult, although next time I need to go without a church group. So many things to do!

Plus, the other chaperon couldn't get the whole "French is the native language" thing.

[sacramentalist.livejournal.com]

To be honest, I'm an anglophone French Canadian. The rural part of Ontario I grew up in has a history of French farmers. I mention it because it seems like Florida has become mini-Quebec.

Montreal is a wonderful city. They're usually quite nice to anglophone tourists. Don't be a local who can't speak French, though...

This is my solution to the Florida menace.

[blue-eye.livejournal.com]

Oh...the coast is more of a mini-Quebec.

I'm in Central Florida, which is more Michigan, Illinois, and Midwest.

Thank you for the graphic...if you read my journal within the next day or so (I have not posted yet) you will understand why. But I *really* needed a smile!

My name is Tisha, and I also suck at intros. :} I am 44 and live in N. Calif. I am a full-time single mom of an 11 year old girl and a 14 year old boy. Add the fact that I live with my partner, who is a part-time single dad with two girls: 13 and 11 years old, and it's never a dull moment at our house!

Five years ago I was laid off and got the opportunity to pursue my passion. I am a fiber artist and have a long-arm quilting business out of my home.

I live in a very small community in the mountains. Right now it's freezing and we are expecting a foot of snow on Saturday. Sweet!

I love the snow, and I am such a hippie mountain girl.

I am kind of sporadic on LJ. I've had this journal on-line now for 8 years, and I'll never give it up. There are times when I am able to post often and times when I'm not. I always read however.

Looking forward to meeting new people as my journal as unfortunately been "friends only" for about 4 years now (since I had a stalker).

[tjoel2]

Very cool website!

[tjoel2]

I noticed that you did "Idol". I did it twice a couple of years ago. It was a blast and very much challanged me to write, write, write.

[tjoel2]

OMG your icon and the first photo on your page got me! I'm a HUGE Johnny Depp fan. ;}

[tjoel2]

Your icon cracked me up! My daughter and I just watched that movie last week (one of my all-time favorites, but she had never seen it). She desperately wanted to be Buttercup in the movie, but quickly changed her mind, because her brother's name is Wesley (without the "t").

I am an artist as well, and if I don't get to do something creative on a daily basis, I go a little nuts. Luckily my kids and my partner know this about me and give me the freedom to explore that aspect of my personality.

Would love to read/chat/comment/friend you here! :}

[blue-eye.livejournal.com]

Add?

Sometimes I talk about Johnny...and post a pic or two.

[tjoel2]

More JD eye-candy? YES, please!

I do more posting pics of JD on Facebook than I do on LJ.

[tjoel2]

Okay, your one and only public post in your journal certainly got my attention! ;}

[tjoel2]

That photo is awesome!

[tjoel2]

Sounds like we have quite a bit in common! I sell on Etsy/Facebook as well (or at least try to, it's been very slow lately). I am a fiber artist and have a long-arm quilting business out of my home.

Winter has always been my favorite season, and people think I'm crazy for that. I live in the Sierra Nevada mountains just below a ski resort and I absolutely love it here.

My daughter and I just watched The Princess Bride last week. One of my all-time favorite movies, but she hadn't seen it yet.
