Happy 'Journal Day - Take 2!

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 [livejournal.com profile] 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!

I added you. I sometimes make fun of Florida because there's some crazy there. It's probably media observation bias. But I like to troll my friend in Tallahassee. In truth, I am drawn to it. It's in my French Canadian blood. Haha!

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.

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.

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!
