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!

I'm Kasey. I'm nearly 30, female, living in western Washington with my fellow of 5 years and our neurotic corgi-golden retriever mashup pup. Mashpup? Whatever. I'm super laid back/easy going, I don't get offended easily and therefore also swear like a sailor and am quite crude. I'm not an atheist, but I might as well be. I accept everyone as they are, but if something does rub me the wrong way, I make myself scarce in regards to it. I won't argue about politics, religion, or children.

I work in a bakery a couple days a week and spend the rest of my time tinkering around the house. I write a food blog, I am a published writer, and I'm a photography enthusiast. I'm also a gamer (Warcraft, mainly) and an avid internet user :P I waste a lot of time on reddit, Pinterest (just for the food), Ravelry, and I near-obsessively search Netflix for something 'new' and fun.

I read a lot. Current series I'm working on is Hugh Howey's Silo saga. On the second book at the moment. Also love The Hunger Games, A Song of Ice and Fire series, the Temeraire series, and I'm a Brit-lit nerd (including Arthurian legend).

We don't have cable, so I rely on things like Netflix and Amazon for my t.v. show fixes. I <3 Supernatural, Sons of Anarchy, Orange is the New Black, Breaking Bad, Doctor Who, Stargate Atlantis, King of the Hill, Bob's Burgers, and Archer. Oh. And Chopped. AMG how I love Chopped...

As far as LJ goes... I don't post a whole lot. I kind of got in a funk and didn't want to read or write anything. I'm trying to work my way back into the swing of things, very slowly, but new friends means more reasons to post! All are welcome :3

I've added you, if that's ok.

Temeraire! <3
(I've intentionally not been reading because once I start the second book for real I'll slam through two and three and then I will be caught up. *sigh*)

I've made it up to the fifth book, I think? Then I stopped reading things all together cause life got crazy and I didn't have time to read anything. By the time things slowed down, I started from the beginning because it had been sooo long and I love the books so dang much, but again, life went WHOOSH and before I knew it, I had picked up another series and left Novik far far behind. I figure I've got lots to read in that series now, since she's released quite a few I haven't gotten my hands on yet. Once I finish my current series, I'll probably pick her up again and not let "crazy busy life" as an excuse again ^_^

I've added you - would love to see your posts!

[mcgoggins.livejournal.com]

Added you back!

Hope you don't mind that I've added you! You seem interesting. :) I'm Sandy, nearly 28, living in New Jersey. I've been with my bf for a lot of year and living with him for 5+. We live with our lovely kitty.

I pinterest a LOT. I love reading (enjoyed Hunger Games) and watching TV (we are really on top of GoT). I post usually once a week, although I'm not terribly regular with commenting and posting. I'm trying to get back into it.
