I know very little about some of the people on my friends list. Some people I know relatively well. I read your journal, or we have something else in common and we chat occasionally. Some of you I hardly know at all. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and, heck, that's downright exciting to me!
But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Even if I know you really well - take this opportunity to tell me something. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...she likes to bite her toenails while riding public transportation."
I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Then post this in your own journal.
(And if you've newly friended me, why not introduce yourself?)

Date: 2005-07-15 10:44 pm (UTC)We just got our piano tuned, and I may be getting to take lessons soon. My first love was my piano teacher in the 8th grade(of course he was flaming gay!). I used to make myself sick if I hadn't practiced because I wanted to please him so badly. I cried and begged my parents to let me move in with him when we had to move when I was in the 9th grade. My piano teacher said I could. I get to see him this summer. I'm so excited.
I love doing word puzzles and crosswords. :)
I wish I could make you smile, because you make me smile everyday. :)

Date: 2005-07-16 12:13 am (UTC)Yay for piano tuning! I still haven't gotten around yet to it but I suppose I should before the end of the month otherwise it'll be a problem when my duet partner wants to come over and practice. :P My piano teacher was an interesting person, she certainly had the qualifications (LTCL, etc.) but .. I can't put my finger on it but there was something I found not quite agreeable about her. And it was a long time ago (~10 years), anyway.
I'm pretty bad at crosswords and puzzles myself, but I don't mind looking at them and trying to solve them.
Some random puzzles I picked up from another person's blog:
