summer_jackel'cos I'm doing the random meme thing. This one's kinda neat.
Leave your name and
1. I'll respond with something random I like about you.
2. I'll tell you what song/movie reminds me of you.
3. I'll pick a flavor of jello to wrestle with you in. (WTF)
4. I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me.
5. I'll tell you my first/clearest memory of you.
6. I'll tell you what animal you remind me of.
7. I'll ask you something that I've always wondered about you.
8. If I do this for you, you must post this on your journal. You MUST.

3. Watermelon
4. Matrix moves on the freeway underpass! Get Noah! Get 'im!
5. Robynne introducing us. You seemed very reserved and I couldn't get an immediate feeling for your personality, which is unusual for me.
6. Dragon. Graceful one.
7. How did you end up moving to California?
8. You don't need to post this anywhere, really. I understand completely; I tend to kill memes with a requirement, though far less vehemantly so than I kill chain letters.

Date: 2005-09-27 08:51 pm (UTC)3. Just name a time and place.
4. That does make sense to more people than just us, but possibly not to anyone who reads this LJ. :)
5. I'm not too surprised. I'm coming to the conclusion that I do not, or at least did not, make particularly strong first impressions.
6. Shock, surprise. Someday I may want to talk to you about an artist's rendering thereof. :)
7. I wanted to go to UCBerkeley. I knew Robynne from online and she was in Oregon, and she wanted to move to the area as well, and Vynce was interested, and so the three of us made plans to all try to move in somewhere. And then Robynne ended up living with us out in NY for a bit, and so even though I didn't get in to UCB on my first try, we decided to all come out and I figured I'd try UCB again once I was a resident. I didn't, but that's fine.
That's the shortish version.

5. Hmm. Does reading your fics count, or posts on gargs-X? I don't remember the first time we actually corresponded.
6. Hmmmm. Possibly a German Shepherd, or similar canine. I don't know you well enough to know your totem, alas.
7. have you a favorite author/book/literary role model?
8. your obligations are indeed fulfilled. I missed your post, though, may have to go back 'n set me name.

3. lemon
4. hmm. I don't know if we have one of those.
5. Seeing posts from you at Gargs-X.

7. Have you been to a Gathering? Think you may be going to one any time soon?
no subject
Date: 2005-09-28 02:35 pm (UTC)7. I went to the Gathering in 2004, Montreal. I'd like to go to the next one but I don't think I will, considering I haven't got the money to go. ;_; waaaauuuugh! No fair! :(
:)
ACe of WHAT suit?
Date: 2005-09-28 01:29 am (UTC)...if you'd like. I'm just curious to see if you remember who I am. I'll give you this much of a hint, if you don't know I'll pester you for a few minutes about it come FC. >^_-<
Re: ACe of WHAT suit?
Date: 2005-09-28 04:45 am (UTC)Your character seems really familiar too. I am certain I have drawn him, probably at a con, but I don't remember or have a copy of the pic. So anyway:
1. You're tolerant of my apparently spotty memory. ;D
2. Can I give you a book? At the moment, its Soldier of the Mist, Gene Wolfe.
3. mandarin orange!
4. Not sure we have any. :(
5. Meeting you at FC, I am quite certain.
6. You are a cat!
7. Can *you* give me more details as to who you are and how well we know each other?
Re: All about me!
Date: 2005-09-28 06:09 am (UTC)1. Yes. I'm too forgetful myself to hold that against anyone
2. Sounds familiar, but I can't rightly recall reading it. >^_-<
3. Does it HAVE TO be wrestling? using jello in a sort of snow-ball fight would be fun.... could be.... given nobody has to clean up and I'm not wearing something non-machine-washable.
4. I remember you saying, "It takes a brave man to....." See if you can remember the rest of that line and what the circumstance was. ;)
5. ...see above, (hint, hint!) think... fuzzy!
6. *Laughs and nods* Yes... cat. Temperamental, socially bipolar. I'll tell YOU something.... you DON'T make me think of a Jackal. You're too social and friendly and you're entirely to generous. I'm thinking more like a very domesticated and very large bunny. Wanna be left alone SOMEtimes, but rarely because you've got so much to do and see and explore. ...then again, We've met.... what? Twice?
7. As mentioned above, we aren't but passing acquaintance. I know you draw, better still I have proof of it, and incidentally, the drawing you so kindly did in my book in January gets a LOT of attention. Me personally, I'm a furry artist, you may or may not have known that... I carry that book for more reason than just collecting doodles from OTHER people. We have a fair number of friends-in-common, so there's probably like a hundred people or so that know the both of us at least marginally well either online or in person. I'm also forgetful, so remind me to give you a glowstick at FC, because shiny things RULE! ^-^ No, not a 'coon or ferret, I just like bright glowing things.
8. Done!

3. Strawberry
4. There is a very specific way to spell y'all. It isn't that difficult a word, and yes, it is somewhat grating to see it in print...wrong.
5. Do you know I'm not sure?! No, it was on Gargs-X. For a moment there, I was thinking I'd encountered you on LJ first.
6. You are something a bit reclusive and possibly predatory, though I am not certain of that last. Possibly something feline, or if not a predator, then something similarly capable of holding its own, like an elk or moose.
7. That icon! Please explain the source?

4. pretty little fuzzy golden balls!!
5. You sent me a very kind email about my writing which, along withy all the subsequent ones, I treasure.
6. A fuzzy, happy, purry kitty cat. :)
7. Have you written any more on 'Immortal Blood' recently? :D

Date: 2005-09-30 07:30 pm (UTC)1. *ponders which of the 20 things that come immediately to mind* You balance me so very well. And we make a killer fiddle and harp duet. At least, we would if we ever got around to practicing. ;)
2. I think that 'Sex, Lies and Videotape' comes to mind around now. Copper Wimmin's Oasis, if you want a song.
3. how 'bout a nice mix of lime and raspberry?
4. Cute but kind of scary.
5. You were standing, a touch apprehensive and thoroughly lovely, outside of a local cafe.
6. Something feline, small and sleek and wild. Maybe a fishing cat. But you know I think of you as a blue tiger.
7. What is the next place you'd like to go with me?
