[01] give me a nickname and explain why you picked it.
"Poundcake", because you are sweet and kind of melancholy.

[02] am i lovable?
most definitely

[03] how long have you known me?
a couple of years

[04] when and how did we first meet?
i think it was at Sunshyn's Barbeque -- no, it was at a CT poly thing because you and sinnough and docoricon(?!) realized with david that he had stayed at your house before :D


[05] what was your first impression?
sweet, intelligent, gentle

[06] do you still think that way about me now?
yep

[07] what do you think my weakness is?
a tendency towards depression

[08] do you think that i'll get married?
i think you'd like to, but it wouldn't be a conventional marriage.

[09] what makes me happy?
people you love around you

[10] what makes me sad?
people you love gone

[11] what reminds you of me?
poundcake :)

[12] if you could give me anything, what would it be?
your old life back

[13] how well do you know me?
moderately

[14] when's the last time you saw me?
a while ago. at Diesel like a month or two ago.

[15] ever wanted to tell me something but couldn't?
nope.

[16] do you think i could kill someone?
i don't know. i think maybe if someone was threatening someone you loved, you'd do your best to stop it. and if that meant killing them, yes, you would. but i think it's more likely that you'd die to save a loved one.

[17] describe me in one word.
poundcake :)

[18] do you think our friendship is getting stronger/weaker/or staying the same?
right now it's the same. i'd like it to get stronger because i think you are a good person. and we usually have a good time when we hang out.

[19] do you feel that you could talk to me about anything and I would listen?
most definitly.

[20] are you going to put this on your LiveJournal and see what i say about you?
you did that already :)

I like this meme! (Although I just discovered a different variant of it that I might like even better.)

[01] give me a nickname and explain why you picked it.
"Poundcake", because you are sweet and kind of melancholy.

Poundcake is melancholy? Interesting. Not quite my association with poundcake. I guess it is the sort of thing you bring over to someone's house after their spouse dies or something.

[04] when and how did we first meet?
i think it was at Sunshyn's Barbeque -- no, it was at a CT poly thing because you and sinnough and docoricon(?!) realized with david that he had stayed at your house before :D

I'd forgotten that! (I mean that David had stayed with us back in the Mighty Purple days. That was before sionnagh and docorion had met, but yes, docorion was at the CT poly dinner.)

I forget, did you say somebody else who had been in the band still had a stash of Be Mighty T-shirts?

[07] what do you think my weakness is?
a tendency towards depression

You know, I know this is true (although it had been true for a couple years before I realized it), but it still surprises me when other people notice it. I was really depressed as a child, but that went away for the most part when I went to college, and for a long time I thought of myself as a really mellow, happy person. That's still sort of my mental image of myself. (And I hope to get back there.)

I've also had people tell me recently that I give off a vibe of being content, or at least of not wanting/needing anything. It's not true that I don't want/need anything, of course, but I can see me giving off that vibe. But I can also see coming off as depressed/needy. I'm not sure quite how to reconcile those two pieces of data, both of which ring true. (Of course, to some extent what I should be working on is the stuff inside, not necessarily the presentation. Although, you know, maybe a bow and some glitter...)

[08] do you think that i'll get married?
i think you'd like to, but it wouldn't be a conventional marriage.

I almost left this question out, but then decided I'd have fun making fun of anybody who said "yes". And darnit, you answered in a clever way that means I can't do that! :-)

[18] do you think our friendship is getting stronger/weaker/or staying the same?
right now it's the same. i'd like it to get stronger because i think you are a good person. and we usually have a good time when we hang out.

Yeah! I had a great time that time you and I and treacle_well ended up at Redbones; we should repeat that sometime! I haven't made as much effort to get together since school started 'cause I know how busy you've been, but I'd love to do some more hanging out.
