Date: 2003-04-17 11:38 am (UTC)Eleanor Catherine Blair, and I won't mention the anagram. [1]
Where did we meet:
God knows. Probably an afp meet in the Druids.
How long have you known me:
Online, since around the end of my first year, so... almost six years. Damn, I'm getting *old*. IRL, a few months less.
How well do you know me:
Not as well as I used, or ought. Dammit, girl, you went off to Other IRC Channels!
Do I smoke:
Not that I know of.
When you first saw me what did you think:
"That must be LNR" (hey, I'm an observational genius, what do you expect)
My hair & eye colour (bonus points for natural hair):
Urgle. Dark black/brown, brown respectively?
Have you ever had a crush on me:
Not a crush, I wouldn't say. Some kind of moderate squash, sufficient to dimple flesh but not to bruise, perhaps. <thinks back> Yes! *Exactly* the degree of crush exerted by a small orange resting on a small kitten. After all, you were the first person I ever spoke to in query for more than a sentence at a time. And I *was* a timid little vole at the time, scary though that may sound.
What's one of my favourite things to do:
I shall ignore *all* the obvious comments and innuendi and suggest "breathing". After all, you wouldn't give it up if your life depended on it.
One of the first things I said to you:
God knows. "Hi, have a hug?" Something like that.
What's my favourite type of music:
No idea. Hopefully not Whitney Houston, or I'll be forced to hunt you down with, apparently, my shoulder-mounted death lasers.
What's my best physical feature:
Perkiness, bounciness and similar adjectives.
Am I shy or outgoing:
Yes. You *used* to be that kind of hyper-outgoing that's a cover for shyness, but that's true for most people at some point.
Would you say I'm funny:
But of course.
Am I a rebel or do I follow the rules:
As required.
Any special talents I have:
Lookin *good* across a large range of sizes, which is actually bloody unusual.
Would you consider me a friend:
Yes, though we have lost touch rather. I'm crap in that respect. <apologetic snivelling snipped for preservation-of-fragile-self-image reasons>
Have you ever seen me cry:
No
A good nickname for me would be:
RNL
Am I in love, and with who:
I refuse to answer on the grounds that I cheated and saw the other responses first.
Say anything to me here:
We ought to natter a bit some time. I guess I could get a chiark account, since that't where everyone I knew seems to have sloped off to.
Have I ever been hospitalised and what for:
Not that I know of.
Have I ever had a crush on you:
Gods no. Not if you've any sense, anyway.
Am I a Goth:
With that giggle? I don't *think* so....
[1] Intolerable Ache In Rear. I lied...
