galadriel1010Purloined from too many people to mention. If I've not done yours, let me know and I'll do it! Although I'm already running out of things to say...
I know very little about some of the people on my friends list. Some people I know relatively well. But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...she likes office supplies." I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. (Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal. In return, ask me anything you'd like to know about me and I'll give you an answer.)

no subject
Date: 2010-12-10 07:44 am (UTC)There's some stuff from a few years back that I don't remember, and I actually managed to read a Torchwood fanfiction and not realise that it was one of mine.

Date: 2010-12-10 07:22 am (UTC)The kids in the ESL class were much cooler. I got teased a lot in my regular class because I was quiet and nerdy.
Since I love the book High Fidelity, I'm gonna have to ask:

no subject
Date: 2010-12-10 10:12 pm (UTC)I write fluffy domesticated Jack/Ianto stories, or just curl up in bed. When I'm at home I play Sims as well, but I've not got it with me here.
no subject
Date: 2010-12-11 05:00 am (UTC)I like fluffy stuff - but not too sweet, cuz I can't handle the toothache, LOL. Curling up in bed is definitely top of the list, but with two teens, or one teen and an almost teen, it's a little hard to do :/

Date: 2012-02-19 12:06 am (UTC)Six siblings is a lot. I do have one, and I struggle to cope with that (but he does have a lot of instruments to make up for his lack of numbers). Are your siblings older or younger?
no subject
Date: 2012-02-19 12:10 am (UTC)What instruments does he play?
no subject
Date: 2012-02-19 12:18 am (UTC)He plays piano, clarinet, penny whistle (and tends to wander around with half a dozen in his pockets), harmonica, accordion, hammered dulcima and melodeon - of which he has two, one of which is the only melodic minor tuned melodeon we've ever heard of, because he's weird.

And a busy breakfast table it was. It was a bit like fighting for your life, only your life was a piece of toast.
no subject
Date: 2012-02-19 12:26 am (UTC)Never seemed to have any concept of appropriate times for loud instruments, though.
Sisters, they always have to mess things up :P

I don't know I wouldn't really trust anything I say I haven't slept properly (or at all?) since Wednesday.

Date: 2012-02-19 01:26 am (UTC)Really sorry to hear about the lack of sleep :( I hope your kid gets better soon and you get some sleep
