Watch me spam away the drama

"Let's start the new year off right; The problem with LJ: we all think we are so close, but really, we know nothing about each other. So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about. Ask away.

More than one question is allowed. I'll answer happily :)

Then post this in your LJ and find out what people don't know about you!"

Uhm, your favorite books/writers/singers? And your favorite movie? Oh, and since I ask pretty much everyone because I'm weird, your favorite fruit?

And I'm with you on spamming the drama away. Indeed.

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

My favorite books are mostly ones I read as a child: Alice in Wonderland, The Wizard of Oz, Gone With the Wind. Margaret Mitchell (who wrote GWTW) is my favorite all-time writer, but these days I read Stephen King and Jonathan Kellerman and I read all sorts of eclectic stuff; I guess now I'm kind of a reading whore. ;) Singers -- well, I love David Cook, and Bono's my favorite-favorite, and lately I'm into one of kiddo's favs, Taylor Swift ('cause she's so fun and cute). My favorite movie (points to icon) is The Notebook, with Brokeback Mountain not far behind. Basically if I get into something enough to cry, I love it. My favorite fruit...hmmm, well, I *love* tangerines! But mostly I eat frozen grapes.

Maybe if we spam enough we can keep LJ alive all on our own!

What do like most and least about Sawyer?

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

Most: his vulnerability that isn't hidden as well as he'd like for it to be. His secret wish to be a hero. His sense of humor. And of course the obvious shallow stuff -- the HAIR! the EYES! the DIMPLES! the MUSCLES! the HANDS! and y'know, the beard and the back dimples and the feet and everywhere else in between.

Least: that's easy. The way he behaved toward Kate in the last two seasons. No WAY would the Sawyer *I* know let her treat him like a doormat, and not only let her do it without a word, but keep coming back for more. PFFFFTTTT!!!

What's your favorite color? How many kids do you have? Did you go to college? If so, where?

What was your favorite subject in school? How long have you been writing?

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

My favorite color is coral. Followed closely by aquamarine. Mostly I like 'em both together.

I have 2 kids, one in high school and one in college.

I went to the University of Tennessee for my bachelor's, and my master's came from a little place nobody's ever heard of, Cameron University.

My favorite subject in high school was English. My favorite subject in college was Psychology, which was why I went on to do my master's degree in it. Since then I haven't done a thing with it except meddle in my friends' and kids' lives and run psych_30.

I've been writing since I could first spell my name. I used to write stories at my grandma's kitchen table all summer long when I was a kid. I've been writing fanfic since August 2005. When I said I was gonna be a writer when I grew up, I never imagined where I'd end up! ;D

What's the favourite place you've ever visited?

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

Oh...in spite of the beautiful Caribbean beaches I just saw recently, I have to say that my favorite place was another set of Caribbean islands, the Virgin Islands. Especially St. Thomas. ESPECIALLY Sapphire Beach on St. Thomas.

Actually I found out one thing, I swear I thought you lived in Texas, but you don't, or at least your mailing address isn't in Texas.

Now for something else..how old are you, but you don't have to give me your exact age, you can give me '20's, '30's you know, just he decade.

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

Hee, I've lived in Mississippi for all the years I've known you. But I'm from Tennessee...maybe that's what made you think Texas?

you can give me '20's, '30's you know, just he decade.

Heh, well, you were getting closer. Let's say you were warming up with you said 30's, but you weren't *quite* there yet. ;)

how are you doing? I mean for real?

will you build that house you were talking about, and if so when and where?

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

For real? Well, January and February are never good months for me, but I'm trying to stave off the gloomies by writing a lot. Going to a lot of kiddo's basketball games and stuff. Otherwise, everything's just in a holding pattern. No big ups, no big downs.

YES, I will build the house, right on the site where the old Gatlinburg house burned down. I was all set to go when I got those plans, but now the economy has tanked, so I'm gonna wait it out and then see when it seems safe to go ahead with it.

[ella-bee.livejournal.com]

oh, I agree with gottalovev: that dream house in the Smokies or whatever, the one with all the wood!?! UPDATE US ON THAT!

... and I emailed you one, because it might be too personal for public posting.

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

Sadly, the house is gonna have to wait until the economy is better; I'm afraid to go ahead with it right now. I'll do it just as soon as possible, though!

I'll email you back in a few minutes. :)

Idk if I have a question. I think I know you fairly well. But I'm glad to see you around more, doing memes and posting fic and stuff.

Oh! I have one: are you going to go to a Cirque du Soleil show when we go to the Vegas GFG?

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

Awwww, thank you. *squooshes*

OF COURSE I'M GOING TO CIRQUE du SOLEIL, WILD HORSES COULDN'T KEEP ME AWAY FROM ZUMANITY!!!! And you're going with me. *nods*

[invisiblelove.livejournal.com]

Yaaaay, I love this meme!

Let's see. Do you remember what originally brought you to LJ? What prompted you to get one?

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

Of course I remember! It was LOST! Oh, and the wonderful early fic writers, who I discovered on lostfic.com and followed to their LJs. I wanted to do what they were doing so I got my own LJ and did!
