Hey! Let’s not bring up the sculpting thing, k? I’m on a roll here! And dammit, FDWTFUN, I haven’t chased ANYBODY other than Anamorphic. I’ve BEEN chased, but I’ve not CHASED! Chasee, not chaser. Got it? Damn you people! Making me look bad here! Heya, **imthjckaz** , glad you could make it. Ignore the bloody puddle in the corner. It USED to be Rasa, but then I had to get wu-tang on her ass. Now, where were we, Anamorphic? Ah yes, dry or extra-dry martini? Tell me about yourself. I’m curious. ---

Extra dry, please. Thank you. Tell you about myself? Well, you already know I’m a writer and all that. The whole starving artist thing we talked about. To be honest, I’m not starving this particular month. Hope that doesn’t matter too much to you. There’s a chance I might be starving next month, if this damn job doesn’t get off the ground. I had Chinese food for dinner. So not starving. Hmm, what else? I turned 30 a few days ago. People keep asking me if turning 30 freaks me out. Nah. 75 will weird me out a bit, but 30 is no big deal. What else would you like to know? ---

30 is a good age. I’m looking forward to 30 myself. I seem to only continue to get better with age. 😃 Hrmm…what else? Married? Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound? Willing to visit Chicago often? Do you have IRC? Do you like spicy food and red meat? Got anything against actresses? How tall are you? This is fun. I like quid pro quo! ---

But, but, but…but I LOVE Rasa. She’s just cramping my style. Sigh. \ Oh, sure. She can pick on ME, hiss at ME. I can’t even bust out a little wu-tang. \ Sorry, Rasa. _sniff_ ---

Single, yes. On IRC currently. You’re not too short. I’m about 5’3" myself, although I do have a fondness for platform heels. “Favorite” anything is hard. Music: A3, jazz (especially Miles Davis), Stereolab, Los Lobos, Portishead, Paul Simon…uh…others. Authors are tough, too. I read voraciously and would have much more furniture if it weren’t for all the damn bookcases. Fiction and non. No mysteries, love stories or crap like that. I do still read Stephen King, though. I can’t believe I admitted that in public. Sheesh. I kinda do hate LA, but haven’t spent that much time there. I’m sure it has positive points. Maybe if I had the right tour guide… Let’s just bypass the sculpture reference, okay? Do you want your own welcome thread? If I open one that only means I’ll have to start swimming through the throngs to get to you. I’m not sure how I feel about that. Uh…okay. Longest relationship? Do you like dogs? How many fingers am I holding up? Do you like getting dressed up and doing the town as much as sitting at home wearing sweats eating ice cream? Do you wear good shoes? ---

Longest relationship: 3 years. I love dogs; growing up, we always had dogs. I miss them. I want to get a golden retriever, but I’m going to wait until I can move from this apartment to a house. Why, you’re holding up two fingers, of course. Yes, I love getting dressed up and hitting the town, and I also enjoy spending quiet time at home. These days, I think I might possibly enjoy the quiet time at home a hair more, but not by much and that could change at any time. Shoes… er, my shoes could probably use a little work. Perhaps we could go shoe shopping? Hmmm. Everyone else seems to have left the thread. Or do you feel like we’re being watched? ---
