Friends meme

I answered these questions on [livejournal.com profile] cruisedirector's LJ, so I sorta feel obligated to ask them in my own; turnabout is fair play. (I usually do a variation on this when my friends list pops up another hundred or so. So I'm early this time. Humor me.)

1. When did you first "friend" me? [Actually, you can find out the exact date by clicking here]
2. Why did you first "friend" me?
3. What posts of mine do you like to read the best?
4. What would you like me to write about that I don't?
5. Do you think we would be friends in real life?
6. How often do you read my journal?
7. What do we have in common?
8. Will you post this in your journal so I can answer?
9. Is there anything you want to ask me that you think you should know about me to avoid the impersonality of the internet that I have not already covered in some TMI post or other?
Feel free to answer as many or as few as you like.

(Of course, you may also feel free to answer none at all.)

1. When did you first "friend" me?

before you started using the tracking tool! my guess would be around april of 2002.

2. Why did you first "friend" me?

another journal linked to a post of your where you wrote about a day that you had had at the place where you worked. i really liked your writing and it made me laugh so i friended you. oddly, i had never heard of you--i found out about your books afterwards.

3. What posts of mine do you like to read the best?

the posts where you talk about your family and what they mean to you or where you are passionate about something--politics or a piece of art or whatever.

4. What would you like me to write about that I don't?

i don't know.

5. Do you think we would be friends in real life?

we have met in real life. i think that yes, we could go to dinner and have a very pleasant evening talking and getting to know one and other. so certainly the potential is there.

6. How often do you read my journal?

whenever i read lj but i have a tendency to fall behind and play catch-up. like today i started 240 posts behind--eep!

7. What do we have in common?

we love books. we are passionate in our political beliefs. we think that friends and family *matter*.

8. Will you post this in your journal so I can answer?

i don't tend to do that lately but you could answer here.

9. Is there anything you want to ask me that you think you should know about me to avoid the impersonality of the internet that I have not already covered in some TMI post or other?

not off the top of my head but i tend to let people decide what they want me to know and let them tell me until i get to know them better than i know you.
