Who is the most dateable of your friends list?

[morrigirl.livejournal.com]

Oooh, this is a really interesting question. Of course, you didn't actually specify what you meant by "dateable" so I guess I'll just have to put forth my own definition of the term. I think of someone who is dateable as being, first and foremost, a person who wants to date and enjoys doing so. They are fun, attractive, and able to hold upo their end of a conversation. They are in the right mental and emotional state to be dating, and are no longer hung up on old flames. And, probably most importantly, they are open to any deeper committment that dating might lead to.

So, I went over my friends list with that criteria in mind. I decided I'd pretend everyone on my list was single even though most of them aren't simply because a lot of the single people on my flist (though definitely not all) are not very dateable by my definition. I also decided I'd choose one guy and one girl to be fair...aaaaand so I wouldn't have to narrow it down to just one person.

Okay, based on what I know about the past and present dating habits of the people on my flist, I'd say kdc4evr and greenblackevil are the most dateable.

How do you feel about each of your friends on livejournal?

You're Trying to Get Me in Trouble, Aren't You?

[morrigirl.livejournal.com]

Each of them?! Christ man, that's forty people! You want me to tell you exactly how I feel about forty people? Well, I said I'd answer every question honestly so *takes a deep breath* here goes nothing. But be aware, I may end up saying the same things over and over again simply because I have similar feelings for a lot of these people. I may also break this up into more than one response. Oh, and don’t think I don’t know that the only reason you asked this question is because you want to know what I think of you.

I am very fond of _unforgiven and I wish he didn’t find the act of living such a challenge. But the extent to which he can endure hardship is astounding. He has a remarkable amount of strength, and I hope with all my heart that love and luck and kindness find their way into his life. He certainly deserves them.

a_deal_with_god doesn’t have it easy either. More than anything I wish he would cease and desist all destructive behavior. He is so smart and so funny. If he’d clean up his act a little he’d see his quality of life soar. In the plus column, he knows what his weaknesses are and he knows where there are problems in his life and admitting that is the first step to solving them.

daver40 might just be the funniest person I know. He and I always have the most gut-bustingly funny AIM conversations. He really cracks my shit up. He’s also very sweet and generous and accepting of others. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t adore him.

divineagl is one of those girls who doesn’t have a boyfriend and no one can figure out why. Besides being tall, sexy, and all out gorgeous she’s a great friend, a superb conversationalist, and highly intelligent. She’s got a pair of fabulous shoulders that are great to lean on in times of stress. She is the best friend I’ve made since graduating from college.

dpsycho never fails to make me laugh. Back at Knox, before we even met, he was one of the main reasons I went to the improv shows. His timing was always impeccable and his brand of humor more cerebral than that of some of the other performers. He also has this ability to make any woman feel totally sexy in his presence. So, to review: he makes me laugh and he makes me feel hot. Really, what’s not to like?

I love electra310. I don’t talk to her as much as I should or would like to. Again, she’s an incredibly funny person whose brand of humor is very cerebral. She is very sharp, committed, and hard working. She has firm values and ideals. She is nurturing. Oh, and she’s just plain fun.

gender_euphoric is the other half of my brain. Everyone knows that. Really, when I was born the doctors hacked my head in half and shoved one half into his skull. How could I not love someone who is essentially me?! He and I have one of those once in a lifetime relationships where the connection and chemistry was just instant. This guy pitched a tent in my heart back in 1998 and I cannot over state how much I love and adore him.

I love greenblackevil. I do. Even though we kind of drifted apart after I graduated from Knox, I truly cherish my memories of those long and hilarious conversations we used to have in the Gizmo. He doesn’t know it but his friendship really helped me get through that final year. I was really depressed that year but he always managed to perk me up. I think the world of him and really wish we’d had the chance to become closer.

I like gwydionsw more then I had any reason to suspect I would when I first met him in fiction writing class. He’s a very laid back, whip smart, fun to hang around with kind of guy. He’s always great to trade quips and barbs with.

Ah, the lovely haemonic. Yet another person I wish I could have gotten to know better if only I hadn’t found myself entirely tongue tied whenever I was in her presence. Cute girls do that to me.

[morrigirl.livejournal.com]

From the first day I met her I knew I wanted to be irishelf’s friend and I continue to be mildly pissed at myself for not doing more toward that end. Which isn’t to say she’s not my friend, she is. She’s just not a super close friend, which sucks because when I read her journal entries I see a lot of my own thoughts. She’ll write about something she did and I’ll think “That’s EXACTLY what I would have done in that situation.” I like her. And besides being very talented, I think she’s a good person.

It has been so long since I last saw or spoke to jeiry that I no longer have any really specific feelings about her. That probably sounds awful, but it’s true. I still like her as a person and think she is a lovely human being, but I can’t really give you anything more concrete then that.

I’ve got a soft spot for jsb1750. His dry, sarcastic sense of humor and his fabulous writing ability make him an incredibly entertaining and sympathetic protagonist in the story of life. I wish he still wrote in his livejournal. I miss him something awful.

If it wouldn’t come off as creepy and weird I would totally erect a shrine to kdc4evr. There’d be an alter, and pictures of her, and candles. I would gladly worship at her feet because this girl has done so much for me over the years. She has provided endless support and shown limitless confidence in me. She has hugged me when I’ve been upset, bitched with me when I’ve been angry, and been giggly with me when I’ve felt girly. I don’t think I could have asked for a better friend. I love love love love love this woman.

kmanatee is so damn awesome! She can be the fiercest, additudal, don’t-mess-with-me-bitch woman on the face of the planet one moment, then morph into a sweet caring, friendly, funny, sassy lady the next. I think she is a darling person and I’m glad that I know her.

leopardqueen don’t take no shit either. She is strong and sassy and opinionated. She is also very open-minded, accepting, and boisterous. I’ve always admired her ability to connect with people from all walks of life. She is a great person who deserves to have great things happen to her.

magic4uwho is a great big kook, and what a lovable one she is! She is one of the friendliest people I know. She in genuinely interested in others, she wants to hear what they have to say and she wants to engage them. A true social butterfly, it’s damn near impossible not to like her.


My feelings for malifeo are similar to my feelings about jeiry. He and I have never interacted for any extended period of time, but when we have I’ve found him to be a very nice, friendly, and interesting person. But, again, I can’t give you anything more specific then that.

To be continued...

Re: question

[morrigirl.livejournal.com]

I like missingpoint. She’s an intelligent smart ass and I like that in a woman. But, I worry about her sometimes because she’s 21 and dealing with all the shit that 21 year olds deal with: the school and the stupid boys and the family drama, and as much as I would like to save her from the shit I went through during that time of my life, I know it’s not my place to.

I really miss mistressfox. We were pretty good friends back at Knox, and I’m sad that she never updates her LJ or communicates with me via email or AIM anymore. It’s like she (and her beau who I am also very fond of,) have dropped off the face of the earth. I miss her confidence, capability, and snarkiness.

There is nothing I can say about nabuchodonosor that she doesn’t already know or that I haven’t said a bazillion times before. I heart her with great emphasis on “heart.” We have shared so many sad, silly, stupid, and satisfying moments over the years. Not only is she smart she is also the best writer I know and I envy her talent. She is my evil twin, my partner in crime, the only person in my life who I honestly think would help me hide a body. I don’t know how I ever got along without her.

ninquark is HOT. He’s also very sensitive, imaginative, inquisitive, and open-minded. He makes me feel giddy whenever he open his mouth, picks up a pen, or so much as posts a comment to my journal. He is definitely the most swoon worthy person on my friends list.

It has been a long time since nocash last wrote in his LJ and even longer since I last saw him in person. I remember him as being pretty cool and fun to talk to, but that’s about it. We were never close, more acquaintances than friends. So, I don’t have any strong feelings for him one way or the other.

palejewel is made of loveliness. She is so gentle, considerate, nurturing, beautiful, and forgiving. She’s got a gorgeous soul. I love reading her journal, and I’ve loved the rare times we’ve written each other or spoken on AIM. I think she is just incredibly cool and would be an awesome friend to have in real life.

I didn’t know question_curl very well in college, but I love reading her journal. She has quite a way with words, not to mention a deliciously fun take on the world in general.

I have said it before and I’m sure I will say it about a thousand more times before I die: risaypaz is love incarnate. Really, she is. She loves everyone. You have to be a really freaking horrible person for her not to like you. She is always warm and friendly and welcoming. She can look past your flaws and see the good human being you are underneath. And she doesn’t just want to know a lot of people, she wants everyone to become her best friend. She is seriously interested in getting to know every person she meets on a deep, intimate level. She is all silliness, hugs, poetry, and passion. I love her just as much as she loves me.

sacheverell was one of the first people over on SCN to openly admit to being a fan of my journal. That was really flattering since I loved reading hers. Though I wish I actually had the chance to speak to her more, she’s still a hip chick.

[morrigirl.livejournal.com]

The satinalien I know is perky, friendly, creative, and hard working. She’s got a smile and a hug for everyone, and is an all around sweet person.

silent_t is like a sister to me. I swear, the Universe made a mistake by putting us in separate wombs. I’m convinced we were supposed to come as a pair. She was born only two weeks after me, we were both born pre-mature, and we both came out backwards and jaundiced. What are the odds? We have been through so much together. There have been times when her presence in my life was the only thing keeping me afloat. She is incredibly humorous, talented, and strong. She has given me nothing but unconditional love and support and I will offer her the same until the day I die.

sioux_zee is yet another funny, talented young woman. (I seem to know a lot of those.) What I like most about having her around is knowing there is someone on my friends list who can relate to my screwy health issues. It is so comforting to have someone around who really gets it, you know?

I still run hot and cold on skoriaan. On the rare occasion that we are in contact, through email or MySpace or AIM, I usually enjoy speaking with him. We always have fun discussing BSG. But, I still have days when I get peeved that he has the gall to be happy. Then again, I feel that way about all the people I’ve been involved with at one time or another so it’s not really unique to him. I wish we could talk more. Seems like whenever he’s in the mood to talk to me I’m not available and when I want to talk to him he’s not available.

slinkybetty is all kinds of cool. Not only is she a really hard working musician, but she always looks awesome. She is incredibly stylish and really classy. I’d like to get to know her better, and I probably will since we’re gonna try and get together after work some time next week.

spiltvinegar is another hard working lass. I’ve always been amazed at how focused she is. She is always juggling a gazillion projects and somehow manages to stay on top of all of them. She seems to know what she wants and where she’s going, and given the fact that I can’t even decide what I want for lunch today, I find that pretty darn impressive.

Easily the most swoon worthy woman on my friends list, starstealingirl is made of pure hot sexiness. I don’t think I know any girls who are as hot as she is. Not only is she total physical perfection, she’s also ridiculously intelligent, the kind of intelligent that makes you feel both excited and intimidated. She’s also incredibly sweet, goofy, and cute as can be. She is what is what we call “the full package.”

undying_rose17 is goofy, dorky, friendly, and nice. One of her best qualities is her open-mindedness. She is always willing to listen and weigh new information against her own belief system. She’s a thinker and I can’t get enough of thinkers. I think if we were ever to meet in real life we’d probably end up skipping down the sidewalk singing show tunes.

I haven’t had much contact with zombie_dog since our little dalliance ended several years back. And…I’ve had a hard time with that because I thought I’d made a friend and these days I’m not sure if I actually did.

Okay Anonymous poster, are you happy now? I have spent two days cranking out paragraphs about every person on my friends list, paragraphs that most of them won’t even read because posts that are more than a few hours old drop off everyone’s radar pretty fast. But I still wrote them all because you asked me to. You’re going to hell for making me do this, you know that right?

Oh and BTW, IP logging is back on bitches!
