Date: 2007-04-25 10:05 pm (UTC)Wow, that’s a good question and one that requires some reflecting on. Of course my first thought was to blend the two – I’m most comfortable with people who I have a connection with and who I’ve known a long time. But since that wasn’t one of the options, I might lean towards casual acquaintances I’ve known for a long time. For some reason (I’m really boring perhaps?) I like familiarity.
2. Sex - If you could repeat your entire life from age 5 on, with all your knowledge and experience intact and usable, would you lose your virginity earlier or later?
I’d say no change here. It was fine the way it was.
3. Music - What's the best concert you've ever seen?
I’ve been a B-52’s fanatic since I was 16 years old, and the first time I saw them – in 1989 – really blew me away. I was just awed. It was so weird for me to see them live after watching their videos and listening to their music so much. (I’m like, “They exist! In real life and not just on the TV!”)
4. Drugs - Describe your first real hangover, if you've had one.
I hardly ever drink now and have never done drugs. But I was hungover, just once. In college, two of my friends (Margaret and Natalie) and I decided to get drunk, just to experience it. We were all drinking virgins. We approached our drinking orgy in a very cautious and well-planned manner; we arranged to sleep in Natalie’s dorm room so none of us would have to drive drunk. We even planned it on a night when Natalie’s roommate wasn’t there so there’d be another bed. So we drank and drank, Margaret threw up, at some point I landed on Natalie’s bed and slept really well. I had a headache the next day and pondered whether it was really all worth it.
5. Love - Do you believe in love at first sight?
I’m lean in the direction of saying no
6. Livejournal - How many times a day do you check your comments?
More times than I care to admit. And now that I’m on sabbatical, it’s even worse. I need a life.

Date: 2007-04-26 01:54 pm (UTC)That's very interesting! Perhaps society needs more older women-younger men combinations? (But then again, if men do mature later than women, maybe that's not a good idea. Maybe our bodies and our minds just aren't in synch).

Date: 2007-04-25 10:12 pm (UTC)1. ok in a other universe firefly never got canceled. You see one episode where Zoe and Saffron are friends? how do you rationalize this?
Joss was drunk when he approved the script? Zoe's turned to the dark side?
2. Is there something about you partner that others may consider nonsexual but it turns you on?
Hmmmm....She's so quirky and cute that it makes me melt inside and often get turned on.
3. What's a song that make you said almost to the point of tears and why does it affect you this way?
The last song that made me cry is from Les Miserables. It's one of the last songs when Cosette rushes in to see her dying father one last time. It made me cry as I thought of my friend Michelle and wished I could've been there in person when she breathed her last.
4. ever have a bad reaction to medicine?
No. But years ago one of my (now deceased) cats had her ears turn pink when we gave her something (vet-approved). She was ok though; it was actually kinda cute.
5. What was the funniest memory you and Doris share?
Ah, yes. I'll share it but it's rated R. :-) Once we were gettin' ready to get it on. I started to undress her. Then I thought how cool it'd be if I lit candles. So I stopped in the middle of what I was doing and lit a candle. She was like, 'What the heck? How'd you like it if I stopped undressing you and did something else?' She lifted my shirt over my head, left it there over my face, and lit a candle. We both fell down laughing. I couldn't stop, had tears going down my face.
6. Who got you to join here? and if it was a person, are they still on your f-list?
It was actually a fandom - Jem! There wasn't enough of a Jem-presence in other venues but I found that a lot of Jem fans had LJs. So here I am.

Date: 2007-04-26 01:02 am (UTC)3. Music - What's the first group/artist/etc. you ever got into?
Duran Duran. I was 9 when I fell for them. The funny thing is that I actually *picked* them to like, because I thought they were cute. 24 years later, I love their music (and don't care what they look like).
4. Drugs - If there were no consequences, health or legally, would you ever try any drugs? Why or why not?
I think maybe no. I guess because I don't see the point. Or I don't want to be out of control or disconnected with reality.
6. Livejournal - What are your least favorite parts of the "LJ experience?"
There are several times when LJ just stopped sending me notices when someone commented, for no reason. Then magically they'd again start sending me notices. Then stop. Then start. All the while I was doing nothing to change either my LJ settings or my email settings. Wtf? Fortunately for the past several months LJ has been sending me the notices.

2. Sex: If you know any languages other than English, how do you say "have an orgasm" in that language? What do you think that says, if anything, about their culture? If you DO NOT know a language other than english (or heck just answer both if you want) have you ever had sex with someone you didn't like?
I studied Russian but never learned enough to answer the first part of your question. So....the answer to the second part is no. At least, I never had sex with anyone I didn't like at the time. Many years after we broke up, my first girlfriend, Katrina, looked me up. We got together for coffee and I realized that I didn't like her at all. But at the time we were a couple, I liked her. Usually.
3. Music: Is there a song or band or album that really takes you back to a particular time and place? Which/when?
Hmmmm....You know, the other day I was listening to a tribute CD to the Cars. Listening to the Cars' old songs brought me back to high school and made me feel uncomfortable and just...down.
4. Drugs: do you think some drugs should be legalized? Or all? Why or why not?
This is one issue where I should honestly say that I haven't studied the different sides/different arguments well enough to form an opinion. Pretty shocking as I have opinions on most every other political/social issue. But I need to learn more to form an opinion on this.
5. Love: Do you have any brothers or sisters? what are they like?
I have one sister. She's great! We get along well and like each other. She lives 3 hours away and we only see each other a handful of times a year though.
6. Livejournal: what would you like to see MORE of on your flist--a certain kind of fic, more of a certain fandom/pairing/meta/other?
More Firefly in general! More discussions of characters, plots, themes, etc in Firefly. I do enjoy hearing of my f-lists' personal lives - just wish they'd toss in more FF too.

Date: 2007-04-26 08:38 pm (UTC)I even keep lists of FF conversation-starters for me to eventually post and hope people want to chat about. We need to discuss it to help us make sure we don't ever forget it!

Date: 2007-04-27 07:17 am (UTC)1. Friends: do you think often about friends you once knew but haven't seen or talked to in a long time?
2. Sex: have you ever done something sexually that you would be too embarassed to tell me about (you don't have to say what it is if the answer is yes)?
3. Music: you mentioned that listening to the cars made you feel down. are there any bands/songs you listened to when we were in high school that make you feel good now? do you feel that you are more, less, or about the same into music now as you were in high school?
4. Drugs: if you were driving, and a friend asked if s/he could smoke pot in your car while you drove, what would you say?
5. Love: are there any romantic movies that remind you of your relationship with doris?
6. Livejournal: write a poem about lj. ;)

Date: 2007-04-27 11:43 am (UTC)Yes, definitely. You know friendships mean a great deal to me. So I do often think of those I was once friends with but aren't anymore. Sometimes I wonder if I have too many of those, too many friendships that I or the other person shouldn't have let slide.
2. Sex: have you ever done something sexually that you would be too embarassed to tell me about (you don't have to say what it is if the answer is yes)?
Hmmmm....Too embarrassed to tell *you*? No, probably not. I've definitely done thing I'm embarrassed by but given how I pretty much tell you everything, the answer is no.
3. Music: you mentioned that listening to the cars made you feel down. are there any bands/songs you listened to when we were in high school that make you feel good now? do you feel that you are more, less, or about the same into music now as you were in high school?
I still feel good when I hear the B-52's or Blondie or DD. I'm not sure why the Cars specifically make me feel down but their music always does now. I'd say I'm into the same *type* of music, pretty much though there are a few artists I like now who I hadn't heard of in high school (Kate Bush, No Doubt, um....is that it?)
4. Drugs: if you were driving, and a friend asked if s/he could smoke pot in your car while you drove, what would you say?
No, sorry, but no smoking in here
5. Love: are there any romantic movies that remind you of your relationship with doris?
I can't think of any, but that song "All I Ask of You" in Phantom (which technically *was* made into a movie) reminds me of our relationship. In the slim chance we ever have a wedding ceremony, I want to walk down the aisle to that song. It'd be a long walk though.
6. Livejournal: write a poem about lj. ;)
I'll leave the poetry to you. :)
