[punkymcmunky]

Hello everyone. We all know how a friendzy works.

Reply with a comment telling us all about yourself and what you look for in LJ friends and post a link to this friendzy on your own journal. Spread the word!

I will leave this entry public until August 22, 2013.

I will comment with my own info!

Re: I love these!

Awww thank you so much!! Sure I'll add you back dear :o)

[touchofgr3y.livejournal.com]

Of course! I was actually meaning to come back on and respond to your blurb (I naturally decided to read the post 5 minutes before work today, lol). Adding!

[touchofgr3y.livejournal.com]

Adding you :)

[tigersinacage.livejournal.com]

Adding you!

[changeofthemoon.livejournal.com]

hah! I know, I've been meaning to actually add people from this thread for a few days now. Also, my journal is unusually melodramatic right now because I keep failing my driving test. I promise it's normally not like that!

[changeofthemoon.livejournal.com]

Just added you back!

[tatjna.livejournal.com]

I had a quick look at your blog and would like to read more. Adding you now. ;-)

We got some common interests. Add?

[zimon66]

I like anime! Once my insane work schedule calms down, going to catch-up on Attack on Titan and Blood Lad. There's a couple other new summer series streaming I want to take a look at.

Poke around a bit in your LJ. Want to give friending a try?

[ecosopher.livejournal.com]

Aw, stop. You're making me blush :D

[ecosopher.livejournal.com]

Yay! I agree, I read your profile and thought, yes, I can see us getting along just fine :D

[ecosopher.livejournal.com]

You probably saw already, I added you back :) I LOVE YOUR OWL. So awesome.

Nice! There are a lot of good shows out this season - I'm a little sad that there's only a couple of more serious ones, because I like to have a balance if I can, but it's great news for comedy anime fans. :)

Nicole, 31, usually ENTP, but results except that "E" tend to vary.

Here's some stuff about me:
- I'm 100% Jersey, but currently living in Austin, TX.
- I've never had a normal grownup job. I've given market research surveys in the mall, been in charge of a pony ride (which also involved llamas and a fairly cranky zebra/donkey hybrid) and sold handcrafted leather boots at renaissance faires around the country, and done some other stuff that I talk about in locked entries but not other people's public comments. ;)

- I'm about to start a "developer bootcamp," where I'll spend 10 weeks learning a few coding languages and pretty much not doing anything else, then come out with a grownup job.
- Angry feminist, but not radical feminist. Sex and sex-work positive.

- I like kids but don't want any. I will have cats again, though. I love cats. My roommate-to-be (we move in a week) has a cat. Her name is Truck.

- My natural hair color is blue. My follicles don't agree, but whatever. Fuck them. (Although lately, I'm rocking some purple tips while I grow everything out to start over.)

- I manage a local punk rock band, composed of my ex boyfriend (we broke up before he started the band, but have remained BFFs) and a few of our buddies.

Mostly, I post (1-3 times a week) about day to day life. Shows the band played, dudes I hook up with, anxiety about "adulting" and my impending life transitions, occasional drinking and/or drug use, how excited I am to have roommates that cook so I don't have to, and whatever else. I'm pretty upbeat in general and a lot of funny shit happens in my life. Or maybe my telling of it later on eljay is the funny part; I've been told by a few people that my LJ is the only reason they still log in here. My actual existence seems sort of mundane to me, but that could be just because I'm used to it.

Given that, I particularly enjoy reading about other people's weird lives. If your personal narrative involves pictures of you and/or your kids getting up to things that others might deem ridiculous, if you like YELL-TALKING, if you often hear from friends that you're funny when you're mad, if you've ever deliberately been homeless or a sex worker, if you have a job that most people don't even know exists, we should be friends.

I read LJ almost every day, and comment whenever I have something to say. The latter is all I ask of my LJ friends. I've had really mixed results with friendzies in the past. I'm looking for people I can connect with by reading and commenting on each other's stuff, i.e. make real friendships. I've made some really great meatspace friends from 11 years of LJ, and would like to keep doing so. I'm not really looking to read fanfic or extreme fandom stuff, reposts of tweets, poetry, and so on (I have quite enjoyed a few peoples' LJ Idol stuff, though).

I'm 33, female, and live in Arizona with my partner and our cats. We don't have children and I am less and less interested in having children the older I get.

I'm an attorney, but mostly I loathe law and work in a very touchy-feely area of it. I'm vegan but substantially less interested in telling anyone about it than I was in my younger years.

I'm interested in crafty things (mainly sewing), houses (mainly mid-century), and cooking. I was very gothy in my youth but old age and a professional career have gotten rid of most of that for me.

I'm interested in all sorts of people with all sorts of interests, but I skew pretty lefty, and don't have a ton of interest in things like spiritual awakenings.

Let's be friends! I need more grownups in my life who remember being weirdos. ;)

My intro is right above yours and probably explains the above statement.

[terminal-ennui.livejournal.com]

It sure does! Added you!

[inspireshine.livejournal.com]

Sure, why not?

[i-llbedammned.livejournal.com]

Sure! I will add you back!

[terminal-ennui.livejournal.com]

I am interested in houses, weather, and fiber things! Add?

[damnitnicole]

Me!

Also, thanks for hosting the rad internet party. :D

Re: A little late to the party, but better late than never.

I'd like to be friends! My thread is here:

http://punkymcmunky.livejournal.com/311016.html?thread=1991912#t1991912

but my alt journal (bringing_words) is friends with your alt journal, so it's like we're already friends ;) Or parts of us are friends?

[terminal-ennui.livejournal.com]

Interests include reading and crafting- mainly sewing, but some embroidery. Friends?
