Likewise!

I lived in Stanhope, NJ for about 3 years. Now I'm in Chapel Hill. :)

I was in southampton once- a short trip to do a presentation. I wish I could have stayed longer. It was beautiful! I totally get you on wanting to go there in the winter time. I'm from Wisconsin and we are probably nearly as cold lol. a good mild, rainy Ireland is preferred over several feet of snow! We are going to Ireland for a two week visit this fall and I cannot wait :)

My husband worked construction while living in Ireland and that industry completely tanked. There's no way we could have stayed in 2011. I have my masters but Ireland has a completely ridiculous law regarding background checks so my ability to find work would be challenging at best. In a nutshell, in order to work with 'vulnerable populations' in Ireland, you need to have lived there for FIVE YEARS before they can do a complete background check so you can work with said individuals. um... I work in human services so I would have to essentially live in Ireland for 5 years before I could even apply for a job in my field. I called the guarda about it and everything. I wouldn't be able to handle doing completely unsatisfying work for 5 years of my life if we moved back.

I miss it every day... but with few job prospects and a low income, we would not be able to do handle it :(

I'm not a baby hater :) My daughter is 18 months old and we are hoping to conceive again soon.

I also love that you are currently living in Mexico. I have been there a few times and loved it!

Added if you don't mind!

Chapel Hill is one of the places I'd like to end up, however I'm going to start out in Fayetteville. :) They have a teaching shortage where New Jersey has a teacher overage!

I'm also trying to lose a lot of weight... I would be happy with an 85 lb. weight loss! I could never do the kind of running you are though.

Scrapbooking DOES take a lot of patience. I am so.far.behind in all of the scrapbooking I would like to do. the kids keep getting bigger, I keep taking pictures and scrapbooking isn't getting done LOL!

Anywho, I added you. Add me back if you like! :)

I'm not quite sure what a friendtzy is either but I'm doing it was well.

Like your intro, wish to be friends?

Hi! I'm Caitlin. 24, from New Jersey, mostly I write about writing and job hunting and fibromyalgia (and whatever else is going on at any given time). Mind if I add you?

[identity profile] magentadawned.livejournal.com 2013-07-27 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
I love photos, am left wing with slightly surreal sense of humour BUT I am FIGHTING depression, I do not constantly complain. Up to you if you add. (I really love phtography)

I've had a couple of friends on my journal that have had some severe mental health issues that they really weren't actively trying to get better with. Sooo... if you're fighting something that's one thing, if you've laid down and accepted your fate that's another. I'll add you!

[identity profile] oneworldvision.livejournal.com 2013-07-27 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Mind if I add you? I'm an amateur writer and would-be film critic. And I can't type on a smartphone either.

Hi! We seem to have a fair bit in common--I'm a writer, bisexual, dealing with fibro (and other recently-discovered unpleasantness), with an interest in books and social justice.

Mind if I add you?

[identity profile] oneworldvision.livejournal.com 2013-07-27 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
I've seen you around TQC, right? Mind if I add you?

Re: I wear plaid shirts a lot.

[identity profile] barrelofrain.livejournal.com 2013-07-27 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, let's!

[identity profile] oneworldvision.livejournal.com 2013-07-27 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
Hi! I'm here by way of [livejournal.com profile] newfriends, and I've never actually participated in a friending meme before, so. Let's see how this goes.

My name is Caitlin, I'm 24 and currently living at home in Jersey. I've been on LJ since high school, so if you go back far enough you'll find some endlessly embarrassing entries that I'm too lazy to go back and make private. I tend to write about my daily life, which more recently has revolved around my ongoing medical issues (fibromyalgia and related funtimes), my job hunt, and my dog. He's an awesome dog. The best dog, actually.

I don't get into fandom very much. When I do it tends to be one at a time, and they tend to be... not so very popular, as far as fandoms go. So it rarely comes up in my journal. Right now I'm super into Law & Order. If you want to geek out over a 20-year-old procedural, I'm your girl. If not, no big.

I love movies, especially classic Hollywood films. I stayed an extra year at college to get a second degree in radio/tv/film (my first was in writing arts), and I really miss studying film.

Oh, I'm also bisexual, liberal, and a feminist, so you know, standard disclaimers apply. I'm not really interested in reading about religion (after 13 years of Catholic school I'm still burned out), non-stop fandom stuff, drama for drama's sake, or reposts from Twitter or elsewhere. Other than that, if you think we'd get along, let me know and I'll be glad to add you.

Great! Added. :)

[identity profile] dreamchaser.livejournal.com 2013-07-27 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
I'm adding you - I love Big Bang Theory and Elin Hilderbrand books, too! I actually just discovered her books as well, and I'm on a mission to read all of them, too.

Re: I love these!

[identity profile] dreamchaser.livejournal.com 2013-07-27 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
I'm adding you (I'm one of those who almost always thinks of eleventy billion things after the fact, too!).

I'm Lyssa, I live in Houston, Texas, I moved here a year ago, but I grew up in New Jersey and I'm a Pre-K teacher. I'm also a graduate student, I'm started grad in 2 weeks.

I'm rather nerdy. I love board games and card games like Magic the Gathering and I love shows like Doctor Who, Torchwood, Farscape, Andromeda, Stargate, Eureka, and Firefly.

I also love comic book movies like X-men, Ironman, Thor, Avengers, Batman, etc.

I like people. I like people who post. I like people who comment. I'm very good at checking journals. I don't really care who befriends me, as long as you're not a stalker from real life. My journal is a RL journal though, I don't really fangirl in it. I talk about work, fiancee, sex, wedding planning, crazy kitties, and random vacations that I like to plan.

I got engaged about 2 months ago, and I'm getting married on 3.1415 because my fiancee is a math nerd. And we're working on planning a very nerdy wedding. Think 20 sided engraved dice as favors, book-themed tables, and a Diablo II shaped wedding cake with a tardis as a cake topper.

I have two cats [and want more] and consider myself a crazy cat lady. Their names are Sorin and Anjani after MtG planeswalkers.

I love to read. I read almost anything. I also really like glittery lave lamps. If I was in Harry Potter, I think I'd be sorted into Ravenclaw [with a secondary house of slytherin].

And I guess that sums it up.

Hello, everyone! I'm Christa.

I'm here to start over, start my journal up again and meet new friends. What I'd really like is to meet some like-minded people who are fairly active. Who knows? Maybe we'll get to be pretty good friends.

Librarian by day, aspiring writer by night, my life is surrounded by books and literature of all kinds. In my spare time I can be found sitting outside with my nose in a book or a camera in my hands. I adore nature photography, and occasionally I'll post some of my photos here as well.

I'm a bit of a geek. I love video games; currently I'm playing through Darksiders and The Last of Us (both amazing by the way). Nothing will beat Alice: Madness Returns and the Portal games, though. I'm also a fan of too many TV shows to name. But to list a few: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Supernatural, Firefly, Breaking Bad, Dexter, Chuck, Once Upon A Time, The Mentalist, Criminal Minds, Dead Like Me, Big Bang Theory, etc.

I adore horror movies, but I'm also admittedly a fan of cheesy romantic comedies, too. Disney movies? Heck yes! And don't even get me started on books; I have far too many favourites.

Anyways, don't be afraid to hit me up. I look forward to meeting you all :)
