Punky's FRIENDZY FRIENDING FRENZY!!!

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!

Hello. I'm Jeff, 31, and I live in the Chicago area. I've been on LJ for almost 10 years. I post a few times per week on average. My posts tend to include different observations about myself and my life, and sometimes about current events. I'll also include thoughts on movies and TV shows I've watched, though I usually keep my mentions to a few times per movie/show. (For example, I won't give weekly thoughts on a TV show, but I might say something once or twice per season.)

Like a lot of people, I'm trying to figure out certain things in my life. After being in a stable job for a few years, I'm currently not working, so it has given me time to think about my habits and tendencies. As one of my friends said about me, I'm "on a journey" (though don't expect anything too profound). I don't talk about this too much, and I don't feel bad about not being employed, but I might occasionally have thoughts related to it that I share.

I like LJ friends who have something interesting to say. I like reading different perspectives on my friends page. One thing I like about LJ is that I can get to know people from around the world who I'd otherwise never get to meet. Or even people who live near me whose paths would never cross mine. I read everything my LJ friends post. I won't comment on every entry you post, but I will if I have something to say.

One of my main interests is music. I like to listen to and explore as much music as I can, so I try to listen to a lot of different kinds. Most of what I listen to probably falls into the alternative/indie rock category, though I also listen to country, classical, opera, jazz, classic rock, and more. This year, I'm really liking the new albums by Kacey Musgraves and Mikal Cronin.

I don't see that many movies at a theater, but I like to watch things that look interesting. I'm currently working my way through the list of the winners of the Oscar for Best Picture. I've skipped a few here and there, but I'm currently up to the '70s. I'd like to explore more, but I don't have the same sense of urgency with movies that I do with music.

When it comes to TV, I like to think that I don't watch that much, but I do. I have a lot of shows I'm catching up on, like Damages, Dexter, Fringe, The Good Wife, Breaking Bad, and a few more. I've been a fan of some of the Thursday night NBC comedies - 30 Rock, Parks and Rec, The Office - but also like some hour-long dramas, like Elementary, Downton Abbey, Nikita, Arrow, Nashville, and Revenge. I don't do much with reality TV, but I started watching Big Brother last year.

That's probably enough about me. :) Most, if not all, of my posts are friend-only, so it's fine if you want us to add each other on a "trial" basis (i.e., if you find that you don't like my posts, that's cool, no hard feelings). Otherwise, if you're interested, I look forward to getting to know you.
