Ugh, introductions. I never know what to say about myself and it's especially odd coming back to livejournal after all these years. I feel like back in my lj 'prime' I would have just been like I'm a crazy Canadian who loves her dog and nerdy computer stuff! I suppose this is true but I'm no longer the 23 year old from those days. Oh my ( Read more... )

Oh gosh, I remember that. And I'm sorry for pointing it out; you were probably the first Canadian that I'd ever talked to. I live with a bunch of Canadians now and half the time people mistake me for being Canadian, too. <3

Tori! <3 No need to apologize! Whenever I come home from a long visit with Lacey my mom tells me I sound more American. Hehe, accents are funny things!

Welcome aboard! The best part of a horrible job that scared me out of office jobs for life was the co-workers all taking turns borrowing the IT guy's collection of Harry Potter books and then discussing them on our breaks. I was really upset that Ron's twin brothers were almost nonexistant in the movies; they were one of my favorite parts!

If there is one thing I've learned about being an American woman, it's that American women ARE awesome and you should talk about them all the time.

I remember when making icons was all the rage. It seems that died when Facebook got so huge. LJ slowly... faded. Glad you're back after all these years, then! Will you stick around?

one of the things I do like about lj is the anonymity or that people irl don't really read my lj.

I really liked working on lj layouts and the like as well. Am looking at this layout now and it's all glitchy because of how lj has changed. Perhaps I'll make some icons and fiddle with my layout, just like good old 2006!

I will definitely stick around. It's nice to have something like this as a way of getting to know people! (if that's how this works?)

I love you, Smarch. And I'm glad you're participating, even if you don't know what you're doing. :)

And even now that you're older and in recovery and learning to move on from what bugs you, I love that you still retain the qualities that made me like you so darned much in the first place. I can't pinpoint them exactly... just that you're a bit of a goober, like me. And that I can get nerdy about math with you.

I am a goober and it's really nice to be able to be like yep and that's totally fine rather than oh god i have to hide this with bravado!

Math is the best! And I love you too! *hugs*
