So where *did* I find all of you?
Coming from a request by heathabear...
How about... the origins of the people on your flist?
So that got me thinking, where *did* I find all of you? ;) Broadly speaking, my friends' list comes from four places: television, LJ Support, BookCrossing and travelling...
Joule came in very handy for looking back, although the Jan '05 re-set makes some of it unclear...
I'm far too lazy to make these all into LJ-Cuts....
a_thing_sublime - television: ER specifically. Many many moons ago.
aivilo_18 - television; svuf
ajina - mmm, ages ago. I don't think Joule is right here. I think it might have been the expats comm from when I was in Japan
angrychicken - LJSupport. One of those who lives closest to me, yet we've never managed to meet
beginning - another support crazy who lives quite close. I wave (and dodge a flipper whack) when I drive on CT's crazy highways.
breigh - ER but long before LJ. We'd known one another in ficdom for many moons. Wish I knew where you were these days
caliban22170 - SVUF; forever known as sponge
cestovatela - travel/Japan - not sure exactly where we met--eikaiwa, maybe?
chipb0i - *waves* *tackles* how long have you been on SKList?
deslea - yep, another Support nut. One who, despite living on the other side of the world, I've been lucky enough to meet on several occasions.
ellienonikki - *waves* I miss lunch in the standby room. Japan Round 2 :)
emmavescence - according to joule, one of my very first LJ friends (oddly enough, I was defriended before I was friended)... that's an odd bug :)
evilgiddy - er/svu/csi:ny but really more interaction outside of LJ
evilgiraffe - ER - forever, even before LJ from the days of Em just mentioning you as "Trig" :)
heathabear - *pokes* hiya. Yeah we basically just had this discussion in your journal. Since the days of emergency...and then you made a pretty background :)
hintgiver - hiya! Another Japan Round 2 partner in crime
intravox - Japan :) Round 1 ! Never will forget the look on your face when I walked in that night I came back. and we;ve done about as well at keeping up
itcouldbelove - :) another 'relic' - December 02 I think. If I weren't lazy I could find our first comment.
karinalyssa - BookCrossing/BookRelay
kielisyl - 2ndary journal
kissekat - ok I need to know from Chip when he joined the list but I think you 'win' on account of longevity hands down. 1996 IRC #abs-k
lovepollution - you know, I don't know. ER maybe? Either way, many moons.
maryschwimmer - another 'relic' the ER crew lasts a long time :)
matcha_pocky - Japan Round 1! Did I intro you to LJ or vice versa?
mavey - Japan Round 2
mirp - BookCrossing/BookRelay
mortaine - another long time LJ Support friend :)
moska_v - hi Sis!
mousie962 - SVU which led to ER, I think? Definitely Melrose :)
phil99 - LJ Support, many moons ago...
pussreboots - BookCrossing/BookRelay
ratkrycek - LJ Support/Deslea's comments :) Lucky enough to meet several times
sabavana - BookCrossing
scarletts_awry - mmmm... stellaluna's comments? I know through CSI:NY but I don't know how we met.
shopgirl_ny - SVU, many moons ago.
skyring - BookCrossing and *technically* Japan :)
sooozie1982 - svuf
spyglass_ - oh *so* long ago. ER, I think. I can't tell how far back because I can't remember your old screen name :(
stellaluna_ - CSI:NY but I don't remember how I found your journal.... I think moska probably linked me to you.
sunneyone - TV:All ? I don't know which it started with but it included Crossing Jordan, Third Watch, nearly everything on TLC....
sweetgingertea - SVUF
tenshisama - LJSupport... and then we kind of lost track of one another and re-connected when we both realized the other was in Japan.
tqd - BookCrossing
trelana - another longtime LJSupport person
trigeekgirl - ummm.... I don't know. Oh wait, I do. My woodstock icon!
viajes - Spain; ITC
wombles - BookCrossing
woosang - BookCrossing
Ouch, my hands hurt!
What makes me smile is how far removed from some of these places I am, yet I've managed to keep in touch with all of you :) Especially LJ Support people. I did this off my mutual friends and then realized I'd gone through a letter and missed someone, only to realize I'd been de-friended. Shows how much attention I pay :o
It would be an interesting comparison if I did this for skinglist's friends...
Still finishing a post re: this weekend's trip...
