Bandwagon-leaping!

Let's give it a go. Anon comments on, IP logging off, tell me anything, try and avoid distinctive personal typos.

We seem to be done; anon comments off again.

Fuck. I am a moron.

I've done that too. Fortunately I have an IBM Model M keyboard that is more than able to withstand me beating my forehead on it.

Well for what it's worth it's true (but it was a long time ago). And I can spell 'pursue', I was trying to be anonymous. :-p

There was only a chunk of '97 where I was un-taken, anyway. The current situation's quite unusual.

Hey, no fair. When we don't know who *or* what, it shouldn't be tantalising :)

Why am I always like a 15-year-old boy around girls I like?

Nervousness. There's one person in particular I can't manage my usual merry banter with, which is frustrating.

(Anonymous) 2007-01-10 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Who?

(Anonymous) 2007-01-10 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
This is what I want to know!

And it may be nerves. It also feels like they are a foriegn species sometimes, even though I am one myself...

I'm not sure being one yourself helps. Female friends of mine who are that way inclined all seem to have difficulty...

I've always said that I would rather have my eyes plucked out by a rabid crow than ever embark upon a long distance relationship, but in the last week I have been seriously considering one. Despite the long distance involved being, in fact, international.

Well, I embarked on one, and spent most of a decade being very happy. It can work.

(Anonymous) 2007-01-10 05:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Now that is interesting (and reassuring) to know.

[identity profile] damerell.livejournal.com 2007-01-10 05:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, just to be clear, after six months or so we converted it to a short distance relationship.

A friend of mine has got the best setup here; he got into one, but his job permits him to accept a 2-year posting in California...

No

I miss you, Davey! :(

[identity profile] damerell.livejournal.com 2007-01-10 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
No more trips to Atlanta for me...

[identity profile] tacohime.livejournal.com 2007-01-10 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Aw, Davey. Probably none for me, either.

Last night, we watched the feature film Crank with Jason Statham. I have decided that the lead character, Chev Chelios, was modeled after you.

Yes - still waiting for tickets to arrive, mind.

I found out I have a terminal disease right before the new year and that I am going to live less than five years. I do not want to tell my family and friends about it because they would be very sad and upset for a long time. They would treat me different too and I do not want that.

[identity profile] damerell.livejournal.com 2007-01-11 05:48 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm very sorry to hear that.

David,

When I am v stressed I have many of the symptoms of schizophrenia but I seem to be coping without telling anyone thru relaxation and shit. I worry about the drugs u see. But its frightening.

If I accidentally reveal who I am please delete this comment, David. I know that geeks can do all kinds of clever crap & I really don't want people to know.

I know I'm going to be being Captain Obvious here, but talked to a doctor about it?

I don't think I have anything I want to say anonymously. It's almost a null transaction because it's only got words in it, it leaves out all the context. Am I being too egotistical? Are you one of the worst people I can think of to be asking that question? Would you have anything to say to a request for anonymous comments?

[identity profile] damerell.livejournal.com 2007-01-11 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I think I know who you are.

I rarely have anything to say anonymously, no - in three of these lately, I've said nothing twice and something trivial once - which makes me curious about what people will do with it.

I'm having an existential crisis and I don't have enough money to get supplies!

(Supplies=Stolichnaya, Kaluha, Half & half).

Bonus: I miss seeing your posts, so I was glad to see this one.

That ought to hold me for about five minutes! :)

I am hamstrung by dyspeptic Hobbesian misanthropy. Where is the beauty?

IRC?

(Anonymous) 2007-01-14 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you only IRC when you're drunk?
Or does IRCing make you drink?

Re: IRC?

[identity profile] damerell.livejournal.com 2007-01-17 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I infer you mean afp IRC. I used to use that, normally, if Wednesday had gone away and I felt strange and lonely. Naturally, that's not an issue anymore.
