kass_rants and I'm participating mostly because I've not done a proper update in an age:
You know how sometimes people on your friendslist post about stuff going on in their life, and all of a sudden you think "Wait a minute? Since when were they working THERE? Since when were they dating HIM/HER? Since when?" And then you wonder how you could have missed all that seemingly pretty standard information, but somehow you feel too ashamed to ask for clarification because it seems like info you should already know? It happens to all of us sometimes.
Please copy the topics below, erase my answers and put yours in their place, and then post it in your journal! Please elaborate on the questions that would benefit from elaboration. One-Word-Answers seldom help anyone out.
NAME: A. Non (don't use my real name here; if you know me in person, you know my real name)
AGE: 36
LOCATION: DC 'burbs
OCCUPATION: Communications Information Specialist (I help people find stuff on the web). I contract to the government.
PARTNER(s): the venerable D., married August 1997
KIDS: None
BROTHERS/SISTERS: 1 sister, J.
PARENTS: Dad died 2005 (almost exactly 4 years today, in fact :( ), Mom
PETS: Cats/makers of bread Kisia, Russian Blue princess and tardis cat, Spice, the vicious predator and sewing assistant/stretching coach
LIST THE 3-5 BIGGEST THINGS GOING ON IN YOUR LIFE
#1 I fence. A lot. Fencing is exercise, a "laboratory" of sorts for mental/emotional discipline, and my primary social outlet of late.
#2 Battling winter lethargy and passive in-a-rut-edness to get out more, reconnect with old friends and make new ones
#3 We want to buy a house in the next year. Planning is in the embryonic stage but this has the potential to affect time/finances/everything.
#4 Trying to get more organized because there's so much I want to do/see/read so much yet I manage to waste lots of time and misplace tools I need. To these ends, I'm trying to spend less time online, make lists and stop slacking.
