I nabbed this from jenavira and I would appreciate it if you all would respond. For we are all Friends, here. You can even tell me something I already know.

To wit:

I know very little about some of the people on my friends' list. Some people I know relatively well. I read your fic, or we have something else in common and we chat occasionally. Some of you I hardly know at all. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and I thank you.

But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...she likes spinach."

I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal.

ETA: my mood, because elke_tanzer asked so nicely, is now appropriately quixotic.

i can read french. i overdosed on flinestones vitamins when i was five. i don't understand why the sky is pink when it snows and that terrifies me. i like flip-flops and fairy tales, alliteration, and things in threes. and you're my long lost older sister.

The sky's pink because the light's diffuse for the clouds. The yellow of the sun gets refracted pink because of the...stuff...in the atmosphere. Same as a sunset.

Now, why light refracts, why we see color, and why the sun is yellow to begin with -- I can't answer these questions and they make my head hurt.

I like all the other things you like. And I just sent my girl Sputnik to read your S&tC Miranda vignettes. So.

Whereas I can tell you all about why we see color; but it involves lots of long words and the properties of ions and me having been a molecular neurobiologist for four years, so you'd probably prefer it if I keep my mouth shut.
