Say hello to a LJ newbie!

[sid]

A long-time RL friend of mine has just made her first post on LiveJournal.  Poor sucker thing doesn't know what she's let herself in for...

Please drop on over and give a warm welcome to shep0709

better her than me

She's not a slasher, but she's okay in spite of that.  *g*  She loves to read scifi, rent movies, run, drink red wine.  Doesn't watch TV these days, but she's seen the first three seasons of Stargate SG-1 (thanks to yours truly) and don't anyone dare spoil her for anything that comes later!  She's an atheist, and (as you will quickly see) a Packers fan, although I don't know if there's any correlation between those two things...

LOL. And she's practically a neighbor of yours!

Yes... yes, she is. So many lovely people living in this wonderful state. We should all have a par-tay!! Hee.

You TOTALLY should! :-D Excuse me. *takes off sweater* Hot flash. Goes along with our current heat WAVE. 61 degrees right now, 66 for a high tomorrow. 55 and falling on Thursday, snow overnight and high of 34 on Friday. You know. Seattle weather. ;-)

Seattle weather? I know not of which you speak.

*cranks up illegal heater under desk another notch*

heater under desk

YES! Also in Seattle, here!

I've had mine on all day and am still typing in my fingerless gloves!

Sorry! Exclamation point must be frozen down! *g*

*waves* Howdy neighbor!

Ya know, the office is warm when I arrive in the morning, but it's damned freezing by 10:00! All my cow-orkers are sitting in their little cubicles wearing their coats & scarves.

*warms hands by illegal heater under desk*

*giggles about frozen exclamation point*

*waves back*

Pleased to meetcha. (See, I can do periods...)

cow-orkers *snort*

I'm working at home, snowed in. Not complaining unless the power goes out. Well, not complaining very much. ;-D

So... I shouldn't mention that it's 78 here in muggy, sunnish Houston.

If it's any consolation, it's supposed to freeze Thursday night. It'll be the first freeze we've had on my side (south side) of town in a couple of years or so.

I have a friend in Houston - just talked to him on the phone Sunday, but we didn't talk about the weather. *g* He's going to be in Chicago over Christmas and New Year's and I hope to get to see him on my way to or from Wisconsin. It definitely won't be anywhere near 78 degrees.

I actually met him thru the younger sister of shep0709, coincidentally! She's a flautist, and he's a pianist and was assigned to accompany her when she played at a contest in Denton a couple of years back.

Small world, isn't it? hsapiens and I are planning to try and meet up as soon as we can both find a spare hour. Looks like we live within about five miles of each other.

Of course, so do 100,000 other people. :-)

Let's see, Kenneth's zip code is 77006.

*g*

[juliabk.livejournal.com]

Oh, he's about 5 or 8 miles the other direction. :-) I like Montrose, but the schools I wanted were over here by Reliant. ;-)

Abuse of exclamation points....

There's this song that popped into my head, but I'm afraid there might be a riot if I referenced it. ;-)

Did you get nailed by Rita last year? I stayed home, so I at least escaped the horror that was the freeway.
