Ok, because if
gileswench jumped off a cliff, I would of course have to do likewise:
A meme. (I still don't know from where the word "meme" is derived, btw, though I get the meaning from context, I think. Feel free to weigh in with that info, if you know. I'll pretty much believe anything.)
Respond with a comment and I will:
1) Tell you why I friended you.
2) Associate you with a song/movie.
3) Tell a random fact about you.
4) Tell my first memory of you.
5) Associate you with an animal/fruit.
6) Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
7) In return, you MUST spread this disease in your LJ.
In other news-- none on the work front. I just stay in my quiet little cube and try not to piss anyone off. Is working well so far. I did have a very surreal dream last night in which I sat both my bosses down and gave them a stern talking to and told them to play nicely with each other. A plague on both their houses, I say.

Date: 2007-03-15 01:08 am (UTC)1)I friended you--probably because of a comment in a friend's journal or because I started reading "To Grandmother's House." Not clear which. It's been fairly recently, though.
2) Verdi Requiem, Dies Irae. You know, just when you're getting all comfortable and cozy and then-- wham! Bass drum and trumpets jolt you out of your seat.
3)You know what the subjunctive is, and you're not afraid to use it.
4)first memory? Things are a little hazy just now. I know I started a Raising in the Sun a number of times, but not having internet access at home made it hard to navigate back to the site and figure out what chapter I was on. I like your vision of Spike and your AU where a relationship between these characters can make sense and be reasonably healthy.
5) a badger. no idea why. Just like the way it sounds.
6) someone alluded to the fact that you write non-fanfic-- real stuff too. what kind? (Feel free not to give particulars if you don't want-- a generic answer would satisfy my idle curiosity too.)

Date: 2007-03-15 04:26 am (UTC)Technically speaking, in the sense that I received money for words, I've written non-fanfic - I used to churn out weekly adventure serials for the company newsletters of a play-by-mail gaming company. But I've never published anything otherwise. I know several other fic writers who have - anaross and lordshiva and Herself and Nan Dibble - but I ain't one of them. Maybe someday, if I ever get inspired.
