What I like about you...

Taken from rufinia

Comment here with your name and I'll tell you something I adore (or at least mildly like) about you. Afterwards, copy and paste this into your own journal (but only if you really, really want to.)

Don't assume I have a clue, if I haven't used your name recently in a Live Journal post, don't assume I know who you are, I'm clueless.

You know ME!

Hi Baby

You don't have to do this for me, if you don't want to. Some stuff is harder to say in public.

don't assume I know who you are

Just in case it isn't apparent, I'm Heather/Caitriona. I am cleverly disguised under my real name. I didn't want you to think some random crack-head was leaving you comments, though.

I love that you smoke as much crack I do! :)

OK... seriously - I love that you go and research and recreate an era with support, but mostly on your own. You don't have a gang of noble Romans nearby pushing you into it, and only you know how hard it was to learn what you learn. I empathize and realize the bonuses and minuses to being the one and only in a social set.

I also love that you still find time and take interest in learning other stuff - doing both lots o'Roman and bunches of other stuff is terrific feat.

You know I love you snookums. :)

I should be able to find something I can say in public. :P

I like that you boldy state your opinion and stand by it with minimal concern and consideration to how other people are going to react. You're not concerned with other people jumping on your bandwagon, you're much more concerned with you, yourself, being on the bandwagon you feel is "right", even if you're standing there all alone.

It takes a lot of guts to do that.

:) Yes, I did manage to figure it out, but thanks for clarifying. :)

I like that you try to do stuff, even when you believe it'll be really hard, and even when you're really scared of failing. I think you don't realize all the stuff you can do, and with practice will do really well. Anyone who tries to climb the really tall mountain stands a really good chance of phenomenal successes.

Have faith in yourself.

Thank you.

That's what Spenser and Susan (two fictional characters whom you don't read, but mermaidlady and I do) refer to as 'rightness of self' -- probably quoting someone else. It's a quality I admire very stongly, but which I don't often feel like I exhibit.

I'm glad to hear that you think I have it.

3 n's in this name, but easy to figure out who i am

[lakshmi-amman.livejournal.com]

Well... the easy one is, I love your drumming! :)

But also I love that you came and joined us. That you took the time and energy to come and be our drummer, and consistently follow through on your word and come and drum wonderfully for us.

Thank you.

[mermaidlady]

Me!

I adore your loyalty. It may take a while to get to know you, but once you have made a friend, you not only keep them a very long time, but you really stand by them. I really admire that.
