If they find the bodies in the basement

Because [livejournal.com profile] grailquestion gave me one of the most beautiful quotations I have ever heard:

If you leave comment requesting a quick analysis, then I will respond to you about the following . . .

1. I'll respond with something random I like about you.
2. I'll tell you what song/movie reminds me of you.
3. I'll name something we should do together.
4. I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me (or just me).
5. I'll tell you my first/clearest memory of you.
6. I'll leave you a quote that is somehow appropriate to you.
7. I'll ask you something that I've always wondered about you.
8. If I do this for you, you must can post this on your journal so you can do the same for other people.

It's that #8 that's the kicker.

I love people telling me about me. So, go for it :)

Sounds good. But I don't promise to do #8 on my journal, though I will reciprocally.

I usually ignore these things. But from you... I must know.

All right, I'm shaking up the magic 8-ball...

If I could do the eighth elsewhere?

I'll be curious what you'll come up with for me. I always wonder what people remember about me.

[identity profile] fleurdelis28.livejournal.com 2006-04-16 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes! (Though again, I can't guarantee #8.)

That was very lovely!
Now it's only fair that I do this for you:

1. I like catching glimpses of your inner soundtrack; you're always singing or humming a song.
2. This Ascension's Mysterium
3. Definitely admire the criminally cute Audrey, who now has a collection of eccentric little hats knit by her mother...
4. "Tell them I am young and beautiful!"
5. After Luis and I had shared some of our experiences with the class, I remember saying that we chose to live our lives through these metaphors.
Everyone looked a bit lost, except for you. You had this enormous grin and were nodding your head.
6. "Tem que gostar de poesia, de madrugada, de pássaro, de sol, da lua, do canto, dos ventos e das canções da brisa." -From Vinicius de Moraes' poem "Procura-se um amigo" (Looking for a friend): "Must like poetry, late nights, birds, the sun, the moon, singing, the winds, and the breeze's songs."
7. When are you going to learn Portuguese??

PS- According to family lore, James Joyce was related to my grandfather. No satisfactory evidence of this has been produced, so it might be some mighty Irish blarney...but I am glad we are original enough not to claim ties to Brian Boru, like the rest of the island!!!
