Looking for new connections

[beetiger]

If you would be so kind...

Introduce me to someone on LiveJournal who isn't on my friends list, but whom you think I should get to know better, or whom you are surprised that I haven't already connected with.

Just letting me know a journal name would be fine. Letting me know *why* we'd be interested in getting to know each other, even better. And dropping over to their journal and letting them know I'm coming? Well, that would be the best.

On the flip side? If you added me a while ago and are finding me to be less interesting than you thought I might be, this would be a good time to go ahead and drop me off of your list, no offense, no questions asked. Thanks!

vozeatscake doesn't post nearly enough, but you two could be sisters: artists and moms with adorable, precocious wee ones!

Hey, that's the Fishcakes lady! Coolio.

Pal janejellyroll is a former coworker of mine. She's got that whole hippie thing down. :) She supervises a team at my old workplace. She's sort of the Dharma to my Greg.

eisa and nex0s Both lead interesting lives, both live in the City and so might be fun people to visit or meet up with. I’m pretty sure you met eisa once, when we went to a restaurant a few blocks from her place.

Haven't known her very long. She is currently at a babywearing conference. She has two kids a widely varying ages, She is open to alternative spiritualities, and is into filk (which is how I actually met her).

rain_luong, creator of Ozy and Millie, is pretty cool and I think the two of you are on the same wavelength on a lot of things.

soopageek has one of the most interesting journals I've ever read. He's a trucker and takes pictures of all kinds of pretty/neat/wonderful things he sees on the road...and has excellent taste in music. And his girlfriend welfy is one of the cutest things ever. :)

And if you want a fun community, howtheylooknow is awesome.

I don't know how to do the little user icon thing... but moonshadowtiger is my sister. She's into Rocky Horror, World of Warcraft, and generally ragging on how bad her day was, or how stupid boys are... which I don't blame her at times. :D

So, umm... there you are!

melanie You both post fragrance critiques, ;) (she makes soap), you both have home-based businesses, and you're both really cool. How's that? :)

No one really springs to mind. Usually, I can't predict how two pwople will get along. And in the rare cases where I get a clue, I connect them as fast as I can.

But I love lots of my friends list, so a couple of interesting people might be hmm mamallama is an artist, uppity/stubborn/fights for her self-identity, mother, art teacher, and wife. She lets a lot everyone's innate humanity show in her journal, and not just the angsty bits. HilaryPoet is also a lovely read. She's excellent clergy and I love her poetry. Her husband reminds me a lot of some of how I imagine Bard might be.

shes not really on livejournal anymore, but she started feeds for the journals she keeps on her websites :)

shanmonster: Dancer, crafter, martial artist, poi-spinner
lupabitch: Pagan writer in the Pacific NW
shadesong: Prolific writer in Atlanta (soon Boston), plus she's cute naked (and not naked, too, for that matter!)

[ladyperegrine.livejournal.com]

lupabitch sounds interesting--do you think she'd mind if I friended her too?

[featheredfrog.livejournal.com]

I couldn't say, although she writes her blog for others to read. Good stuff.

[beetiger.livejournal.com]

Heh. I read shadesong for a while, but the internet celebrity/actual interesting posting/ likelihood of getting to know me as anymore that a fan, despite us having some mutual friends ratio was waaaay off.

[ladyperegrine.livejournal.com]

wapsi - Hmm...she's queer, liberal, open-minded, compassionate, and just generally a neat person.

[cktraveler.livejournal.com]

willowing. She's an incredible nature photographer, and sometimes I swear she is literally an angel fallen out of heaven.

One person I've learned a lot from is ozarque. She's another writer, with an interest in linguistics. (She's a former professor of linguistics.)

If you remember the "Gentle Art of Verbal Self-Defense" books in the 1980's, she was the author.

Hi. You recently posted in one of my friend's journals and I thought I recognized you from another friend's posts. Checking your profile, I found that your friends list overlaps with 3 different circles of my friends.

So given the nature of this post, I thought I might ask to friend you. :)

[beetiger.livejournal.com]

Sure, c'mon in!

[tn-grrl.livejournal.com]

Coolness! :)
