Special Anniversary Meme

[the_other_sandy]

My LJ is five years old today! In honor of the occasion, here's a special state of the LJ meme:

# Number of journal entries: 976 (including this one)

# Number of people on your friends list: 55

# Person who introduced you to LJ: viridian5, although it took me something like 8 years to get one after she did

# Still friends with this person: As much as you can be friends with someone you've never met in RL ;-)

# How many people have you introduced to LJ: 1 ::waves at bit_boy:: Not that he ever posts to it

# List everyone on your friends list who you have met in person: agt_spooky, ant3ka, asyouleft, awfulhorrid, bit_boy, bookwurm, gonturan, jennetj, kb9vcn, kroki_refur, loves_bitch, oxbastetxo, queeberquabbler, samazon13, seesmooshrun, smallwaldo, thefannishwaldo, wilde_moon, wraithfodder, and zazreil

# Total LJers met: 20 (technically 19, since 2 of these people are the same person)

# 5 people on LiveJournal that you have known the longest: I'm only going with 3, since they tend to blow away the competition. I've known bookwurm for about 28 years, kb9vcn for about 23 years, and bit_boy for about 19 years or so

# Anyone on LJ you can't stand: Not at the moment

# Name one person on your friends list you would most like to meet: Probably viridian5 because she's the person I've known the longest online without ever having met

# Ever ban someone from commenting in your journal: Just spammers

# Number of comments: Posted: 3,968 / Received: 3,697

# Biggest pet peeve about LJ: The way they periodically take away a useful feature that works to replace it with a useless feature that no one wants, then insult the users for not falling all over themselves in gratitude

# Do you feel close to most of the people on your friends list: Yes, mostly because I've met about 1/3 of my flist in person

# How many journals on LiveJournal do you have: Just this one

# Communities I currently own/maintain: None, although I do maintain the Hawaii Five-0 page over at newbieguide

I feel special!

You should!

I've known bookwurm for about 28 years

Wow, has it really been that long? Time flies when you're having fun! (I'm not sure how to explain the rest of it though.)

I don't feel like I'm old enough to have known someone for 28 years, but there you have it.

Yeah, there was a part of me that thought, "She couldn't have known me for 28 years! That would mean that, when we met, I was.... Oh, um, yeah. Never mind."
