Welcome to my new friends!
I have to ask a favor from all of you (yes even the friends I've had for a while now)
I have a hard time keeping track of more than a couple people, especially when I've come in at the middle of your stories. I would really like if you'd each send me a short summary of who you are, age, who you live with, what you're currently doing that you journal a lot about, any important people you mention a lot in your journal, etc. I'll do the same, in a journal entry, as soon as I can. It just helps if I have some background to picture when I read your entries. Thanks, and I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you better :)

hi there! I'm a new friend, from the creepy friending post. Okay lets see.
I'm Amy, I'm 21, I live with my mother(until summer. I'll probably just call her mom), my fiance(Ian), Our two dogs (Sebastian and Nova), and our two cats (Sophie and Smeagol). I don't update my journal often, when I do it's usually short stories, often of the creepy variety, but I might start journaling more about every day stuff, which will probably be work, weight loss and maybe anxiety struggles. I might also blog for a while about moving, and the weird thing in our house the dogs bark at. I also like to journal about interesting dreams when I have them.

Thanks!
When are you getting married?

To be honest we're not entirely sure, haha. Some days we want to wait and save up, others we're ready to jump the gun and head to the court house!

Mlle. Kitty, self-referenced in the third person as K*KO when overtired. When I started my LJ in 2000, I was a twenty year old comp sci major in Missouri. Now I am a thirty year old government accountant in Nebraska. Other than that, not a lot has changed. I have the same hair and the same car ("Baby") and the same boyfriend ("the boy" or "dork butt"). Household otherwise includes two cats: Pushkin and Eugenia (Gigi). Notable mentions are Punkin and Biskit (best friends from high school) and Spook (sibling); anyone else is likely obvious by context. Hobbies include escapism through anime, novels of various ilk, and nail polish. Frequent topics are the same plus the freak show that is my workplace, +10 introversion, daddy issues, and middle-class white girl problems. Also headless robot cheetahs.

Hi, also from creepy friending. Carrollee, 39, married with a 4 year old son (Max), a husband (Dave), and a dog (Pierre). Baby Nick will be arriving in 7 weeks or so. I am in the process of getting a self-help book up on Amazon, which I haven't talked about much on here. Will be there this weekend and I'm sure I'll mention it. I write fiction primarily. I haven't been posting on livejournal much lately, but I read multiple times a day.
I am not published other than an article in Clues that I cowrote with my mom, but I do Nanowrimo each November and I will be self-publishing a book to be released on Election Day (fiction).
Most of my posts lately are about the new baby. Upcoming posts will definitely include nursery photos because I'm painting all the baby furniture black and I will have the nursery decorated this time, which I didn't for Max. I also want to get back into all my crafty stuff, like knitting and crocheting and painting and drawing, so hopefully more of that will show up as well in the upcoming months.

That's cool!
We kind of threw the nursery together for our son, because he was 3 weeks early. We did have kind of a theme, but it wasn't as cutesy as I hoped.
I admire you for writing. I keep trying to, and stopping. What kind of self help book are you doing? I'm all about the self help. :P

It is called "Change Your Life in Fifteen Minutes" and is about using mindful meditation (and mindfulness in general) to help yourself be happier and more successful. It's also kind of memoir-y.
I wanted to do this nursery theme for Max but my pregnancy really sucked so I didn't get it together. This time hasn't been a lot easier but feels a lot different, so I'm getting the nursery the way I want it.

Sounds good-let me know when it comes on amazon, I'll take a look.

Good luck with the nursery. I had a very uncomfortable pregnancy (but still better than a lot of people expected)
