Getting to know you meme

[mythteller]

The problem with LJ or Facebook: we all think we are so close, but really, we know nothing about each other. So ask me something you want to know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about. Ask away. Then post this in your LJ/Facebook and find out what people don't know about you.

(dagnabbit... LJ timed out, so I have to retype it all!)

There are still so many things I want to do that I've never tried, so it's difficult to pick one. I haven't traveled the world nearly enough and would love to return to Ireland, if only not to relive the shell/culture shock I went through the first time.

But that's too easy... the one thing I still have on my todo list is to learn sign language. It's such a beautiful language and I would love to study it to learn more than just the alphabet.

As for the pagan thing, it's funny that you ask because I just had my pagan-life story published in a book!

But the short version is I dated a Wiccan girl for a couple of months and she lent me a few of her books. I spent many years reading what I could, then decided to go out and meet these wacky people in person, which has led to where I am today: a community busy-body.

As for you, what question could I ask you that would stir the most trouble? What do you miss most about Montreal and what unfinished business did you leave behind? *grin*

Lmao. I am going to have to answer this carefully so I don't get anyone hunting me down to kill me!

I think I can honestly say I miss everything about Montreal. Of all the place I've been and lived in, Montreal was, at times, the most traumatic for me (with crazy roommates!!!) but also the place where I was most myself. I loved the wintery cold -- the feeling of my nostrils freezing. I loved walking along the streets late at night in the snow to go see a film by myself. I loved the shopping, and dressing a way I enjoyed. I loved my dance classes. I loved the smell of sandalwood in that wiccan shop (for the life of me, can't recall it!) I loved the valiant attempts you and Sarah made to pull me into your group, and would have loved in many ways to stay and properly get into larping, and storytelling.

As for unfinished business, I think I left quite a bit behind *raised eyebrow & smile*. I could have easily stayed and made a whole different life. I left that confidence, and happiness just *being* behind, which is a shame. Montreal is an easy place to love.

I think, in the times I see me leaving this place, I can easily see myself returning to Montreal. Of course, the only problem would be finding a job.

And there, ha! Minefield safely maneuvered!

Impressive dancing Ms. Astaire! *grin*

I'm a bad man.
