Friending Post

[mcmurphy79]

My LJ has gone a bit odd and it's a bit quiet. I know a couple of you are finding the same thing, so I thought I might attempt to make a public post and a sort of friending frenzy (this may or may not work especially as I am posting this on a Monday morning). So yeah, you know the drill. If you want friends feel free to make a comment telling us all about yourself and have a look through to see if there is anyone you think you might like to be friends with.

Can I ask that you make a post on your LJ and link to this (if you are so inclined)

I'll start

My LJ  friends describe me as follows

A lovely person with a good sense of humour and great personality. Her journal is easy to read and mcmurphy79 is also a regular commenter. Definately someone to add if you get the chance.

Tina writes with unflinching honesty about all aspects of her life. She is open, non-judgmental and supportive; and someone you won't regret adding to your friends list!
stpdsxyflndrs:
mcmurphy79 is ardently kind and fervently passionate about everything lucky enough to be in the scope of her life. She is fun, raw, honest, and open; she is beautiful without realizing the true extent of her radiance. Her posts make me laugh, cry, think, and reflect, and her comments are always comforting and understanding. I feel quite honored to know her, and if you add her, you will too!

My friends list wouldn't be the same without mcmurphy79. Funny, genuine and honest, she's someone I regard as a true friend

Hello, I'm a 29 year old female from Norway. I am currently doing my best to squash all feelings of pending doom/being one year away from 30, while squeezing all the fun I can out of my last year as a twenty-something. I work in the health care section (two different jobs in two different places), and when I'm not working I love reading, knitting or crocheting, writing, listening to music, hanging out with friends or watching movies/telly series. I also like cooking, but mostly because of the eating that follows the cooking. I also love to hang out with my friends, but I don't get to do it as often as I'd like.

I've been told I'm shy, but I tend to think of myself as quiet rather than shy. I'm not at all shy on the internet, though, and I value a good sense of humour, a bit of irony and sarcasm, and someone to discuss random things with:)

Mind if I add you? It sounds like we have some things in common. Btw, I think that is a common misinterpretation about shy people.. that you are shy, but in reality you are just quiet or like to speak when you have something to say, not for the purpose of talking. I'm a bit like that too. :)

[fluttering-by.livejournal.com]

Not at all! :) I've added you back now.

Some who call me shy have known me since I was little, when it was true - I was painfully shy. But people change over the years, though some of my friends fail to see this. But those who befriend me now probably see me as quiet rather than shy.

Mind if I add you? I think we have quite a few hobbies/interests in common :)

[fluttering-by.livejournal.com]

Of course not! I'll add you back:)

I was wondering if you'd still be up for a new LJ friend? We have similar interests, apart from the fact that I can't knit but I'd love to learn at some point :) Also, the shy/quiet part, I'm the same. I'd rather think of myself as quiet than shy.

[fluttering-by.livejournal.com]

Certainly! I'll add you right away:)
