Date: 2007-11-21 11:10 pm (UTC)2. Associate you with something: fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, etc: Baby blue, for some reason.
3. Tell you something I like about you: Your comics. They literally are a comic-blog, the slow bits of life, the fast bits of life. Very illuminating.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you: You and I talking about Nena's becoming a "Gallus" at the same time you told me you were one of the gallae.
5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you: Considering you ARE a moden Gallae, and I've recently been diving into the Culture of Rome for the new AWFW story, I've learns that Rome isn't the shining beacon of the ancient world it's often made out to be. If given a chance, would you go back as a gallae?

Human life before the late 19th century (which medicine was making real progress) tended to be nasty, brutish and short. The folk back then tended to be inured of such simply because there was not an alternative. Roman society worked mostly along the lines that Mafia does today - you
had patrons who did stuff for you but expected absolute loyalty in
return. If you weren't protected by a patron, religion or lord, you were fair game and likely to be conquered or made a slave.
If I went back as myself (rather than a "previous life") I would already be dead due to appendicitis age 7. If not, I'd be feared/pitied for having the "falling sickness", though as a Galli that might be accepted. It may be that if I had a time machine and could go back I might be either disappointed or very surprised. Either way, if I had that opportunity I WOULD GO!
Living there permanently, maybe. I've seen how communal trans living can go wrong, both recently and years ago when I stayed at a trans hostel in Sydney. I should expect that things haven't changed much over the years.
Mmmm, intriguing question.

3. Tell you something I like about you: You're evenhandedness. Your firm, but fair judging of issues.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you: Two Words. Marty Kombat.
5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you: You're one of the few people who remember when I was still "in the closet" as it were. You took my coming out in striade, but never told how you reacted when I told you....
6. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours:

3. Tell you something I like about you: You don't chide me for being American. And you don't chide me for being Texan, neither.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you: Being allowed to stay at your place during our trip to Vancouver, being told there's a surprise for me in the fridge, the hospitality of someone who wasn't even there, to someone she'd never met. It's kinda staggering when yuo think about it. Thank you.
5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you: Where do you find the time for those gorgeous models?!
6. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours:

Date: 2007-11-21 11:35 pm (UTC)You're very welcome. Just because we haven't met in meat-space doesn't mean we haven't met. There's just a little 'yet' stuck in there : )
While I don't chide you for being American or Texan, both conditions have a solution and I look forward to your 'cure' : )

Date: 2007-11-22 12:02 am (UTC)2. Associate you with something: fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, etc: Trains. Loads and loads of trains. And tracks. And cars. And everything about them.
3. Tell you something I like about you: You have a wicked sense of humour, It doesn't come out often, but when it does, it strikes like a cobra. "I wish my brother George was here...he'd know how to fly this plane."
4. Tell you a memory I have of you: ploughing into a low water crossing at 60MPH during a tornadic thunderstorm that we went through THREE TIMES.
5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you: Why me? Of all the people more deserving in the world, why me?
