From nimlothriel:

Some of you I hardly know at all, but you friended me and I thank you. But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...she wears mismatched socks." I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal...

Bonus points for wacky/sexy/TMI. ;)

Very random, probably TMI:

I once got drunk on Georgian champagne on an overnight sleeper train from Moscow to St. Petersburg. The champagne was great and ludicrously cheap but the hangover was a doosie and it took hours to find somewhere to buy bottled water. (Fans of Tchaikovsky/ The Music Lovers will know the water in St. Petersburg has a side order of typhoid).

I sat next to "Sir" Bob Geldof at the original LiveAid (very, very briefly).

I once grew cannabis in my greenhouse. Unfortunately a damp spell led to a slight fungal problem that screwed with the THC content - no biggie for me, like Bill C I can't inhale (though I don't get blown by interns).

When not co-located with partner, a "rabbit" (or two!) is a girl's best friend (though I admit that Teddy is better for snuggling).

I hope never to be mature enough to know better.

All those together make it sound like you lead a very exciting life indeed!

I hope never to be mature enough to know better.

Yay! Me too. :)

I'm not sure that I could deal with an exciting life. I've been lucky that I've been able to travel, though nowhere I'd consider really exotic - I'm working on it. Everybody has some special experience to talk about - it's all a matter of perspective; a refugee from Sudan or Pakistan would think that having a house with a washing machine or a trip to a supermarket phenomenally thrilling.
