"The first five people to respond to this post, will get some form of art, by me, about them. I make no guarantees about quality or type, but I will assure that I will give it good effort.

The only catch*, of course; as with most memes, if you sign up, you have to put this in your own journal as well.

Also, I'm leaving open the possibility of there being some sort of other clause, because it's now a binding contract between you and me to make art.

There could be penalties, fines and possible terms of imprisonment** for failing to keep up your end of this bargain."

My art will most likely be poetry, as my scanner is rather lousy at the moment and although the one at the library is ok...well, I can write a decent poem in a quarter of the time it will take me to make a piece of art, so...

Well, I promised claddagh812 to post her meme here, so I will:

Comment on this entry, and...

1. I’ll respond with something random about you.
2. I’ll challenge you to try something.
3. I’ll pick a color that I associate with you.
4. I’ll tell you something I like about you.
5. I’ll tell you my first/clearest memory of you.
6. I’ll tell you what animal you remind me of.
7. I’ll ask you something I’ve always wanted to ask you.
8. If I do this for you, you must post this on yours.

What she said about me, by the way, is:

1. I love your languages. I don't understand any of them besides English, but I love them anyway.
2. I challenge you to...write a BPAL haiku.
3. Rust.
4. I like that you seemed to jump right into the forum. That's the best way to get to know people on there and to get people to know you.
5. When you PM'ed me to buy some imps. I'm glad we were able to work out the payment -- sorry again about not accepting credit cards, but I just don't sell enough to justify the account expenses. :(
6. You remind me of an owl, just like another friend. You're both very owlish in my head but with different coloring.
7. How many languages do you speak?

And I replied:

2.
Oils of sweet perfume
Draw the world's weird and wondrous
To trade thoughts through space.

7. Russian and English fluently, French and Spanish communicably, and at one point or another I studied German, Japanese, Hebrew and Yiddish, and I can sorta figure out Italian, Ukrainian, and occasionally Polish, Serbian and Czech texts using the above.

Following up with a bit of my life,

You know you are sending too many packages when you have enough of a rapport with the postal clerk to greet her with, "Hello, it's Zip code [insert Zip code]." I joked that I will someday send a package to every state. I mentally counted them and I am a tenth of the way there.

I will write more, but first I HAVE to do some work so as to continue respecting myself.

Blogspot, I can't do this!

I have put down roots at http://thepointatinfinity.blogspot.com , I will not move from there to LiveJournal all of a sudden!

I mean, LiveJournal can turn pages, and it has a bigger community, but I just can't. My plans were to copy my sixty-six blogspot posts into LiveJournal...

No, my actual plans were to yield to Carrie's urging and follow Irene's advice and sell my imps faster on LiveJournal.

Ok, anyone want BPAL imps?
Sacred Whore of Babylon
Black Annis (2, one never opened!)
Sheol (sob sob but labdanum is just no go)


All are just about full. Will sell for $2.50 each US, plus the cost of shipping to where you are. I take Paypal but not on a credit card.

Please comment with your info if you are interested.

I wish you joy
