Light angst and light updates

[misscam]

Chapter five of Nocturne is up. Legolas tells Thranduil about Gimli and there is angsting.

Speaking of angst - Camilla has a cold. There is much woe and self-pity and sticking of tissues up the nose. She promises to return to her normal, angry-at-Bush-and-curious-about-the-world-while-ogling-hot-men self as soon as the germs bugger off.

Meanwhile, you can advantage of Cam's fever sick brain and lure the truth out of her. Meme spotted at shiplizard. Leave a comment with your name if you want to know what I really think of you, and I'll reply and tell you. No lies, all honesty.

You can do the same in your LJ, of course.

Comments

Am I first? Am I first? Please tell me I'm first!!! Somehow you still manage to be remarkably sarcastic even while dealing with germs? How do you do it? Good girl! Please go back to normal soon though. I need more snide Bushie comments. As for the meme and what you think of me? Meep! Let's leave that to another time you're sick..

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Germs only make my sarcastic self angrier, it doesn't shut it up. But it does drain of strength to hiss at the Shrub.

Being a chicken, eh? Bak, bak.:P

[bjam1402.livejournal.com]

Hmm... What do you think of me?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Ah, Miss Bjam. Well, when we do chat, you strike me as a bit shy or possibly reserved. You angst now and then as teenagers do, but you do seem to have good sense in that mind of yours, which makes me be very hopeful for the young adult you will turn into. As for now, I do feel the age difference is a bit of a hinder for us to ever get really comfortable with each other.

[the-indy.livejournal.com]

What the heck, why not? Am curious to see what you think. =P

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Ah, one of my fellow survivors of a certain Queen. I do rather feel like we went through a war together and come together to compare battle scars.

That said, I wasn't always comfortable with everything you did during those days (nor with what I did, for that matter) and I feel sometimes you get too involved in an idea and don't let go. I also find you funny, capable of laughing at yourself and easy to talk to, even if we seem to have drifted a bit apart since the heydays of tiger growling.

Hello Marcus and your badgers.

You share one of my all-time highest sci-fi loves, but alas, the wrong pairing. But I forgive you anyway, because I like you. I'm not always that interested in your various LJ entries as I feel they don't relate to me and too much lyrics or poems tend to make me skim with haste. And I'm not too fond of your LJ colour. But you're nice and have yet to try to make me 'see the light' or in other ways bug me. even if we share different world views. Thus you're agreeably likable.

*puts Nocturne on her long list of things to read when she can finally smack herself out of her procrastination habit*

Hmm... ah, what the heck, I'm bored and boredom makes me meme-crazy. The name's Niki then.

And I hope you feel better soon... colds suck. *sends soft tissues and Swiss chocolate for when you feel best like eating it*

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Let's see then, fellow cat-lover.

You're a rambler, for good and ill. It can be too much sometimes, but there is something good-natured about your ways. We haven't known each other that long, so I've yet to really fix an opinion of you, but it's generally a feeling of goodwill. I don't think we'll ever be the closest of friends, but we'd get along reasonably well.

[beautyid.livejournal.com]

What do you think of me? o_o'

[misscam.livejournal.com]

O Canadian!

I'm afraid I hideously tend to confuse you with other PPC people. But when my memory does not fail me, I tend to picture you with Bjam. You seem to angst over teenage troubles as she does and I do occasionally want to smack you lightly with a herring. But you can snark and you sometimes post Sarah McLachlan lyrics (my teenage companion), which occasionally makes me think of you as a young me.

[krazykat.livejournal.com]

Do you mean to say that the honorable Miss Cam cannot be angry at Bush while sick? I do hope that you feel better; colds are never fun.
*send some eucalyptus to help with the stuffy nose*

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Alas, no. I need energy to hiss as the Shrub and while sick I need to conserve it for vital things suck as managing to crawl downstairs when hunger sets.

[hellga.livejournal.com]

Considering how much I respect your mocking of badfic and idiots (aka Mr. Bush & Co) I would love to hear your opinion of me, if you have one :)

[misscam.livejournal.com]

What doesn't Miss Cam have an opinion on?

Hmmm. I'm not sure how well we actually know each other. We sort of wander in the same circles, but I don't think we've spoken that much mano a mano. You seem a sensible and well-adjusted person, share my Bush hate and seem to prefer silver to gold just as I do. I tend to skim your memes and am not that terribly interested in pharmacy, but your posts on writing tend to make me pause and read (even if I happen to disagree). And recently, what happened in Beslan made me feel a great deal of pity for you, your countrymen and those directly affected. (That doesn't change the fact that I feel the Russian government has done its share of nastiness in the whole Chechnya mess.)

[norwegianne.livejournal.com]

Oh, dear... a cold...

I had one a couple of days ago. Colds suck.

I would leave my name... except that I'm kind of afraid of the answer...

Okay.... Anne, aka. norwegianne.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Heh, I see I inspired another icon. *steals for when she gets more icon space*

Jaha, kjære landskvinne... You're one of the few Norwegians I know online and thus get all my Norway jokes, which in itself is enough to get you liked. You're also studying to be a librarian, which my mum is. You like Nemi and Bush-mocking, which is all good. I'm not as interested in Buffy as you are and thus can get bored if you ramble on about that too much and I can't belive you're going to danishfy Norwegian. Hmpf. Traitor. But aside from that, it's all happy feelings, O Second-in-command. And anyway, us Norwegians must stick together. Especially when we're evil and brunettes.

[reia.livejournal.com]

Oh man, I hope I don't regret this... I'm Ara, what do you think of me?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Hmmm. Well, you're Republican and Christian, so I'm not sure we'd be friends in Real Life, as we'd probably be busy hissing at each other from opposite camps on various issues. But online we can concentrate on what we do agree on, such as good fanfiction, the sacrelige it is to split up Faramir and Eowyn, ogling All Blacks in rain and the general evilness of Sues. So really, while your opinions occasionally annoy me (as I'm sure mine do as well sometimes), but you are in the sphere of "aquitances I do rather like". And your cat icon is priceless.

[perepip.livejournal.com]

Hallo, Rosie Took here, Minion #37, maiden name Gamgee (don't ask).

Well, fire away. I've put on my flame-retardant clothes so I'll survive if anything bad comes my way. ^_^

And I hope you get better soon. *sends lots of cuddly blankets and pictures of hot men*

[misscam.livejournal.com]

hmm. You're a tricky one. I don't really feel I know you and you're one of the people I feel is more here for the OFUM stuff than the actual me, if you get what I mean. We don't seem to have that much in common otherwise and there is a slight age difference. You're one of the people when expressing opinions I do bite my tongue on as my first instinct is to get into some messy debate (I'm opinionated, which doesn't take long to figure out). But you're nice and seem to have a sense of humour, so I don't dislike you or anything, I just don't know you that well or think I ever will.

[visp.livejournal.com]

Meh, why not. And if you must know, my name is Molly.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Hello Molly.

You're really another one of the people who are in the same circle as me and we bump into each other without ever having been on terribly intimate terms. We share a lot of opinions and seem to have the same disdain for Bush and you're one of the people who do actually post about various happenings in the news in your LJ, which I also do and enjoy reading about more than the various happenings of a hyper mind. I don't think we've ever clashed on anything, but we haven't really bonded that much either. I say we're destined to be aquintances until (or if) we drift out of each other's online spheres.

[psychicsaphie.livejournal.com]

{poiks}

[misscam.livejournal.com]

You're like a little sister to me. We've shared a bit of drama, which although has made me sometimes be angry with you, has also meant there has been bonding. I do feel you seek guidance from me sometimes, possibly because of the age difference. You're fairly smart and will grow up to be a sensible adult, I'm fairly sure. Sometimes you do get too wrapped up in ideas and perhaps don't always see the consequences. But I do like you, all in all and that, as you know, is considered a compliment coming from a Norwegian.

[megaera-1.livejournal.com]

The name is Emma.

And colds suck. I have one now, and therefore feel your pain.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

G'day, miss Aussie.

We have actually talked now and then, I think, and you do bring back fond memories of Australia with your various LJ entries (ah, Rove...), but I do get the sense you're a bit younger than me sometimes. Sometimes you post stuff that interests me, sometimes not. You like Love Actually and hate BadFic and really, I've never had any reason to dislike you and thus I tend to have feelings of goodwill towards you.

Colds do indeed suck. But flus are worse. I remember the Aussie flus.

[shandydann]

Carrot and corriander soup is good for a cold. I find its even better than chicken soup.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Carrot? First I've heard of that, but there seems to be many, many remedies for colds out in the wide world. I think most of them work because people believe they will work, you know?

[j0llipops.livejournal.com]

I have to admit...I've been lying to everyone. My name's not Jo. I'm Rachael. But I /do/answer to Jo, honestly. (Now, O Blunt One, what do you think of me?)

You really should try the hot lemonade, it works wonders. And it's awfully bloody tasty.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Blunt, me? You hurt my feelings.

Let's see then miss-not-really-Jo. Well, we do manage to get along despite our various different standings in life and even toss mock-insults at each other without it getting nasty. We seem to read and watch alot of the same stuff and thus have stuff to chat about that will not lead to whale lobbing each other(unless we want to). You do tend to wander offline for periods of time and thus contact have been somewhat erratic at times, but you are one of the people I do genuinly enjoy having a conversation with. And that, let me tell you, is not always the case with all those who chat to me.

[nymeria.livejournal.com]

Duuuuuude? "Kaltia", funkette. Or Funkerina?

*Wanders off to argue the grammar behind the word "funk".

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I take that as you wanting my opinion of you, Miss-Bush-and-Blair-doer.

We've had some serious mind-scarring conversations on AIM, but they've usually been great fun. You're a Brit and thus have grown up with British humour as I have. When we chat, I tend to forget you're actually seven years younger than me or so, which is a great accomplishment. We read a lot a lot of the same stuff and seem to orbit the same planets of opinions on many issues. I wish I had been as sensible and funny when I was your age. Alas, I was not.

[belegcuthalion.livejournal.com]

I don't think we don't know each other well enough to ask for your opinion about me, but anyhow... feel better soon! *sends Vicks, japanese peppermint oil and a sturdy german masseur*

[misscam.livejournal.com]

We haven't really known each other that long, no. But the initial prognosis is good. And it is very nice to have Europeans around among so many Americans (no offence to Americans, but you don't get all the Eurovision jokes).

Sturdy German masseur, hmm? Male one? I accept. For my health, of course. No other reason at all. Nu-up.

[ekwy.livejournal.com]

Poor Cam... I know exactly what you're going through. I am still dealing with the aftermaths of a particulary nasty cold. *hits germs and sends you virtual medicine and many well-wishes*

With that said, and slightly nervous, I present you with my name: Josefin. I'd really much like to know what you think about me.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I expect you would, you Swedish nemesis :P

*scratches head* We haven't know each other that long, but Scandinavian Sisterhood does unite. You feel like my online neighbour - we sometimes argue about whose lawn is the prettier, but we will unite against all the other not-as-great neighbourhoods. And you like Animaniacs. We don't share every interest, but we have enough in common to get along, except for when we're fighting the good 'ole Norway vs Sweden fight.

[madziuda.livejournal.com]

Jumping on the bandwagon - any opinion of me, Miss Cam?

Re: meme

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Ah, another European.

Let's see - you've been around my LJ a bit longer than many of these young grasshoppers, but I'm not sure how well we know each other. You do seem to have an active Real Life and sometimes post the kind of angsting entries I'm not terribly fond of. On the other hand, you don't commit the evils of random, hyper postings. I find your English and writing very impressive from what I know first-hand of the pains of English-as-a-second-language. You're the kind of person I think I would like if I knew better, but that really hasn't happened.

[nirix5.livejournal.com]

My name is Feather, and I would like to know what you think of me, if you're well enough to tell me. Incidentally, feel better. My remedy for colds and such is: 1. drink a gallon of orange juice. 2. make ramen and add worchestershire sauce and chili powder.

Cure ya or kill ya, as my dad says. :)

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Hmm, you.

I seem to recall you going back a while on the OFUM list, though I could be wrong (my memory for names is terrible). We share a shipping interest in common (G/S! Whee) and you seem pretty smart and together, but I think we really only have conversations about interests in common and don't know each other too well. But you do strike me as the kind of person that would probably me in my circle of acquintances if we'd gone to same Uni. (And hey, I have a Bishop of Trondheim on my mother's side waaaaaay back, so we both have bishops in the family.)

[sasja-sokolov.livejournal.com]

I'll bite. So what do you think of me? ;)

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Ah, my musical friend.

Well, as you know, I'm not one for great study of music (I know what I like and listen to, but I tend not to think much about it or write about it) which means my brain has a tendency to simply skip some of your LJ entries. And you hate a movie I adore. Tsk. But you're fun to mock-insult, you don't seem to take yourself too seriously and I find you good-natured. I don't know if we have enough in common to be particulary close friends, but I think we get along well enough.

[puredeadthingy.livejournal.com]

Maybe the germs just want to do some work before the election? Bad explanation..
What do you think of me?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I sometimes confuse you with undeadgoat because you both have 'dead' in your name and my brain is horrid about names. You're fairly young and remind me of an age I'd rather forget and you do post a lot about things that doesn't really interest me, but you don't annoy me or use much netspeak. Most of our interest in common seem to be fandom related, so I'm not sure how well we'd get along outside that sphere. But then, hard to say yet as you're still in dreaded teenageland. Ask me again in a few years ;)

[jakie-f.livejournal.com]

I'm a masochist, it's the only explanation.

What do you think of me, really?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Your icon is decidedly weird. But not unsurprisingly, as you are a morbid one. Luckily for you, I like that in a person. But you seem way too cynical to be so young. When you're my age, you'll be a bitter old fandom hag. We'll get along great. Aside from that, you do sometimes amuse me, sometimes I'm not that interested in various RL happenings of yours and mostly we're really fandom buddies.

[the-factionlair.livejournal.com]

Do I want to know what you think?

Oh well, too late now, I've replied.

Anyways, I hope you get better soon, colds are evil.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

You're mostly a stranger to me. We have really bumped into each other through fandom and I've yet to discover just how much in common we have outside that (so far I gather there's Bush disliking). My opinion of you is still on hold, if that makes any sense. But you could do with less exclamation marks sometimes.
