ATTF: friending time.  
Greetings, best bar on earth!!  Man I have missed this place. This time of year is always so crazy-busy, and there's always so much to get done that it seems to fly by in a kind of haze (I know I've pretty much been doing my own zombie walk just trying to make it through, and a huge shoutout to Bob for some much needed fic therapy; it's totally keeping my ass sane right now.)

But how goes it, y'all? [livejournal.com profile] shenshen77and I were talking the other day and she had mentioned that we hadn't had a good old-fashioned friending meme in a while, and I thought that sounded like a dandy idea. I also think we need a good impromptu dance party and a chance to chat and hang out with old friends and make new ones and just be our awesome selves.

So please come by and introduce yourself. Say a few words about how you found this place or this ship and what your interests are. Check out other people's comments. Feel free to stalk them (in a non-creepy and completely respectful way) and comment crash-- hell, this place was built on comment-crashing (you think I'm kidding but I'm not.) There is no form to fill out becuase I'm allergic to forms. Free jazz all the way, bb. ;)

ETA on the introductions: no need to go into detail on the personal stuff. share as much as you feel comfortable with. i always like being a little cautious on that front, this being the internets and all. <3

Pics, gifs, randomness, chitchat, melarkly, and general bedlam are always encouraged. I've missed you guys. <3

ALSO-- I'm posting a sign-up sheet in the comments for future ATTF posts. We have had some amazing guest hosts and I thank each and every one of you. Y'all are constantly raising the level of discourse (and squee) around here and it's awesome. So for anyone thinking about signing up-- don't be a stranger, m'kay?

Oh, I forget -- I also have a Hawkeye action figures (complete with fire escape -- yay!!! it features in two of my stories ...), two Tom Parises (one mutated, the other not), and two Andorians. All on the mantle piece, as they should be.

I really need more action figures. Mostly I collect fandom-related board games.

My friends are shameless enablers when it comes to action figures. The problem with the Hawkeye one is that the box had SUCH a fab picture on it that I couldn't bring myself to throw it out. It's still cluttering up my house somewhere ...

Oh, and the Andorians are because of a story I wrote, called "The Andorian Incident." Just in case you were wondering! ;-)

Andorians are awesome, no explanation necessary. :)

I guess I just have expensive taste. I tend to save my money and then buy a board game, which can be pretty pricy. I just invested in Doctor Who monopoly (my 7th fandom-related monopoly), which I'm super excited about.

Hon, I own some action figures myself, all of the graphic novel that my username originated from, so probably no one here will know them, but action figures rock :D
