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?

Dude, that soooo counts! Because meeting you was awesome and your stories are awesome and I had some Glühwein and ... ;)

And this: So, that's kind of it for me, for "friendship" Friday. Except, yeah, I love Jeremy Renner's acting. Seriously. (And, okay, those arms. I have a thing about arms, from my fencing days.)

I have to agree wholeheartedly! I fell in love with his acting and then rather suddenly I realised that he is damn attractive! And just now having to explain to my non-fandom friends what arm porn is... you would have loved to have been there ;D Still laughing hysterically :D

and I LOVED meeting you too. I said at the time it made my day but in retrospect, it made that whole trip (and that INCLUDES 3 hours in the Gradn Bazaar!!!). So, yeah. Transatlantic hug. :-)

But I can only give back the love *transatlantic hugs back*
