Grabbing some coffee or trying to fix my darkarts drabble. It's dreadful at the moment.
14. Ever met any of your online friends in real life?
No, but I certainly plan to

Attending my cousin's housewarming party and making food for it.
16. If you could play any musical instrument, which one would you play?
I play several, but I really really really want to learn how to play the harp
17. How are you?
Hmm. That's a toughie. May I say, okay, but with a chance of hunger pains and a caffeine headache in the forecast.
18. How do you view the world?
Through very jaded eyes. I wish it were different.
19. What are you looking forward to the most?
Working on my joint projects with Sempra and Mimi
20. How did you come to start your LJ?
I was reading For The Potions Master's Amusement, and there was a community here dedicated to that fic, so I decided to register, but I didn't become active until dA kicked me out for being too deviant almost 9 months later.
21.How did you find your first friends?
From the friends I made on dA, who then suggested I become active here. Best thing that ever happened to me.
22.Are those first friends still on your FL?
Absolutely. I have only unfriended one person, but she was not one of my firsts anyway.
23.How long have you been on LJ?
Since June or so of last year, but didn't become active until January of this eyar.
24.Do you have more friends or communities on your FL?
More friends. I'm not part of a huge amount of communities, because I'm afraid I won't give them enough of my time and attention.
25.What do you like in an LJ friend?
Someone creative, funny, caring, who replies to my inanities, even if just to give a virtual hug
26.What do you dislike?
Too much self-righteousness or someone who takes fanfic so seriously. It's just fanfic. Write it well and I'm yours, but don't tell me what I should or should not write or what I should or should not read.
27.What would make you un-friend someone immediately?
If they insulted or wanked, or were like the person described in No. 26, who I did eventually unfriend for being unpleasant.
28.Have you been caught up in a lot of LJ drama?
No, and I hope never to. I cherish my friends, but I don't like being in a pissing contest with anyone. I just end up covered in piss.
29. Do RL friends and family members know you have a journal on LJ?
Sure. They don't really appreciate the importance of it, but because they love and support me, I'm given a lot of wiggle room..
30. Do you also have Facebook and if so, what do you prefer – LJ or FB?
I have two FB accounts and hardly ever go on them anymore. It's nice for a quick roundup, but I hardly ever post. I usually just read what other people are posting. The Hubs is more of a Facebooker than me.
31. What about Twitter?
Nah. I just don't get it.
32.Do you blog on any other sites?
I have an Insane Journal account, but it's just for emergency posting.
33.How often do you check in on LJ?
A stupid amount during the day. It's my crack.
34.What do you rarely or never post about?
Things that don't interest me whatsoever, like politics and religion.
35.Why don’t you post about that?
Because I'm not politically savvy enough to hold my own in a conversation and end up sounding like a twit, and organised religion disturbs me now.
36. Have you ever thought about deleting your journal?
No
37. Have you ever changed your username?
No. My name and me are the same.
38. Why did you choose your current username?
Because I took the name years ago from a friend who's son had named his rabbit Teddy Radiator. I thought it sounded cool, like the name of a jump jive band. The name stuck, and I feel more like a Teddy than I ever felt like a... ah ha! Almost got me there!
39. If you’re looking for new friends, how do you find them?
I haven't really thought of it. When I see someone I admire creatively, I will ask to friend them.
40.Are you taking new people on to your Friends List just now?
I just friendedwindwingswrites a few days ago, even though I've been loving her stuff here for ages, and I suddenly realised she wasn't on my friends list, just part of the one_bad_man community. Nice, nice friend. Hell of an artist, as well.
