Peer pressure

Yes, I finally succumbed. Don't be disappointed if I never write anything interesting here, though; it's just for the friends list.

However, as a reward for anyone who notices that this is here, I'll try to do that meme where you comment and I reply by telling you (1) whatever randomly comes to mind about you, (4) something which doesn't make sense to many people other than you and me, (5) my first clear memory of you, and (7) something I wonder about you, as well as what (2) song, (3) flavor, and (6) vowel I associate with you. Well, I'll try, anyhow.

Yeah.

—AJD, finally back in Philadelphia

(Update: I suppose I've stopped doing this by now.)

Glad to have you around

Looking forward to seeing you show up on comment pages of all our
mutual friends. :)

So, does this count as a request for memage, or does it not count because it's a reply to a comment instead of to the original post?

Sorry, it counts. I'm trying to check LJ from a text-based browser
and hit the wrong link.

1. For some reason I'm always surprised when I'm reminded that you're from Las Vegas. I guess I don't think of it as someplace real people live. Like Salem.
2. I think "More I Cannot Wish You" from Guys and Dolls seems to fit.
3. Lime seltzer.
4. You know, I haven't heard from Shy in ages.
5. I think I had heard of you long before I met you. So I'm really not sure if I had met you or not before the Masq junior year. (You were at the Masq junior year, right?)
6. [ɛ]. An unassuming vowel, but friendly.
7. This may seem like a frivolous question, but: how on earth were you able to sleep on that tiny little couch?

Yes, I was at the Masq junior year. I thought we had met earlier, though, perhaps at a Math 122 study session in Loker. Certainly I remember you singing the song about positive definite bilinear forms and I thought that was before the masq.

As for the couch, well, I can be flexible when needed. It beat sleeping on an airport waiting room seat. Thanks again to you and boojum42 for letting me crash.

I never took Math 122, so that couldn't be it. To be sure, I sang "Positive-Definite Non-Degenerate Symmetric Bilinear Forms" to a lot of people over the course of a couple years, though.
