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.)

1. Conversely to what I said to wolfheart17 above, when you were a junior I think I thought you were a sophomore. Well, at the beginning of the year, anyway.
2. "Tango: Maureen".
3. Strawberry.
4. Am I pretending to be you, then?
5. My first clear specific memory pertaining to you specifically is not actually of you per se (Latin geek sez: it should be per te, not per se; se is third person), but of lowellboyslash talking about you, in November '01. I knew who she was talking about, though: I had at least seen you at Milk & Cookies several times before then.
6. Something a little front of [u], but not as far front as [ʉ] (which should look like a u with a bar through it): closer to the American English vowel in food than the French vowel in fou is, but still definitely rounded.
7. So—following up on (5)—perhaps the earliest clear specific memory of you that I have for which you were actually present is of hanging out in the Lowell JCR one time, when you said, quote, "I don't like the Noteables." A year later, give or take a bit, you were in the Noteables. What happened?

7) Yeah, I don't know how much I ended up changing that opinion, all told. Mostly, I was looking to try something new out, desperately loved singing and was desperately afraid of auditioning...
