Bio: I'm pretty boring to be honest, lol.
I like my own company due to a fairly lonely childhood (please no pity, I enjoy the peace) and most of my socialising - for want of a better word - is online.
I play a few Trading Card Games and speak to a lot of people on the messageboards through that and have actually made some friends.
Most of my online friends I met through liking bands such as Reel and Westlife, and have met a fair few in going to concerts together and the ever-entertaining world of stalking... sorry... meeting our favourite bands.
On the odd occasions that I venture out of the house aside from work (in a dismally boring office where the work is dreadful and only a handful of co-workers actually slightly more bearable) I like to travel, either to concerts or just to meet up with friends and have a good old drink.
I never really let myself get too drunk these days after a hefty lesson learned after necking a bottle of Archers peach schnapps straight on a nearly empty stomach in October '05 so I often seem boring. But my sense of humour tends to shine through more when I'm with friends, or people I'm comfortable with... or I daresay, when I'm pissed as a fart.
I have a tendency to rebuff all new ideas and changes to the point of dismissing them entirely... until one day I decide to give it a try and subsequently end up being completely obsessed with whatever I had previously been trying to avoid. Even the itnernet - I kid you not - was one example of this. Harry Potter, was another.
I have a soft spot for the TV show; Charmed. Leo is hot. And in fact was featuring in a dream I had last night [25/6/06] where I was for some reason on the roof of a moving train and when I got inside told him there was a leak in the toilet... like he could heal the pipe. Anyway.
I'm often too honest for my own good and at times it has gotten me into trouble.
Sometimes if I point out a mistake that someone has made, I tell them that I do it all the time, to alleviate their embarrassment, even if I have never made the gaffe in my life. I like to keep the peace and often this helps. It's part of my comforting nature I suppose.
Sadly that means that I am rather susceptible to bouts of random crying (when alone mostly) and feeling worthless. Many a day has gone by when I've contemplated my worth and indeed, my entire point of being. But I'm sure I'm not the only person to have had such thoughts.
I am a terrible friend, at times. I have a mild fear of the telephone and I feel that some friends think that I am being rude when I don't call them, especially if they have been off work sick. It's not that I don't care - on the contrary, I often sympathise with people so much that I take on symptoms myself - it's just that either I get nervous on the phone or can't think of anything interesting to say, and on certain occasions calling certain friends I get the distinct feeling they haven't listened to a word I say - yet if I don't call it's that exact same person who feels put out. Some people.
If there's anything else about me that you would like to know... should you have reached this far, I have no problem in you contacting me. Of course, I had meant this LJ to be private... hence the username... but one can't expect to be alone in this world forever.
