Catch Me Up

[WickedEve]

Catch me up on who you are. If I know you, then you already know it, but you can still tell me about you. Some of you new guys, even those of you who have been around here for months or a year, I may not really know you. Chances are that I don't. I can't keep up with details and names. So, if you're using your real name on the forum, let me know. Tell me where you're from, if that's something you've shared in the past. What are you into, what kind of poetry do you write (share some) who do you flirt with on the board (yeah, I see it going on) are you bitchy, shy, weird... Details!

Why do I want to know all this? Because I go away sometimes and don't communicate much on the forum, then I lose track. And I have a tendency to be anti-social, from time to time, and not chat it up that much, so that leaves me clueless about some of you.

So what's up with you and who are you???

I'm Wicked Eve. Only time I use my real name is when I have a poem on another site or in a book or I may use it in a poem. Hi, I'm Donna. I'm one of the poetry forum moderators, which means that I remove spam, stick things to the top of the forum, clean threads when they get sloppy, answer PMs when someone needs help. I know. It sounds fun. lol I've been here since 2001. I'm from the South. I'm into bdsm, dildos, mild wickedness. I used to write about bob bob -- my ex who is now dead. Well, I still write about him. I have two little kids. I'm a diabetic -- write about that too, sometimes. I'm into photography. I used to have a site called eve's habit. Some of you remember that. I also mention Hugo, a lot. His name is George and he's a friend/lover/boyfriend/dom. I love him and I want to bury him in a hole in the backyard when he's an ass.

Any questions for me? Ask! I love to talk about myself.

Now tell me about you!!! Actually, I want to hear about all of you. Yes, there's the roll call thread but I want fresh info!

 

[Angeline]

I'm Angeline. Well really I'm Shara as you know. I'm your lovable sidekick moderator who got dragged to the forum in 2002 by Lauren Hynde who never comes here anymore.

What's new?
Well, we're still trying to get our financial ducks in a row so we can move to Asheville, NC and be tungtied's neighbors. We're probably driving down in the fall to scope it out and try to find a place to live. And tungtied doesn't know it yet, but eagleyez informed me yesterday that we need to rent one of these to move all our stuff there. Note that you have to unload it yourself. Start eatin your Wheaties tungtied! (Or run away as fast as you can!)

The only other thing that's new is that we went here for dinner last night and I had coconut crusted shrimp and this incredible deep dish lobster pie. Then I came home and puked it all up. What a party girl I am, huh? I still have no idea what happened. I don't think it was the food. ee had some of it (plus his own dinner) and he was fine. And I was fine immediately afterward. A half hour afterward I was hungry again and ate half a pint of coffee heath bar ice cream. Go figure.

 

[sassynyc]

Hi Eve.

I'm Sassy. I've been here a little less than a year. The poetry I write is free verse, and varies in subject. The PFD is my favorite little corner of Lit. There's just a cool vibe here. I peruse the other sections, but this spot feels like home to me. I've learned a lot on the forum, and can see the improvement in my writing since I've been here.

So, you want character traits? Let's see. I'm introverted, oh so anti-social. I've been at Lit since September of '07. I never said a peep on the poetry threads until about February. It takes me a while to warm up to people, but once I'm comfortable, I make myself at home. I'm friendly enough. Bitchy......not unless provoked. Sarcastic, but not mailicious. I have to have a rapport with someone before I start wielding the smart assery. I generally root for the underdog. I'm probably more cynical than is healthy, but it serves me well.

I don't talk much about myself on a personal level. Any soul baring I've done here, I blame on Bijou and her Naked thread. I'm a bookworm/music junkie with a lingerie and shoe habit that warrants some type of therapy.

Um, I think that about does it, but I do have a question. UYS and myself were trying to figure out the current pic in your sig line. What exactly, is it?

Nice to meet ya.

 

[champagne1982]

Hi, I'm Carrie, most of you know my other name is Pam. I've been around for a bit of a while and still find anti-social moments in my life. They're farther between than ever before since all of you wacky people are easy to talk to.

When I tell you about my medical misadventures I get a bit of sympathy, but most importantly, you are my support, holding me up without carrying me. I'm blessed to have you wonderful poets to chat with.

There's been so much wonder, some no small amount of sorrow and (best of all) incredible joy shared on this forum. It's a miracle to be part of it.

Hi I am Annie part of the English contingent. I am married to Ron who is a fair few years older than me we have been married 9 years sometimes he drives me nuts but it was him taught me what love really was. I am 58 years old and a true blonde (yes collar and cuffs!) I am far too easy to hurt and have never learnt to have a thick skin and I am politely English, but don't let that fool you into thinking I can't stick up for myself if need be .. I don't often fly but if I do watch out you don't want to be in the way.
I had a bloody awful childhood that I keep hidden away in deep dark vaults but it sometimes slips out to haunt me and my poems. When I first came here rhyming poetry was all I knew and I wrote reams of it because it was so easy (give me a subject and I'll write you a poem sort of stuff) but now I have been gently encouraged to try other things.
Flirting? Ah yes well I keep trying to encourage Leon into the backroom of the Bistro! But who could blame me ? He's so hottttt!
I can be bitchy especially where lack of fair play is concerned (must be that English thing again) but I don't think I am bitchy for no reason. I get on with most people I see on here although there are some I wouldn't touch with a barge pole or to put it less genteelly I wouldn't P on them if they were on fire! As in most situations there are those that you think are friends to start with but turn out to fair weather friends then there are those that stick to you like glue when times are tough. So you're the kind of friends I treasure and although

[Remec]

Now tell me about you!!! Actually, I want to hear about all of you. Yes, there's the roll call thread but I want fresh info![/B]

Oh dear...fresh info, eh?

Well, let's see...

Hi, I'm Remec. I was born Sean, and still answer to it, and also still use the names Aldarras and Fax at various places around the cyberverse (mostly Yahoo! and MSN, but also at lesser known places like Kongregate and Neopets)

I have three kids--two step and one of my own--a wife and a housemate. (He's her additional SO, but we're not so much a triad as two pairs.) It's still summer vacation for the kids which means my writing is next to nil, although I have been getting a surprising amount of forum time of late. (And in the GB at that!)

I gravitated over this way after dropping some items in a few poetry threads on the AH, which I migrated to after playing on the SRP for a while (and lurking for even longer hehehe). I write mostly free verse and constructed, non-rhyming poetry, but dabble in pretty much anything that strikes my fancy or interest.

Any other questions? Feel free to give a holler, either here or in PM

 

[Guest]

Heyya Eve. I go by Jamison/Jami-san/Jamis/Jamie/J. This is the username use now, but I used the neo one and I've been here since 2002. Together, we presently have over 350 submissions here on Lit.

I'm bi, but married and have two wee ones, the eldest, I refer as Junior and have written many poems about her. I write poems on things I obsess about such as coffee, photography and my kinky sex stuff. Since I have PTSD and Major Depressive Disorder, I write about that too and most anyone who reads my stuff knows when I'm in a down. I've appreciated those who've lifted me when I was, knowing or not.

Over the years I've taken great comfort in my writing and learning from my poet friends such as you and those who've been around long time and those who've left us already as well as the new poets who've graced this forum.

Did not know about the Pam name. And hopefully the misadventures will quickly come to an end.

I did not know you're bi. I really do read almost all your poems. I'm a fan, but I don't recall reading any poems about anything bisexual, unless you just haven't written anything about it. It would be interesting, though.
I understand about the depression. I've dealt with bipolar and manic fun off and on over the years. It's not nearly a bother like it was when I was younger. I know that poetry can be great, great, great therapy!

 

[WickedEve]

--a wife and a housemate. (He's her additional SO, but we're not so much a triad as two pairs.)

Oh, god, I'd love to hear more about this! This is kind of material that's great for writing! I hope you use some of this for poetry or story inspiration.

 

[CeriseNoire]

I'm Cerise. I haven't been here all that long, and I guess I'm "officially" an AHer. I lurk here more than I post, and as I recall, you almost scared me off when I first wandered into PF&D. Then I thought it would make me a rather pathetic person if I just ran off. I'm glad I stayed. Besides, I got the inspiration for a poem from that incident.

As far as writing goes, before I showed up here, I hadn't written any poetry for about five years or so. I have about zero skill when it comes to traditional poetry, but I'm working on it. I still think I write better in French.

Anyway, the most interesting thing about me is probably that I lived a little over half of my life in Europe (the first half). Aside from that, I'm as boring as people come.

Finally, I find that I like this place for the same reason that I tend to stay away from it: it's one of the only places where I feel young and green.

 

[WickedEve]

And tungtied doesn't know it yet, but eagleyez informed me yesterday that we need to rent one of these to move all our stuff there.

I wonder if you could live in one of those pods? Hmm, pod people.

Sorry you barfed up good food.

 

[unpredictablebijou]

Okay, I'll go.

I'm bijou. In physical reality, many call me Kacey, or Skunk, and there are a few who even call me bijou. They've discovered I answer to it, and it was in fact one of the names I used before I ever got to this board. I like names, so I have a lot of them. There are even a few people who call me Third-Eye Sadie, especially when I'm wearing the Sacred Cowgrrrl Hat.

My household is myself and two men, who I refer to as "husbands" though there's no legal marriage. It's more about their common job of animal husbandry, since I am an unmanageable varmint. We have a common daughter, who did not survive her birth, and who would have turned 5 this past June. The guys have a daughter apiece from previous marriages, but both are adults already.

We live on a ridiculously overgrown piece of land in the country, in a house that is little more than a yurt with a foundation, but we get along alright and we can blow up ANYTHING on the fourth of july without worrying about the law showing up.

I've been here since May of 07 but talk a lot so my post count is more ridiculous than most. I characterize my feeling about this place, and particularly the poetry forum, as a love at first sight for an entire village. Soon as I saw it, I knew I wanted to live here.

I'm either the village witch, the village idiot or a simple restaurant owner with no particular agenda, depending on who one asks. And I'm scandalous in that I'm here as much to talk about sex as to talk about poetry. Ideally, to talk about both at the same time.

And I rarely do reviews or give critique and feedback because a) I always have really weird ideas that few if any agree with, and b) I love just about everything I read for one reason or another.

I think that's quite enough from me

Nice to meet ya.

It's from around 2002 or 2003. Our poetry forum friend, smithpeter, who died about 4 years ago (has it been that long, Ange?) took the photo of the house and cut tree. The other pic is me with my head cut off -- um, photoshop, of course. lol I had a poem with it somewhere. It was comparing me to the cut tree. I may post a larger, original version. Anyway, I post weird stuff.

No, Annie! Bad, Annie! I want the truth. I can handle it! You're really a she-devil or an alien. I just know you are.
Okay, tell me more about Leon. I never knew he was so hot.

 

[WickedEve]

and as I recall, you almost scared me off when I first wandered into PF&D. Then I thought it would make me a rather pathetic person if I just ran off. I'm glad I stayed. Besides, I got the inspiration for a poem from that incident.

Oh, I must know more about this. Details! God, what did I do? I'm usually so nice, but... well, I can come across like a loony witch creature or something. Really I can. Did I make comments about a poem? It was a poem, wasn't it? And you wrote a poem about it? Lordy, I'm the devil. I always suspected it.
Anyway, tell me what happened and I apologize in advance.

That's a tree? I thought it was a ghostie holding a child!

No, Annie! Bad, Annie! I want the truth. I can handle it! You're really a she-devil or an alien. I just know you are.
Okay, tell me more about Leon. I never knew he was so hot.

A changelinggggg tsk don't you know a changeling child when you see one? Oh I've had the hots for Leon since I arrived but don't tell anyone will you?

 

[WickedEve]

anyway, that's it. hope I didn't take up too much space

Talk, talk, talk... I love you.

Yeah, it's a tree. Goodness, I need to find the original and show it to you.

You're just too odd and I haven't been my usual old, odd self lately. I must out-odd you. I'm putting it on my to-do list.

2. Write poetry
3. Crank up the odd

[LadynStFreknBed]

Hi, Eve. I'm Sheila. I think I'm the resident hermit of the crew. I'm on disability until at least next July, so I'm taking advantage of this time to write. I'm also finishing my bachelor's of science in psychology at University of Phoenix.

I love villanelles! You may have noticed my erotic villanelle challenge. I appreciate other form poetry as well.

I have a smart ass, teenage daughter with Asperger's (a mild form of autism). I have two sons, aged 11 and 9. We live in Central PA. This month some long-overdue work is going to start on my house.

I'm an artist. I used to participate in local artshows, but it's hard to do that and remain a hermit! My blog has links to my stories and poems on Literotica as well as some photos of my artwork.

Literocat and I flirt on the Survivor thread- though Literocat is a walking hormone and will flirt with anyone. I find his fictional affairs quite amusing.

I spend an occassional moment on the AH board. Most recently, I had it out with BFW and put him on ignore. I think the world is a better place that way.
