ask me, tell me.

The problem with Livejournal is that it fosters an artificial sense of intimacy even when we know so little. I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about. Or something not so obvious, maybe something you just wonder about. Then post this in your LJ (if you want to) and find out what people don’t know about you.

I had to reword that meme just a bit, but the message is the same.

TCM is showing all kinds of fabulous early 1940s spooky movies, like Leopard Man and Cat People. Black and white movies on summer afternoons with cold water.

I tried to combat my horrid laziness by cleaning the bedroom. I picked up everything on the floor on my side of the room, and even vacuumed. One of the things I miss is having the bed against the wall. It prevents me from acquiring a pile of things, and I like to put my feet up on the wall while reading in bed.

Currently I work part time, from home. I have a comfortable armchair that serves as my office. I work for a second generation dot-com, which has a lot of the fun and easy going aspects the initial generation did but now with more fiscal responsibility. Still lots of the same free snacks though. The company culture is friendly, open, engaging and it is all such a relief after nearly three years at a state job.

The actual work itself involves moderating user created content for various retail websites. Essentially, I get to observe in real time the peculiar habits of the online shopper. I see what hideous, hideous article of clothing from the home shopping networks is popular, learn eleventy million things about hotels I didn't want to know, and generally baffle over the consumer's tastes, spelling and absurdly high or low standards. Honestly I love this job. It's fascinating. After three years of intense, intense social work that was nothing but constant crisis management, having a job that deals so little in death and violence is a relief.
