Hmmm...

There's an LJ user named [livejournal.com profile] kristinesmith.

It's not me.

It's not exactly an uncommon last name...

[identity profile] kristine-smith.livejournal.com 2004-09-27 08:50 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I know. But the first isn't all that common, and the two together tend to get my attention.

[identity profile] daveamongus.livejournal.com 2004-09-29 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
What's funny is that, in speaking, I often have to distinguish between all the Kristine, Christine, and Christina types that I know, or [livejournal.com profile] tappu gets confused.

I think you're the only one I know to spell it with a K, but I could easily be wrong.

Check to see if your non-LJ name is in use on LJ.

Doubt they'll be there long. One post. Created in 2004 - I guess you could have squatted if you'd cared. How'd you notice, BTW?

I friended a buddy who had just joined LJ, and saw that she had friended this person. Just followed the link.

[identity profile] juliabk.livejournal.com 2004-09-27 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep, took another mutual friend to point me here. :-) What can I say? There's only *one* Kristine Smith in my universe. :-)

[identity profile] kristine-smith.livejournal.com 2004-09-27 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
As anyone will tell you, one is enough.

[identity profile] juliabk.livejournal.com 2004-09-27 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
One is bountious. :-)

Speaking of which, I'm still looking forward to the book I hope you write after the one you're working on.

If I finish the one I'm working on, I will jump up and down.

The mentorly [livejournal.com profile] alfreda89 read the synopsis in question, however, and pronounced it "lovely". Did me a world of good, because it is a change in genre, and you're never quite sure if change is a good idea.

I hope someone buys it.

[identity profile] juliabk.livejournal.com 2004-09-27 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
alfreda89 is obviously a person of taste and discernment. Change keeps us fresh.

They will. Believe me, they'll buy it.

Give the woman an inch...

[identity profile] kristine-smith.livejournal.com 2004-09-27 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
...she'll take Manhattan. The Bronx and Staten Island, too...

[identity profile] juliabk.livejournal.com 2004-09-28 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
...it's lovely going through the zoo.

HA! You *challenge* ME???? According to my child I know every song ever written (but she's 10, what does she know). On the other hand, I have a browser and I'm not afraid to use it.

Ugh... day job.

I don't want to work!
I want to strum the guitar all day!

And maybe write a little. Put those shelves up in the garage. Put together the dinette hutch that's been sitting in its box since I bought it in February...

Me, too!!!!

I wanna sleep all day and read all night. Except when I'm writing all night.

I wanna learn to play the piano.

I wanna make my own pasta.

I wanna pack a bag, hop in the car and pick a direction. Stop when I'm tired and pick a direction in the morning.

I wanna prowl through used furniture stores and refinish whatever I find that I fall in love with (furniture, not men - they don't varnish well :-).

I wanna spend *weeks* going through entire television shows I didn't discover until they went off the air.

I wanna have a garden that I can play with and ignore if I get bored with it.

I wanna win the lottery so I can afford to do all this and whatever else comes to mind.

*sigh*

Hey, it's Julia! (Dave Klecha, here.)

I love making my own pasta...

Re: Have Browser--Will Travel

[identity profile] juliabk.livejournal.com 2004-09-29 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
Figured that was you. :-)

I've done it a few times, but that was before my life got soooo... complicated. :-)

I can dig it. Haven't had much time myself over the past almost-nine-months now. ;)

[identity profile] juliabk.livejournal.com 2004-09-29 11:24 am (UTC)(link)
Here's hoping you get to come home soon.

Re: Have Browser--Will Travel

[identity profile] daveamongus.livejournal.com 2004-09-30 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
Should be in the US in a coupla days.

Very cool! Hope you get to stay here. Well, unless you *want* to go somewhere else. :-)
