You're interesting, well-read, funny, you write brilliant dialogue, you're cute and sweet, and you manage to pull things together amazingly well under improbable circumstances.
That's not a maple leaf. It's a communist pin from Cuba, IIRC. Also, that is in fact a real Russian Red army issue commie hat. It belongs to my mother. :)
Re: That ain't a commie hat! It's got a maple leaf on it.
Oh, my mistake! You have one too then! You know, with all of the Soviet memorabilia available today, it reminds me of that old Jackson Browne song: "Lawyers in Love" heh heh!
Re: She is lovely, brilliant... Okay, now you've done it -- it has to be sung:
Yeah, and that lucky bum lives close enough where that is a possibility! The rest of us will just have to settle with downloaded bootleg concert tapings! Seriously though, I would like to hear what Random Colour sounds like, if you feel like posting an MP3 or four.
Where to start? The fact that you are a pearl among women, the most pleasant of company, articulate, witty, funny, sharper than a bucket full of double-edged razor blades, stick at nothing and therefore good to have along for just about anything, capable of baiting your own hooks, creative, and loved by an impressively large number of really neat people?
You are multi-talented, intelligent and express yourself well. You're always willing to try new things and you set your sights high -- and you succeed. You look for ways to better yourself, and that's a rare gift indeed (not so rare among our friends, granted, but that's why they're our friends, yes?).
If life hands you lemons, you roll with it and carry on.
And you *do* stuff. Yes, they are shinies, but like Ceri says, you're multi-talented. You find something that you think you'd like to do, and you do it.
A while back I posted that there were a bunch of folks on my friends list that I had friended because I admired them and wanted to see if I could adopt some of their best qualities by osmosis. You're one of them.
You know I think you're talented, funny and prolific (I've said it before, I'll say it again, please collect all the "Dear ____ Letters" in one collection).
I also think you're far more open and honest about your insecurities than most people I meet who pretend that everything is cool (which sometimes works, but none of that easy-way-out for you!).
I think sometimes your anger is a sadness in overdrive, which makes me sad.
I predict (for whatever that is worth) that your inner peace and lasting happiness will be hard won, but when you possess it will never be able to be taken away from you and you won't need anyone (least of all, me) to tell you good things about yourself.

You're creative, funny, and interesting.
What'd I win?

That ain't a commie hat! It's got a maple leaf on it.

Re: She is lovely, brilliant... Okay, now you've done it -- it has to be sung:
And she's okay,
She sleeps all night,
And she works all day,
She cuts down trees,
She eats her lunch,
She likes to press wild flawrs,
She puts on women's clothing,
And hangs around in bars!
Dude. Your turn.

And you love to read. I adore that about you.
