Your first memory of me

Gacked from [livejournal.com profile] ashmedai and [livejournal.com profile] snowmore:

"If you read this, if your eyes are passing over this right now, even if we don't speak often, please post a comment with a memory of you and me. It can be anything you want -- good or bad. When you're finished, post this little paragraph on your blog and be surprised (or mortified) about what people remember about you."

I just remember you leaving nice comments in Alex' journal. Being curious what your journal contained, I came here finding a little bit of m/m loving heaven! :)

Thank heavens for you, Elisa.

Good, it's good to be remember like someone who left nice comments! Elisa

You have caused me to overspend my book budget so many months, that the management has given up.

Thank you for opening me to many new publishers and authors.

So I'm almost a books pusher... should you report me to the authoruty? Elisa

Wow! Someone else reads M/M books!

I remember a feeling of joy and delight in finding a blog that reviews m/m books. Now, I am hopelessly addicted to your blog and read it everyday. The downside is I now spend a lot more money on books. Thanks for being you and sharing your love of the genre!

I opened my LJ to share a genre that it was not so easy to share, so I'm happy to reach the goal. Elisa

I remember all the pictures of hot men you posted and the reviews of some good m/m romances that I just had to go out and buy! Thanks!

Oh good, so not only books for me, but also eye candy man! Elisa

We have told about this subject repeatedly, so I don't feel like to write here :D

Whatever has colour pink, except for strawberry ice-cream, makes me step back(lol). I was troubled badly with your blogs(I knew your another blog. Erastes gave me link at a midnight of August.), but soon I found that you have rather male brain, as I could guess due to your profession.

Quite accidentally I saw your pics(it's true! the page opened by itself!). I wondered then, "Isn't she Irish?"

I hope you had nice time yesterday.

Yes, I remember very well how we met. But I didn't know that you just "know" me. I rememeber the first time I commented on your post, I was uncertain, since I didn't know if my comment was enough "brainy".

Don't know if being happy or not that you consider me having a "male" brain, but yes, in my field work is a necessity.

It doesn't play any role to be happy, but I regard it as an advantage.

since I didn't know if my comment was enough "brainy".

As I point out often, female writing is very wordy usually, which causes me headache. Their answers were sincere and I appreciated them, but I had difficulty to find the point. On the other hand, I found your answer simple and clear.
In general, but not always, when women say something they always expect reaction of others, but men don't. They just say and never care what will follow. Sometimes it's a bit irresponsible in a way :D It always reminds me when men gets pregnant women, they never know what's going on once their sexual act has finished.
I'm afraid I've got off the subject :D

> I'm afraid I've got off the subject :D

no, it's a good point. And probably I'm simple and clear since I haven't the property of language in English... maybe if I can write in Italian I'm too female to be your friend :-)))

I think someone pointed out the review you'd done of Ransom--and not only was I delighted you enjoyed it, I was astounded that you were reading it in a foreign language (foreign to you, that is.) I've never learned another language thoroughly enough to enjoy reading in it, and I really respect anyone who can do that!

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 01:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh well, if I wanted to read what I like, I need to do that in English. Instead I remember you since you post about me on your LJ, telling that you loved to see someone speaking of your book in Italian.

I can't remember if the first time you were saying lovely things about one of my stories, or if it was about one of my friends' stories, but I do know it was a delightful review, and I knew right then I'd want to read more of what you had to say about the sorts of stories we both seem to like a whole lot!

It's a nice memory so. Good. And yes, it seems we have a lot in common. Elisa
