Return of the letter meme
Dec. 8th, 2006 06:12 pmComment and I'll give you a letter. Then you have to list 10 things you
like that begin with the letter. After that, you can post this in your
journal and give out some letters of your own.
beckyzoole, being something of a sadist, gave me a U.
U is for Unicorn: The symbol and ancestor of Amber. I have a (very
non-cutesy) unicorn tattooed on my right calf.
U is for Undressed: My default state, when at home.
U is for Understanding: Something I crave from my birthfamily, but
haven't figured out how to attain.
U is for Unabridged: As in dictionaries and vocabulary. When I was a kid
I was accused of reading the dictionary. I always denied it, although
there was some truth to the accusation: whenever I look something up,
there's always a dozen other things on the page that intrigue me. But
the main truth is that I gained my vocabulary merely from reading
voraciously.
U is for Underwear: While I hate wearing bras (they cut into my
shoulders and pinch me, and I *like* my perky nipples, thank you very
much), I really don't like doing without panties. Every once in a great
while, for variety or horniness' sake, I will, but for everyday, give me
my knickers!
U is for Uppity: This is kind of backwards. I dislike the word "uppity"
itself, as it indicates that there's a "proper place" for the person
being so described, and that place is inferior to the speaker. However,
I admire the attitude and behavior of people who refuse to accept an
inferior place because of societal prejudice, and might therefore be
called "uppity" by someone not me.
U is for Utilikilt: *leer* It almost seems to be a necessary, if not
sufficient, criterion for my boyfriends that they be willing to wear a
kilt. The oftener, the better. Someone will probably point out an
exception, but it's been a trend recently.
U is for Ursula K. Le Guin: I really love _Left Hand of Darkness_.
U is for the Ugly Duckling: I feel very much like I was an ugly
duckling: it was very hard for me to make friends as a child, I never
had any romantic interest expressed in me during adolescence, but now?
I'm blessed to overflowing with friends and lovers.
U is for Universe: I am fascinated by the workings of nature. I saw
something today in a comment thread on
makinglight that I
really liked. A poster there was talking about his Radical Pantheism:
basically, the idea is that Nature is so wonderful in its own right that
it should be worshiped for what it is. (And, as Chris just stated, "It's
where I keep all my stuff!")
I nearly said U is for Uterus, but I don't precisely *like* my uterus.
It's there, it's currently very important to me for the purpose of
project baby, but most of my life it's been a monthly nuisance.
like that begin with the letter. After that, you can post this in your
journal and give out some letters of your own.

Dec. 8th, 2006 06:23 pmI've been wanting to write more double dactyls lately, but I'm completely failing to think of topics. Someone give me some ideas? Something from current events or entertainment news that deserves to be skewered in rhyme...
