I've never done one of these on Posterous or Tumblr before, but I started thinking about it & I like the idea. In the beginning, these sorts of things are the way Livejournal built community; you learned about your friends list from these "fill in the blank" sorts of things. So in an effort to build community, I present...me!
Name: Hillary
Tumblr/Posterous Name: hillarygayle (on both)
Nickname: I don't really have one. HG is the closest; one physician calls me "Red" & gets away with it
Birthday: March 12, 1979
Age: 31
Location: Weiner, Arkansas, United States
High school: I graduated from Weiner High School. No lie.
Current school/job: Registered nurse
Status: Motivated
Random fact about you: I am a survivor of 3rd degree burns & skin grafting.
Hobbies/Interests: Reading, photography, blogging, crocheting & knitting, being a coffee snob, listening to Jeff Coffin & Dave Matthews Band, discovering new jazz, saving the world
Do you smoke/drink: No smoking for me. Smoke of any sort makes my lungs itch. I do drink. I like sweet red wines (red muscadine is my favorite), cocktails made with real fruit (mixes are too much corn syrup, not enough real), and Woodchuck Ciders.
Why Tumblr or Posterous? I started a Tumblr originally because it seemed like a good balance between Livejournal (where I blog about life) and Twitter (where my ADD has a perfect outlet). When I found Posterous, it was everything I liked about Tumblr with some of the things I'd longed for (like commenting, specifically). Posterous is my mobile blog; a slice of my life pretty much as it happens. Since I export everything from Posterous to Tumblr & LJ & Facebook & all that, Posterous has become more of a way for me to live out loud. I'm really enjoying it.
