CSI (I stopped watching after Grissom left) - yeah, me too. ):

Oh and I like your music :D (Muse, The Killers, Florence and the Machines, Mando Diao, Queen)

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

I loved CSI, but honestly, it was mostly because of Grissom. It just got really crap after he left. :( Even if I kinda liked him going back to Sara ♥

[mothergoddamn.livejournal.com]

"And some facts about me, simply because I like the sound of my own voice..."

I bet you never gave anyone a choice? An intellectual tortoise?

HAVE NOT FORGOT ABOUT THE MOOD THEME. Have been out all day and it takes a bit too do so will do tomorrow.

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

*sings* AAAALLLL BECAUSE OF YOUUUUUU

I'll just keep writing more KKBB porn. DAMN YOU WOMAN! DAMN YOUUUU!

[lifes-not-long.livejournal.com]

Goshness! *points to FO banner* That man is pure GORGEOUSNESS!

And i'm already your friend but I just noticed you stopped watching CSI after Grissom left, me too! And killing off Warrick was so friggin dumb! And Ohhhh sleepy hallow...*sighs* I loves Johnny Depp! Robert and Johnny you can never go wrong with one of their movies.

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

IKR? Just looking at that pic makes me want to ravish him all warm and fuzzy inside. ♥

Yeah, killing Warrick was one of the stupidest things they did. After that it got kinda dumb. And was I the only one who hated Sofia with a passion? She was kinda like a wanna-be Sara. She really annnoyed me. But I really miss the show sometimes, it was my first favourite TV show ever.

[found-in-sound.livejournal.com]

I'd like to be added! :)

Read your fic and you sound AWESOME as a person so...:)

And U2 is LIFE. What is your favourite album? Mine is The Unforgettable Fire. :)

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

Added you. :)

My favourite is Achtung Baby. I just adore the album, it's been my favourite since I was four. :D

[sweet-minion.livejournal.com]

i'm using this post to tell you how i love your holmes-fanfiction. i've been reading it via rss-feed on my blackberry and couldn't comment on any of them yet, but thought i should let you know i read them and love them, especially the fact that you use u2 references ^.^
those stories make my train journeys way more bearable.

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

Oh, thank you! I'm always happy to hear people enjoy my writing (especially if they get the U2 references! :D ) Glad I could make your train journeys a bit better, bb! ♥

[mothergoddamn.livejournal.com]

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

FUCKING HELL STOP CHASING ME WITH THIS PICTURE PEOPLE I'VE ALREADY GOT A CRAMP IN MY RIGHT HAND. GUH.

I NEED A NEW BUNK.

♥

[pudupudu.livejournal.com]

I'm with you on most things (except for Lewis Carroll; I'm writing the biography of his speech therapist's son and dodgy Dodgson makes me shudder). Still, I hope this doesn't count against me too much- in my defence, I do adore -your- stories and would love to be added :-D

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

See, if you'd said something like "I hate Tolkien" or "Harry Potter is better than LotR" or "U2 sucks" I would have seriously considered not adding you. But as I'm not that obsessed with Carroll and you flattered me (flattery gets you anywhere with me [/attention whore]) I'm adding you. :D ♥

[me-toria.livejournal.com]

hi i was hoping to friend you :)
i read your info ' Lover of beautiful things and anything British.'
In which case you have to add me as i am anything British heh he :D

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

BRITISH PEOPLE EEEEEEEE *flails*

>_> *ahem*

Adding you! :D ♥

Was the intellectual tortise...

[cutebutpsycho99.livejournal.com]

Racing with a bullet train?

Friending you now. Not that I have anything on my LJ. I think everything I do on my LJ is comment on other people's stuff and meme activities.

But you never know if I start working out some writer neurosis on there....

Re: Was the intellectual tortise...

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

I need more U2 fans on my flist. *adds* <3

[17pansies.livejournal.com]

I've friended you as I just lurve your fic and tend to give a little girly squeal when I spot something on the 'meme or Cox & Co by you :)

That and I'm English - does that help add to my befriending brownie points? (unsure as to whether that expression crosses the Atlantic in one piece, but if nothing else, it'll amuse)

Plus I just come here to drool over the title pic. And your new icon - omg, did I mention that new icon of yours? *incoherent dribble*

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

Oooh more English people. :D ♥

You mean that icon? *points*

[flibbles1989.livejournal.com]

Hello!

Erm.... I feel like I'm at a job interview.

Hi, my name's Flibbles1989 and you should friend me as I am British and I wrote you a fic about Holmes eating an apple once. :D

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

LOL! I didn't mean to make you feel like this was a job interview. I just wanted people to give me a shout out when they friend me and let me know who they are/that they're friending me for reasons other than to get updates on my fic.

Mmm...Holmes eating an apple....*drools*

*friends you back* <3

[foes-of-reality.livejournal.com]

That face means "Will you be my friend?" :D

I would have added you sooner, but I didn't actually write in my journal until a few days ago, so I felt awkward about friending people. But, as I'm sure you know from all my commenting, I've loved all your Sherlock Holmes fanfiction ever since I somehow wandered into the fandom. :)

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

You had me at the cute monkey pic! :D

*adds you back* ♥

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

JUST REALIZED WE ARE NOT LJ FRIENDS. WHAT IS THIS MADNESS.

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

DUDE. THIS WILL NOT DO AT ALL.

ALSO, MY COVERED-IN-PAINT-RDJ!ICON SAYS HELLO TO YOURS.

[piplover.livejournal.com]

Hi, Wavie!!! I figured we should be friends, lol. How are you holding up?

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

I can't believe we weren't LJ friends already! I'm doing alright, trying to get a job and figuring out when to get the chemo, but I'm okay. How are you?

[mothergoddamn.livejournal.com]

DVD Only Epilogue to Lost if you haven't seen yet

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

That sound you just heard? Was me knocking over stuff with my flailing. ♥

[maddyduke.livejournal.com]

Hey! I found you after reading some of your fiction - they are totally amazing by the way, Apologies actually had me in a quivering mess on the floor - I'd love it if I could add you as my friend and you could do the same? I've just got LiveJournal and you're the first person I thought of to find, so I have no idea how this works...
...anyhow... :)

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

late!reply is late... Added you back! :) Welcome to the crazy world of LJ :D

[auburn-whelan.livejournal.com]

U2, LotR, SH, and RDj, plus awesome fanfic writing? Add me, please! :D

...and yes, I got the All Because of You reference. ;)

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

Added you! <3

[fullmoon02.livejournal.com]

"It´s only after you´ve lost everything", Tyler says, "that you´re free to do anything."

Too few people understand the amazingness of Fight Club. Good to know at least one who does :)

Sincerely yours,

Jack´s wasted life

Btw, don´t you too think that the line "Born and raised by those who praise control of population" in RHCP´s Californication is very close to being a perfect line. I personally have fallen in love with it today. I could definitely use it somewhere.

Oh, btw: Love your fanfiction ♥.

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

That is quite possibly my favourite quote from Fight Club and one of my fave quotes ever. Fight Club is one of that books that genuinely changed my world. Not a lot of books had such a huge impact on me. <3

Not a big RHCP fan myself, but I agree that line is pretty fucking epic.

Aw, shucks. I'm glad to hear you enjoy it. :) Also, NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS ICONNNN. *flails*

*adds*

[unsettledink.livejournal.com]

Oh, pffft, way to be lame self. So I keep thinking, I should totally friend you, since you are awesome every time I run across you - and then wander off again. And then I'm poking the f!s friending meme all, 'awesome person', look up, and ahahaha, of course! It's you. So.

Mind if I friend you?

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

Heh. If I believed that things happen for a reason I'd say something like "OMG that's a sign!", but I don't, so you'll get this smiley :D and will be friended immediately.

[moonshinefaerie.livejournal.com]

Okay. Let's see. I'm Kelly. :D
We share a love (and by love, I mean UNF) of RDJ. Lord is the man gorgeous or what?!

U2. David Bowie. Coldplay.

LOTR, From Hell, Sherlock Holmes, Fight Club, The Prestige. IRONMAN too. Though you don't list it but RDJ movie... and buh, shirtless RDJ at that. @_@

I STOPPED WATCHING CSI WHEN GRISSOM LEFT BECAUSE CSI IS NO LONGER CSI WITHOUT HIM. END STORY.

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

YESSS. RDJ is one gorgeous man. *drools* Ironman is definitely one of my faves, even if I didn't list it up there. (Couldn't list every single movie I love, because FFF MOVIE WHORE D:)

BECAUSE CSI IS NO LONGER CSI WITHOUT HIM.

WORD. I miss Grissom. He was one of my first TV crushes. <3

I am so adding you. :D

[slashykink.livejournal.com]

Oh hi! I'm from the shkinkmeme, and am absolutely also a fan of Sherlock Holmes and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. I really like your work, so I'm friending you; I'd be flattered if you add me back, but I quite understand if you don't. :)

[wave-of-sorrow.livejournal.com]

Oooh, I've been reading your stuff over at the meme (I fail at commenting *facepalm*). Friending you back :)
