I run into former CTYers in the most _random_ of places. I really do!

Also - I'm having a horrible amount of indecision. Do I cut my nails, thereby not having had _nearly_ enough enjoyment relating to actually having the things, or do I not, and therefore not be able to play [livejournal.com profile] aelisdeliria's harp?

They're already getting sufficiently long that I need to trim a couple of them in order to type comfortably. But 'trimming' != 'cutting'...

*contemplates*

Ooh, I'm a former CTYer!

I hear ya on the nails. Mine are starting to really annoy me, but they make other people happy and I can't seem to bring myself to be rid of them.

Do you need both hands to play the harp? Could you just leave one nail long and shaped? There are many options for keeping nails enjoyable.

cut them, they'll grow back... :)

(and if you want you can borrow my claws in the meanwhile ;)

Huh. OK, apparently I'm just collecting former CTYers as friends, and just didn't know it! :)

Mine are starting to really annoy me, but they make other people happy and I can't seem to bring myself to be rid of them.

Oh, I trimmed my last night, but not so much as to be _gone_, or to be able to play the harp regularly. I'm still thinking about that one...

Alo! I take it you found me via [livejournal.com profile] laura47?

And, I'm having major trouble with not having time to read the people I already read, so it's more likely than not that I will _not_ be able to add you back. But welcome! :)

Ah, hell. You post infrequently enough, and interestingly enough.

You're added...

Yes! Indeed! And beep to you, too! :)

*amusement*

CTYers! Gotta have 'em all!

(dear gods, wouldn't _that_ be time-consuming!)

*chuckles* Yup!

I know my end date, but I'm not sure on my start date; at least theoretically, from '90-'92. Lancaster, Lancaster, Amherst. I believe it was both sessions, both sessions, only one of the two.

I believe I do need both hands, and according to [livejournal.com profile] aelisdeliria, the only nail that does not tend to get used is the pinky - the finger I am least dextrous with, so which would be the least useful to keep long. :)

You _say_ this...

But this is the first time I've managed to not bite or pick at them long enough for them to _get_ even slightly long. Thus, the indecision.

(and if you want you can borrow my claws in the meanwhile ;)

Ooooh. I currently have banjo picks, but what kind of claws do _you_ have? *curious*

i wouldn't have overlapped with you, then.

Heh! Yet another one, then, hmm?

*amused*

When were you there?

heh...

Well, he lives with his husband Greg in San Francisco...maybe there's an ex-CTY meetup or something. * grin *

Nor would I. I was Carlisle summer of '86, Lancaster/Carlisle summer of '87.

Amusingly, I worked facilities staff the first year Hampshire College (in Amherst) hosted CTY, in the summer of '91, because that was my college at the time.

No, I don't know her beyond LJ, although I have probably met her. And I do know her sweetie.
