Two memes and a random note, to the tune of Beck.
A - Accent: Run of the mill American. Turn on the TV, that’s me.
B - Breakfast Item: Whole wheat bagel with peanut butter, organic banana (yes, they are that much better than non-organic) and cranberry juice.
C - Chore you hate: Laundry.
D - Dad’s Name: Crazy. But that’s just my nickname for him.
E - Essential everyday item: Music
F - Flavor ice cream: I don’t eat ice cream. Woe!
G - Gold or Silver? Platinum. ;)
H - Hometown: People’s Republic of Bleeding Heart Liberals. *sigh* I miss that place.
I - Insomnia: Something I have never really understood. Nothing gets between me and my sleep.
J - Job Title: Underappreciated and Underpaid.
K - Kids: My two cats.
L - Living arrangements: Mortgage and one major water leak away from declaring a state of emergency. But I do have a room for my books to live in.
M - Mom’s birthplace: See ‘H’ above.
N - Number of significant others you’ve ever had: One. Any others weren’t quite so significant.
O - Overnight hospital stays: Weird mystery disease when I was a kid. Temporary paralysis that no one ever figured out. All I remember is jello and strange dreams about Doctors experimenting on all the kids on my floor (or was that an episode of Buffy?).
P - Phobias: Sharks. Also very crowded places make me very uncomfortable. But mostly sharks.
Q - Queer: Wouldn’t you like to know.
R - Religious Affiliation: Humanist.
S - Siblings: Sister. Older. And a much better person than I could ever hope to be.
T - Time you wake up: 9ish.
U - Unnatural hair colors you've worn: I went the perm route when I got to that phase.
V - Vegetable you refuse to eat: I love vegetables. I just have an issue with mushrooms.
W - Worst habit: I’m terribly lazy, especially when it comes to doing things ahead of time or stupid chores.
X - X-rays you’ve had: Both wrists, ankles and one knee.
Y - Yummy: Eggplant (aubergine). Spinach. Sushi. Take 5 (the world’s greatest candy bar. Whoever thought to put a pretzel in with caramel, peanut butter and chocolate was a genius.)
Z - Zodiac sign: Pisces. Like anyone is surprised by that.
And second, the Timestamp Meme!
Give me one of my own stories, and a timestamp sometime in the future after the end of the story, or sometime in the past before the story started, and I'll write you at least a hundred words of what happened then, whether it's five minutes before the story started or ten years in the future.
All I ask is that you don't choose a story that isn't finished. (String Theory or Egeria's Legacy). Everything else is up for grabs. Links by category for your convenience:
Angst&Romance
Humor
Novels
Episode Shorts
Wow, I've written more fic than I thought.
