Eat the fruit of the tree of boredom...
Well. I'm grounded, bored, and friendless. Therefore... CREEPY INTERNET QUIZZES!
1. Who was the last person you yelled at?
Mitch. He was following me around, being creepy. Sixth grade boys... especially creepy ones...
2. Who was the last person you kissed?
Zach.
3. What was the last memorable book you read?
"Shadow of the Giant", by Orson Scott Card.
4. When did you last dance?
Through my aunt's kitchen. It was a ritual, dating back to primitive times, which the hunters performed in order to catch the elusive... pesto!
5. What's the last thing you want to hear from your parents?
I don't want my mom to cry.
6. When did you last go for a walk?
Last week-ish.
7. When did you last do your ironing?
I ironed a dress shirt. Once. Last year.
8. When was the last time you smiled all day?
The day of the AP Lang trip to Taliesin. That was a good day. Full of... architecture... and hero-worship... and impressive landscapes... and Sarah-almost-dying/going blind... OK so that wasn't the best part. But the movie we watched on the bus, the one about short-term memory loss... that was good.
9. What color of socks do you normally wear?
Um... white?
10. Did you ever attend a private school?
YES.
11. Do you like stuffed animals?
I've got one. His name is Oscar and he's a white bunny with long ears. He wears a bowler hat, and my brothers and sister gave him to me for Christmas last year.
12. Have you ever smashed pumpkins?
No.
14. Can you quote Shakespeare?
If we shadows have offended / think but this, and all is mended... first person to finish it gets a lollipop. No cheating.
15. Do you like playing baseball?
If I win.
16. Are you a neat freak?
hen it suits me. And by that I mean: on paper, not in real life.
17. What is the worst injury you have ever given someone?
This one time, I threw Finley's hat on the roof, then watched his soul shatter. IF YOU'RE READING THIS, FINLEY, I'M SORRY!!!
18. Do you ever eat lemons plain?
Yes.
19. Have you ever fired a gun?
No.
20. Do you own any knee-high boots?
No.
21. Do you have a crush on somebody?
SI.
22. Do you like swimming in lakes?
Yes.
23. Have you ever streaked at a football game or any other public event?
No. However, I do have a deal going... if Anna can get Zach high, I'll streak through the village. But nobody wants to see that, particularly not me.
24. What is you favorite gemstone?
Peridot.
25. Have you gone on any blind dates?
No.
26. Has someone done something extra nice for you?
Yes... what comes to mind is that one time that Erin brought me tea and chocolate chip cookies in the newsroom. You know that one time, when my soul was bleeding...
27. Did you have a crush on any of your teachers?
No. But if you listen to my mother talk, she had a crush on every teacher: her art teacher, her english teacher/the debate coach... Maybe she OD'd on my behalf. Which is fine by me.
28. Have you ever been lost in a bad part of a city?
No. (laughs, in a deep voice) Me? Lost?
29. Would you rather have a mint or fruit flavored gum?
Mint, mint, mint. Unless it's Bubble Yum.
30. Do you have road rage?
On my bicycle? Hells, yes. GET THOSE CARS THE FUCK OUTTA MY WAY!!!
32. Do you ever eat food right out of cans or jars?
Who doesn't?
33. Has your mind ever gone blank?
Yeah... when I was SPF master of ceremonies... (shivers)... (changes subject)
34. Have you ever met anyone interesting at the laundromat?
I don't think I've ever even been to a laundromat.
36. Are you kind? to *everyone*?
No. Sometimes. When I'm in a good mood.
37. Would you give a needy person the shirt off your back?
Well, as I'm wearing *two* right now... yes.
38. Do you have any beanie babies?
Yeah. I have a cardinal and an owl, which are sentimental presents I keep on a shelf. Then I have a leopard, which I throw at the ceiling fan when I'm bored.
39. Would you rather be too warm or too cold?
Too warm.
40. Is the glass half full, or empty?
Half empty. Speaking of that... NEED MORE TEA.
41. Do you exercise or work out regularly?
Haha. No. My fatal flaw.
42. Could you kill someone if your life was in danger?
It would depend on the immediacy/cleanliness of the kill. Because with a gun, for instance, they get a little hole in them and they die. There's a fundamental difference between the killer's perception of shooting someone and, for instance, hacking them to death with a machete. I do know one thing, however. I would totally do what Harrison Ford does in Hollywood Homicide... I would have no problem pushing the bad guy off a tall building into a trash bin that reads HOLLYWOOD WASTE.
Oh, I am bored. I am writing a novel and I am bored. I am charging my iPod and writing a novel and I am bored.
Fortunately my awesome ex-Marine, now-doctor (he gave me my migrane horsepills) thoroughly awesome uncle has swooped in and saved me from death. ish. I am going to watch Amelie. For the SECOND night in a row.
