Nicked this from
ladydeathfaerie and
strawberispring. Because apparently I have no focus at all and writing anything isn't working. (I swear to God, Jamie. I WILL get it done this weekend. >.<) Anyway, here's a little about me.
1. Name:
Amanda Joy... you don't need the rest, and online I really do prefer Daz.
2. Birthday:
June 21, 1981
3. Where do you live:
Calgary, AB, Canada. Yee-fucking-haw.
4: What are you studying/What are you working as:
I'm a stay-at-home mom.
5. What makes you happy:
My family (most of the time), not having to cook, comics (that don't suck... or do because that gives me an excuse to rant like a maniac), music... a lot of things, I guess.
6. What are you listening to now/have listened to last:
All I Want is You - U2
7. What is particularly good/bad about my LJ:
Umm... good? There's fic? I don't know... bad? Everything else? I bore everyone will stuff like this questionnaire. lol
8. An interesting fact about you:
I speak three languages (English, French and Ukrainian)... and have a vague smattering of a bunch of other languages. lol
9. Are you in love/have a crush at the moment:
Well, next summer will be five years happily married (this October was eight years together) so... crazy, head over heels in love? No, we've settled into something far more saane and lasting than that. LOL
10. Favorite place to be:
Somewhere quiet where I can write.
11. Favorite lyric:
You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can’t relate
And you’re still here
~Everything, Alanis Morissette

PLUS
1. One thing you like about me:
you guys! What would I do without you guys? You both encourage my insanity in ways I'd probably never have gone without you! And I do mean that in the good way. lol
2. Two things you like about yourself:
Umm... my imagination. It's hard to get bored with it. lol And... umm... I don't know. I... am pretty passionate about stupid pointless shit... that's a good thing.

Whatever. *shrug*
