Stolen specifically from xebgoc. Answer in the comments, or re-post!
1. Your Middle Name: Marie. My mother was very creative.
2. Age: Just turned 29
3. Single or Taken: Single. If you don't count the David Tennant that lives with me.
4. Favourite Film: Gone with the Wind
5. Favourite Song or Album: Song: "Nights in White Satin," by the Moody Blues. Album: "Extraordinary Machine," by Fiona Apple.
6. Favourite Band/Artist: Oh, dear. This is impossible. Hmm. Shakira?
7. Dirty or Clean: clean
8. Tattoos and/or Piercings: ears, and an adorable Boston "B" tattoo on my hip (if I do say so myself. And I do.)
9. Do we know each other outside of LJ? Even if we do know each other outside of LJ, don't think I'm going to acknowledge you if we meet on the streets. I'm too cool for that.
10. What's your philosophy on life? If I had a philosophy on life, I'd probably be a lot better at living...
11. Is the bottle half-full or half-empty? I think I have a secret tendency toward half-full that has been ruthlessly beaten out of me.
12. Would you keep a secret from me if you thought it was in my best interest? Yes. I am good at secret-keeping.
13. What is your favourite memory of us? That time in Bogota...
14. What is your favourite guilty pleasure? Non pareils. When I'm having a bad day at work (okay, not every day, a *particularly* bad day), I go to Au Bon Pain and pick up a package.
15. Tell me one odd/interesting fact about you: Most people know this, but it's my standard odd/interesting fact for icebreakers: I had to evacuate from New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina.
16. You can have three wishes (for yourself, so forget all the 'world peace etc' malarky) - what are they? (1) Enough money to quit my job, pay off my condo, and make everyone around me worry less about finances; (2) Partner of Hate never sends me another e-mail ever again; (3) Happiness
17. Can we get together and make a cake? Absolutely. I'm a pretty decent baker.
18. Which country is your spiritual home? I have no clue. Too bad Boston's not a country... The French seem pretty lazy, so that appeals to me...
19. What is your big weakness? I have a natural affinity toward laziness that gets far more intense the longer I deny myself it.
20. Do you think I'm a good person? Depends on one's definition of "good," I suppose...
21. What was your best/favourite subject at school? English
22. Describe your accent: I've worked very hard to get rid of my Rhode Island accent. I am only successful part of the time.
23. If you could change anything about me, would you? Absolutely not. You all rock.
24. What do you wear to sleep? Pajamas.
25. Trousers or skirts? Both, depending upon the season.
26. Cigarettes or alcohol? Alcohol. I actually never used to drink, until I became a lawyer...
27. If I only had one day to live, what would we do together? (If you have no idea, just say something crazy, it'll entertain me!) Probably watch S2 of DW. Why not?
28. Will you repost this so I can fill it out for you? Well, you see, I filled it out once so I'm done (see above re: laziness).
