I don't feel like posting, so instead, memes. I picked up these two from patientalien, I think.
1- Elaborate on your default icon.
During one of the 'oh noes people writes fanfic!!' kerfuffles, I commented with the quote, and tree made an icon out of it! Thank you.

Yes.
4- Name an obvious quality you have.

No.
7- Who will cut and paste this first?

9- Do you wear a watch? What kind?
Yes, a Timex.
10- Do you have anything pierced?

No, they're not really my thing.

No such thing, though I don't think it's (necessarily) solely lust at first sight, either.
25- What's your favourite book?
Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen. But I think Mansfield Park is better. And Lord of the Rings is a close runner up.

41- What would you call your autobiography?
Meh.
42- What's the longest time you've stayed out of the country/where?
