Ganked from mellacita, cleversticks, and probably appearing a few other places, too:
You know how sometimes people on your friend's list post about stuff going on in their life, and all of a sudden you think "Wait a minute? Since when are they working THERE? Since when are they dating HIM/HER? since when???" And then you wonder how you could have missed all that seemingly pretty standard information, but somehow you feel too ashamed to ask for clarification because it seems like info you *should* already know? It happens to all of us sometimes.
Please copy mine below, erase my answers putting yours in their place then post it in your journal! Please elaborate on the questions that would benefit from elaboration! One-word answers seldom help anyone out.
1. First Name: Amy
2. Age: 32
3. Location: Chicago, north side, currently typing from The Fixx
4. Occupation: Student. Office worker. Market research participant. Blocked writer. Bum. I'm taking suggestions.
5. Partner? I swear, I used to have a love life. Don't know what happened to it.
6. Kids: Nope.
7. Brothers/Sisters: Older brother, younger sister.
8. Pets: The Feline Fight Club, featuring Sir Whiz-a-lot (aka "Willy") and Sophie the Scaredy-cat.
9. List the 3-5 biggest things going on in your life:
* School, the kind with tests and grades, for the first time in 10 years.
* Must. Find. Paying. Job.
* Um... I was thinking I might clean my apartment next week.
* Seriously. That's my big news.
10) Where and for what did you go to school for?
Eastern Illinois University, majored in journalism and minored in anthropology. Syracuse University for a grad photography program, which I quit. Currently at Truman College.
11) Parents?
The standard issue heterosexual set, and still, for some reason, married to one another.
12) Who are some of your closest friends?
Do my cats count? No? Some geeks, then, I suppose.
