the alphabet meme
Swiped from merkuria_lyn and vonnielake:
A - Act your age: 29
B - Boyfriend: Nope. More to the point, no girlfriend.
C - Chore you hate: All of them. Especially cleaning the bathroom.
D - Dad's name: Thomas.
E - Essential make-up item: Eyeliner. That's "essential" as in "only."
F - Favourite actress: Hmmm. Don't really have one. I get hooked on characters more than actors.
G - Gold or silver: Silver.
H - Hometown: East Lansing, Michigan. I'm more attached to the Midwest as a region than to a particular town, actually.
I - Instruments you play: Piano, I suppose, although it's been so long that we probably shouldn't test that theory in the presence of others.
J - Job title: Professional Nerd.
K - Kids: A thousand gallons of No, with a Not Ever chaser.
L - Living arrangements: Nice apartment, shared with two marvelous cats.
M - Mum's name: Judith.
N - Number of people you've slept with: Too many or not enough, depending on whether or not my mother's doing the assessment.
O - Overnight hospital stays: One, for two nights.
P - Phobia: Leaving the stove on and burning down the house. Wait, does it count as a phobia if it's a rational and well-founded fear?
Q - Quote you like: One? Just one? Oh fine. "All memory is a house under rain." - The Blue Aeroplanes, "What It Is"
R - Religious affiliation: Post-Episcopalean; practicing agnostic.
S - Siblings: One pretty cool younger brother.
T - Time you wake up: 6:30 or 7:00 a.m., though not by choice.
U - Unique habit: Having friends over every Sunday night for homemade pizza and two episodes of BtVS.
V - Vegetable you refuse to eat: Brussels sprouts. They're like tiny cabbages. It's unnatural. I like my cabbages cabbage-sized (and preferably turned into saurkraut, because yum).
W - Worst habit: Procrastination.
X - X-rays you've had: Basic dental x-rays; a few chest x-rays (to check for tuberculosis, of all things).
Y - Yummy food you make: Um ... most of them? At the moment I'm especially enamored of my double-chocolate chip cookies with oat bran and rum.
Z - Zodiac sign: Aquarius.
