The ABC Meme
I've stolen this from the lovely willow_wand
A - ACCENT: I'm told I have a slight Chicago accent, but I don't hear it.
B - BOOBS: *looks down* Yep.
C - CHORE YOU HATE: Most chores, but they need to be done, so at some point, after a great deal of grumbling about it, I'll take care of them. I do hate for things to be messy and dirty, but I'm slow to get moving to correct it.
D - DAD'S NAME: Erling
E - ESSENTIAL MAKE-UP ITEM: I don't wear much make-up, but when I do I've discovered that I really like the mascara primer by Clinique.
F - FAVORITE PERFUME: Again, I don't wear much perfume, either. I tend to sweat it off at work, and in the summer I don't want to attract the bugs. I've taken quite a liking to the White Citrus scent from Bath & Body Works, though.
G - GOLD OR SILVER: Depends on the outfit. There are certain colors and styles that look better with one than the other. I do own more yellow gold, however.
H - HOMETOWN: Glenview, Illinois USA
I - INSOMNIA: Infrequently, and usually when I have way too much on mind.
J - JOB TITLE: Visual Merchandising Assistant.
K - KIDS: Sadly, no.
L - LIVING ARRANGEMENTS: I rent a room from my mother.
M - MOM'S NAME: Phyllis--though she goes by Candi. If you call her Phyllis, I'll look around the room wondering who you're talking to.
N - NUMBER OF TIMES YOU WANT TO SLAP SOME SENSE INTO SOMEONE: You think I can actually keep track of a number? Honestly, I don't think I can count that high...and I did pass kindergarten.
O - OVERNIGHT HOSPITAL STAYS: Three...When I had surgery on my elbow, when I had my blood clots, and when I had my second knee surgery.
P - PHOBIA: Probably quite a few more than I'm aware of. I do hate bugs...spiders and centipedes in particular.
Q - QUEST: Security in my future. I'm terrified of dying alone and penniless.
R - RELIGIOUS AFFILIATION: Raised Presbyterian, but at this point I'd just say non-denominational Christian.
S - SIBLINGS: One brother.
T - TIME YOU WAKE UP: When I have to.
U - UNNATURAL HAIR COLOURS YOU'VE WORN: I guess some of the shades of red I had could be considered unnatural.
V - VEGETABLE YOU REFUSE TO EAT: Sweet Potato, beets.
W - WORST HABIT: Oh, lots of them. Probably my lack of punctuality, and I beat myself up over it much more than others do.
X - X-RAYS YOU'VE HAD: Hmmm...my little finger when I broke it...my back when I wore a brace...my chest both when I had my blood clots and more recently when I was sick and they thought I might have pneumonia...my knee...and my back again, last week.
Y - YUMMY FOODS YOU MAKE: Unnamed pasta dish with tomatoes and bacon, peach jello salad thing, and that's about it.
Z - ZANY QUIRK: Not letting John help me with my laundry...I have a certain way I fold, hang, etc. and it drives him nuts.
