13. What is your favourite memory of us?

15. Tell me one odd/interesting fact about you:

1. Your Middle Name: Michael
2. Age: Younger than I look, younger than I feel, but older than I act.
3. Single or Taken: Single, although Colleen would probably contest this
4. Favourite Movie: Howards End
5. Favourite Song or Album: Anything Ralph Vaughan Williams or Mark Knopfler. The Killers for more recent stuff.
6. Favourite Band/Artist: See above
7. Dirty or Clean: My body or my mind? Clean in the former case, dirty in the latter.
8. Tattoos and/or Piercings: None
9. Do we know each other outside of LJ? No
10. What's your philosophy on life? Five parts Christian, three parts Tao, three parts Zen, two parts Jewish, two parts existentialist, two parts pragmatic. tl;dr "mustn't grumble!"
11. Is the bottle half-full or half-empty? The bottle is twice as big as it needs to be.
12. Would you keep a secret from me if you thought it was in my best interest? Of course
13. What is your favourite memory of us? That icon battle that degenerated into you using an icon of a knit Dalek.
14. What is your favourite guilty pleasure? Broiled eel
15. Tell me one odd/interesting fact about you: I have better vision in my left eye than in my right. My left eye is also a few shades lighter.
16. You can have three wishes (for yourself, so forget all the 'world peace etc' malarky) - what are they? To have a publishing house wrapped around my little finger, to be assured that I will have a wife and children some day, and to have a doctorate-level degree.
17. Can we get together and make a cake? Conceivably we could, but in practise probably not.
18. Which country is your spiritual home? Britain mainly, but I also gravitate towards Tibet (pre-Red China), Bhutan, Ireland, Lithuania, and Japan.
19. What is your big weakness? Self-hatred
20. Do you think I'm a good person? Yes
21. What was your best/favourite subject at school? English
22. Describe your accent: Mid-Atlantic, trending towards New England/Canada. Vaguely lilting. Light on Rs, heavy on Ss.
23. If you could change anything about me, would you? Probably not.
24. What do you wear to sleep? It varies from nothing to fully clothed, usually because I either strip completely or go unconscious before I can take anything off.
25. Trousers or skirts? Trousers, obviously, since I'm--you know--male and all.
26. Cigarettes or alcohol? Neither
27. If I only had one day to live, what would we do together? Oh, Hell, I have no idea. Whatever YOU wanted to do.
28. Will you repost this so I can fill it out for you? Sure, why not?
