001: What are your nick-names?
I've had a few over the years.. but for the last decade or so I guess I've just been Kris. I have been Pader, Cooler and Grinder. My grandma used to get away with calling me her "Little Krissy" HUSH! and well, I allow mom to use tifir.
002: How do you style your hair?
Probably don't.. I choose easy.
003:What's new in your life right now?
My lovely new bed!
004: How many colours are you wearing right now?
Two.. unless you consider shades of the same color. Grey socks, grey shorts, pale marine green t-shirt with darker sage green ringer.
005: Are you an introvert or an extrovert.
Dunno. Largely depends on the situation.
006: What was the last book you read?
Downtown Owl, Chuck Klosterman
007: Do you daydream a lot?
I'd say I'm a focused daydreamer. I have a hard time shutting down my mind alot of the time.
008: What's the weather like now?
Perfect. I have never lived in a place with better weather than Oakland.
009: Is there anything that has made you unhappy these days?
The way my brother's current situation makes me unhappy and worried.
010:Where was the most memorable meal you ever had?
A 2am, early fall, drunken feast of self caught Alaskan King Crab. Without a license we pulled 6 giant sea bugs from beneath a pier on the spit using balled up fishing line stuffed little bits of meat to attract our dinner. Soon to eat like kings, we boiled our catch in an enormous pot of water over a raging bonfire. We were young, broke and hungry. We dined sitting on the sandy beach of the Homer spit under a magical sky of northern lights. Never since have I had a meal so delicious or memorable. 1994 largely defined the way I live today. I have fantasized about living in Homer Alaska ever since.
011: How long does it actually take to get ready in the morning?
About a half hour in a pinch 45 min is a nicer pace.
012: What websites do you visit daily?
LJ, Gmail, Flickr, Facebook, Gizmodo, Mint
013: What classes are your taking right now?
Currently taking a two week course on my company's next gen software.
014: Do you like to clean?
Nope, so it costs me.
015: What the last song stuck in your head?
Art Teacher by Rufus Wainwright has been rattling around my noggin many mornings this past year for some reason. It's the story I think.. plus, I love the melody. The opening line.. "There I was.. in uniform. Staring at the art teacher" just sticks in my head.
016: What's the last movie you saw?
The Wrestler, a matinee just yesterday.
017: What hobby would you like to take up if money/time/ability were no obstacle?
moving pictures
018: What is one of your favorite lyrics in a song ever?

I tend to look a little farther forward than that, although I'm trying my best to enjoy the present more these days.
Not calling for participation from anyone in particular, just hope 8 of you do it too. :)
