And aren't those just lovely parting words above by Breaking Benjamin, eh? *grins*
I have been so overly happy the last couple of days that I forgot to post here. My mom, after an exact month in the hospital was released this past Monday afternoon!!! *spastically dances, trips and falls on face*
Really, I meant to do that. >__>
We're so happy I cannot even begin to tell you. She still needs a LOT of physical therapy to regain the strength in her weak muscles, but she's getting there. :DDDD I am in the mood to write again, so I think I'll start back on finishing the next chapter of Waiting. Here's hoping that goes well.
I gacked this meme from the lovely
Haylzee so let's commence:
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:
1) What are your grandmothers' maiden names?
My maternal grandmother was Burkitt. Mildred Burkitt. Paternal grandmother was Elizabeth Lewis.
2) How do you style your hair?
I am mixed black (Carribbean) and West Indian (from India) so if I don't immediately put my hair on rollers after washing it, it waves up something fierce. This tends to frustrate me because it's pretty long and very wild. I tend to put my hair on big rollers and get it straight with a bit of curl that way OR I attack my hair with a flat iron. I can completely commiserate with TH's Georg Listing. LOL!
What's the last book you read?
Demon Eyes by: L.H. Maynard & M.P.N. Sims
What colour shirt are you wearing now?
Shirt? What shirt? I'm wearing an original wrap creation of tin foil and yellow smiley stickers.
Are you an introvert or extrovert?
Is there something beyond the term introvert? Oh yeah. Recluse. I'm somewhere between introverted and reclusive. I like dark, quiet places best and I think I worry my mother so she constantly tries to draw me out of my room a lot. I took a test once and it said I had a borderline personality disorder. Huh. But, I'm not a complete freak. I get weird sometimes and get extroverted for tiny bits at a time. I can chatter away to strangers then, no problem. But other than that, I usually just stick to my current family and few best friends.
Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer?
Neither. I'll have a rum and coke please.
Who is more famous than they deserve?
Paris Hilton (don't get me started), Lindsay Lohan (who admittedly started her career off great and then went stupid), Perez Hilton (the little troll) and the ubiquitous annoying bane of my existence, Katy Perry. Katy, Katy, Katy. Where do I start? No one says you have to like Tokio Hotel, but the constant digs at them while they usually remain gracious to you really bugs. SHUT. UP.
Who was the last person you hugged?
My sexy dreadlocked guitarist twin brother who...wait, wait. I'm sorry. I was pretending to be someone else. Um...my mother. I've been hugging her constantly to the point where I think she's ready to go back to the hospital. :D
What's your current fandom/obsession/addiction?
Tokio Hotel is first definitely. Followed by Harry Potter and anything Let The Right One In or Chuck related. I also dabble in Supernatural and anything X-men related as well.
What was the last thing you ate today?
Soup my dad made.
How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?
If I have somewhere important to go, then an hour or a little over. If I'm just running to the bank or the store, 15-30 minutes.
What websites do you visit daily?
Tokio Hotel Fiction, Livejournal (various places), Stardoll (what? It's addictive!), Yahoo and my email.
What's the last movie you watched? Either in the cinema or at home.
Saw IV. I was free! Free I tell you! I watched up to part 3 with
cluelessgrrl a.k.a. known as "T" and we were like: "We're done." But I go to Blockbuster and the guy behind the counter was cute and he was asking me if I saw part 4 and started telling me "You have to see it! It explains so much!" So yeah, I let him talk me into seeing it. Apparently if a guy is cute I'll become his bitch. *shakes head*
Do you like to clean?
Who do I look like?
What time is your usual bedtime?
I am nocturnal to a fault. Last "night" I went to bed at 8:30 a.m. I got laid off, so that's why I am able to do this.
How many cell phones have you owned and which brands were they?
First one was a pre-paid Nokia. Then it was a regular Nokia. Then a cool looking Motorola which then went to a Samsung model. After that, there were two T Mobile Samsungs--one of which was the Samsung Beat which I adored--and now there's some Jitterbug model my dad went and got for emergency uses only.
What is your favourite weather?
I prefer fall and winter--but I prefer it to be cool and the sun is out. I don't like cold and snowing/raining. Although, snow is pretty cool here in Texas since we don't get it much. :D
Favourite language?
I have to say that I am appreciating the German guys language a LOT more.
Where would you go if you could afford it?
First I would like to find my friend, Terri's, spine because she's obviously lost that and her common sense for all the bullshit she lets her bastard husband put her through. So I'm thinking since none of us has seen said spine in, say, about three years now, it's probably jetted off to some really remote place, you know? Secondly I would like to visit Ireland, England and Germany. There are hot men in all of those places that I need to see.
I can't do these memes. I always start babbling. :(
