Memery
Yeah, I know, it's the first time I've posted here since March and all I'm putting up is a meme. I'm not quitting the journal, just not feeling like posting lately. So, here's your meme.
1. Name: Nikita Nopants (there is no way I am printing my real name anywhere on the internet if I can avoid it.)
2. Birthday: It's in May
3. Where do you live: Earth, most of the time.
4: What are you studying/What are you working as: Currently I'm a stay-at-home writer, which is frighteningly similar to being unemployed.
5. What makes you happy: Bipolar disorder, sometimes. (Those of you who get this, feel free to comment with groans.)
6. What are you listening to now/have listened to last: Vince Neil on my iPod. Now the song has changed to Alice Cooper's "Bed of Nails." The random pile of music CDs I have on my computer desk right now includes Putumayo's albums "Latin Reggae" and "Paris" which are both world music, go figure, and "Free to Be...You and Me" by Marlo Thomas and Friends. Also, something titled simply "Past Life Regression." I don't know why.
7. What is particularly good/bad about my LJ: Good = Well, when I do post, I write honestly. Bad = Oh, probably the lack of updates. I haven't written in my LJ since March. Used to at least try for once a month, and before that it was every few days or so. Not so much anymore.
8. An interesting fact about you: Um...can I get back to you on this one?
9. Are you in love/have a crush at the moment: Nope
10. Favorite place to be: Someplace near water. Lake, ocean, river, what-have-you. (Ideally, there would be no bugs or other people, but I'd settle for just no bugs.)
11. Favorite lyric: "So, life is a simulation indeed/so surmised the simulated me" from 'The Pixels of the Universe' by Benj and Jeremy, http://www.request-a-song.com/
12. Best time of the year: Currently I can find good things to say about all seasons, but anytime it's warm enough out to hang around outside is good.
13. Weirdest food you like: I'm going to have to go with the chocolate covered bacon here. I've tried some weirder things than that, but I usually hate them. (Example: sea urchin sushi.)
14. Contact info/twitter: You can find me here, or on Facebook under the name Nikita Nopants. I do not Twitter, nor do I post my phone number online.
RECOMMEND
1. A film: "Crazy People" starring Dudley Moore and Paul Reiser.
2. A book: Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels. So far I haven't found one I didn't like.
3. A song: "Song Inside My Head" by the Arrogant Worms.
4: A band: Matthew Sweet. (Okay, he's not a band, but he's good.)
FANDOM
1. Favorite Fandom: I don't get into fan communities and stuff.
2. OTP/OT3: I don't know what this means.
3. Icon/Fic Journal: Also no.
PLUS
1. One thing you like about me: I love having another fiction writer to talk to about the craft of writing and about being creative and artistic in general, and that you can be creative and artistic without going off the deep end.
2. Two things you like about yourself: I'm going to go with creativity and sense of humor here.
3. Put this in your lj/dw so I can tell you what I think of you? Um...sure?
