Subject: Getting to Know You
NAME: Major Sam Carter, PhD. *Not* Samantha, Sammie, or any variation thereof, thank you very much.
SEX: Yes, pl... uh, Female. (God that's such an old joke.)
HOME: Colorado Springs, Colorado, North America, Earth, the Milky Way...
HEIGHT: 5'9".
HAIR: Blonde and short. Easy to maintain, but when it's bad, it's very *very* bad. Man I miss having long hair.
EYES: Blue.
HOW ARE YOU TODAY?: Fine, thanks. The hangover's pretty much gone.
WHAT COLOUR PANTS ARE YOU WEARING?: Green camouflage. I prefer blue cammo.
CAN YOU JUGGLE?: No but Colonel O'Neill keeps threatening to teach me.
FAVORITE SMELL: Gasoline. Speed-freak.
FAVORITE SOUNDTRACK: Dirty Dancing. Mock all you like. Just don't forget that I can build a machine that will vaporize you in 0.0000000003162 nanoseconds, and then I can travel back in time and make sure you *never* existed. I'm just mentioning.
WHAT WAS THE LAST THING YOU ATE?: Wow, is it that time already? I vaguely remember some nachos yesterday evening...
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE IN 10 YEARS?: Shh. Don't tell the Colonel I'm after his job.
WORST FEELING IN THE WORLD: Screwing up in a way that affects someone else.
BEST FEELING IN THE WORLD: Achieving the so-called impossible.
WHAT WAS THE FIRST THING YOU THOUGHT THIS MORNING?: "Oh god, I'm never drinking tequila again. Hey, I don't remember owning those curtains..."
IF YOU WERE A CRAYON, WHAT COLOUR WOULD YOU BE?: Sky Blue.
LAST PERSON YOU TALKED TO ON THE PHONE: Colonel O'Neill. He wanted me to fill out this for him. Apparently he thinks I have unlimited time to waste.
WHAT YOU NOTICE FIRST ABOUT THE OPPOSITE SEX: Eyes and hands. Eyes that laugh are my favorite. And nice, strong, tanned hands, with long fingers and neat nails... ooh.
WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE FAIRGROUND RIDE?: Uh... wow, it's been a long time since I went to a fairground. I guess the rollercoaster - most exciting thing there. Nothing comes close to actual flying, though.
FAVORITE SNAPPLE: Kiwi Strawberry. But if they ever bring out a blue one, it'll be my favorite.
FAVORITE SPORT TO WATCH: Daniel-baiting, as perfected by a certain Colonel.
PEN OR PENCIL?: Whiteboard marker.
WHAT YOU'RE NOT: Tense! I don't know how I got that reputation!
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN LOVE?: Oh god yes. Life would be infinitely simpler if I hadn't. But also infinitely less rich.
DESCRIBE YOUR DREAM WEDDING: Something fairly simple. Dress, cake, good friends. Pink roses - I always wanted pink roses. No sudden emergencies.
TATTOOS - WHERE AND WHAT?: I have one. I plead the Fifth as to the details. Need-to-know only.
EAT THE STEMS OF BROCCOLI?: Yes, mom.
DO YOU SLEEP WITH STUFFED TOYS?: No! Who says I do?
CATS OR DOGS?: Cats are my favorite, but I'd be happy with a dog, too.
DO YOU LIKE TO DRIVE?: I love love *love* to drive.
WHAT IS ON YOUR WALLS IN YOUR ROOM?: It's mostly wall-to-wall machinery, computers, that sort of... Oh. You mean the walls in my *house*? ::blushes:: Framed prints, some photos. I don't spend that much time at home.
STAR SIGN: Capricorn. Impulsive, reliable in emergencies, creative, shy but aggressive, trustworthy, jealous, selfish, moody, ambitious, status-conscious, hard-working, kind, dry sense of humor...
DO YOU GET ALONG WITH YOUR PARENTS?: I got along great with my mom. My dad... sometimes. Better in recent years.
FAVORITE FOOD: I'm going to have to go with the obvious and say blue jell-o here.
FAVORITE ALCOHOLIC DRINK: *Not* tequila. Red wine, maybe.
FAVORITE ITEM: My laptop. ::hugs::
LAST MOVIE YOU WATCHED: Aeon Flux. Teal'c's choice.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS WEEKEND?: Possibly going fishing. Or working. I haven't decided yet.
SCARY MOVIES OR HAPPY ENDINGS?: Happy endings. There's usually less bad science in that sort of movie.
WINTER OR SUMMER?: Winter. I love ice skating, woolly hats, gloves and scarves, hot apple and cinnamon drinks, snowball fights...
DO YOU TYPE WITH YOUR FINGERS ON THE RIGHT KEYS?: Yes. Best recorded typing speed? 2365 w.p.m. ::smug:: Of course, that was under the influence of alien technology, but still... And okay, sir, I'll give you a lesson if it'll mean you actually get your reports written on time.
WHAT'S UNDER YOUR BED?: Carpet fluff, the odd science magazine, a couple of novels, one of Schrödinger's old toys, some machinery that I fiddle with when I can't sleep.
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN CONVICTED OF A CRIME?: Not on this planet. Speeding tickets don't count do they?
DO YOU GET MOTION SICKNESS?: Nah. Wouldn't be much of a pilot if I did, would I? I have been known to get Gatesick... but then I fixed the Gate.
HUGS OR KISSES?: Depends who with and under what circumstances. Some people are so good at hugging, you never want them to let you go. But sometimes a kiss would be... nice. ::sigh::
CHOCOLATE OR VANILLA?: Chocolate. I love chocolate. Oh holy Hannah, I've just remembered something I said last night. I *hate* tequila.
CROUTONS OR BACON BITS?: Croutons. On a nice Caesar salad. Can someone *please* explain to the commissary staff that bacon bits aren't part of that recipe?
FAVORITE NUMBER: Pi.
HOW MANY RINGS BEFORE YOU ANSWER THE PHONE?: One. I run. What? I'm just... efficient.
THUNDERSTORMS - COOL OR SCARY?: Cool! I'm a thunderstorm nut.
LAST BOOK YOU READ: 'The Farthest Things In The Universe' - Pasachoff, Spinrad, Osmer, Cheng. It was a good laugh.
WHAT'S YOUR DREAM CAR?: Oh, boy... I have a list. I probably shouldn't get into that right now.
WHAT'S ON YOUR MOUSE PAD?: Aw, man, is this thing set up? Look, it was a present, okay? MacGyver. ::blushes::
FAVORITE TV SHOW?: Er... MacGyver.
IF YOU COULD MEET ANYONE ALIVE, DEAD OR IMAGINARY, WHO WOULD IT BE?: Hm. Fibonacci, perhaps. Or Einstein.
GUYS - WOULD YOU GIVE UP YOUR SHIRT FOR A GIRL?: How about if I ask nicely and flutter my eyelashes? You'd be surprised how often that works. Men are so predictable. Most of 'em, anyway.
IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY JOB YOU WANTED, WHAT WOULD IT BE?: This one! Yay! Go my job!
SAY SOMETHING NICE ABOUT THE PERSON WHO SENT YOU THIS: Janet is my bestest friend ever, she's a star, a great doctor, and I'm glad to know her and to have her watching my back... I'm not very good at giving compliments.
WHO ON THE LIST IS LEAST LIKELY TO RESPOND TO THIS EMAIL?: Daniel 'cause I know he's busy.
