(no subject)
for the record, i decided to play the survey before i even reached the end of mitchie's telling me i had to. so here it is:
1. Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, and find line 4.
"respectively, with behavior and grammar. Parole is verbal activity: speaking, writ-"
this is in my brand new book The Linguistics Wars by Randy Allen Harris
2. Stretch your left arm out as far as you can.
okay. into the wall.
3. What is the last thing you watched on TV?
well, if computerized tv counts, star trek tng.
4. Without looking, guess what time it is:
1:00
5. Now look at the clock. What is the actual time?
1:03
6. With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?
some cars. that's about it.
7. When did you last step outside? What were you doing?
i just got home from schools.
8. Before you started this survey, what did you look at?
the guardian
9. What are you wearing?
lloyd's yellow am app polo shirt and a green v-neck sweater, and jeans
10. Did you dream last night?
probs.
11. When did you last laugh?
in class, i think.
12. What is on the walls of the room you are in?
molding.
14. What do you think of this quiz?
it's actually sort of lame. there's nothing exciting or controversial or even dirty.
15. What is the last film you saw?
i really, truly don't know. it might have been wedding crashers (which is surprisingly awesome, by the way), but i guess really it was chicago. my sister watches that non-stop and i don't think i've seen a movie since i was home at christmas time.
16. If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy?
a house. a new wardrobe. a saab. and a new computer. (yes, and books. obv.)
17. Tell me something about you that I don't know:
i'm super grossed out by mayonnaise. also by tuna. so tuna salad is like the most revolting thing in my universe. meanwhile, chicken is my favorite food (other than chocolate). so chicken salad, though less inherently disgusting, is much more spiritually painful for me than tuna salad, because my favorite food is being severely and gratuitously contaminated and turned into my most hated food. i really am that crazy.
18. If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do?
ban religion. and i'm not copying dkatz here, this is my spirit dream.
19. Do you like to dance?
only when i'm in the mood.
20. George Bush:
is in the way of my spirit dream.
21. Imagine your first child is a girl, what do you call her?
i can't pick out a first name without a matching last name.
22. Imagine your first child is a boy, what do you call him?
same. it's an insurmountable problem.
23. Would you ever consider living abroad?
i do live abroad. i would do it again. but it has its drawbacks.
24. What do you want God to say to you when you reach the pearly gates?
"too bad about the spirit dream, eh?"
25. 4 people who must also do this in THEIR journal:
please, like i care. i'll say lloyd, just because i know he won't.
i had other things to post about, but i don't know what they were. nicole out.
