1. Were you named after anyone?
Of course. I was named after a sweet old lady my mother nursed late into her pregnancy. She was a "dear thing", apparently. She had reverted back to her childhood. Appropriate, no? I imagine she smelled like cabbage old lady.
2. When was the last time you cried?
Last night, but only coz I screamed the C word at a bus so loud my eye balls almost burst out of my head. Of course, I'm thankful they decided to tear up instead.
3. Do you like your handwriting?
I do. Especially when it's legible. It reminds me of my mothers, but "joined up" writing - not print.
4. What is your favorite lunch meat?
Oh! That spicy beef stuff you can get from the supermarket. But it's super expensive, so if I'm really, really lucky, I'll get plain ol' ham.
5. Do you have kids?
It's hard enough to look after myself! But ask me again in a couple of months, life's always full of surprises.
6. If you were another person, would you be friends with you?
I consider myself a "sometimes friend". Like a "sometimes food". Rich, addictive, but only appropriate in a well-balanced diet. But yes, I'd add me to my fruit and vege.
7. Do you use sarcasm?
Not at all.
8. Do you still have your tonsils?
Yes. They're not worth much on the black market.
9. Would you bungee jump?
Hell yes! If I was all rigged up by a professional. I'm looking to sky dive for my 21st. But then, that's not bungee jumping.
10. What is your favorite cereal?
Has to be a tie with Fruit Loops (holiday cereal) and Nutri-Grain (Comfort food).
11. Do you untie your shoes when you take them off?
Only when I have to. I prefer to not have laces dangling everywhere when they're in my shoe pile. Yes, I have a pile.
13. What is your favorite ice cream?
Chocolate. If we're getting specific, the Tip Top Chocolate ice cream in the 2L container. I'm a simple girl with (reasonably) simple wants and needs. Easy to please and all that jazz.
14. What is the first thing you notice about people?
Their teeth. I'm shorter than most and have this thing about straight teeth. It's not my fault they're at eye level and my parents subjected me to years of pain so that mine now sit off centre.
15. Red or pink?
Red. It's much more decisive. Certain. Permanent. Strong.
16. What is the least favourite thing about yourself?
Oh, the list! Ummmm, first thing that comes to mind? Freaky toe.
17. Who do you miss the most?
Right now? Zach.
18. Do you want everyone to complete this list?
I'd read it if they do, but I probably won't notice if they don't.
19. What colour pants and shoes are you wearing?
Light blue with white, pale pink and purple hearts. They're my PJ pants, leave me alone.
21. What are you listening to right now?
General traffic noises.
22. If you were a crayon, what coluor would you be?
Lime green. A "sometimes colour". And looks fantastic wrapped up in a deep purple.
23. Favorite smells?
Toilet bleach (shut up), clothes straight out of the dryer, boy hugs (I swear they have their own smell).
24. Who was the last person you talked to on the phone?
Ah, a woman responding to an email I sent at work.
25. Do you like the person who sent this to you?
I stole it from a stranger.
26. Favourite sports to watch?
Watch? No thanks, if I'm not playing it then any game will only ever really be background noise.
27. Hair colour?
Naturally, black. Currently my hair is kinda... splotchy. Bit o' red here, bitta black there. Dark Brown, reddish in parts in the light I guess.
28. Eye colour?
Green. Brown. Hazel. Depends on mood, the lighting of a room, and what I'm wearing.
29. Do you wear contacts?
No point, my glasses are the weakest reading glasses in the city. If not the world.
30. Favorite food?
A good mac 'n' cheese. Like Cherry used to make. Yum!
31. Scary movies or happy endings?
Happy all the way. The mushier, the better.
32. What colour shirt are you wearing?
Black singlet. But there's enough fluff from the dryer to count grey as a colour...
32. Last movie you watched?
Star Trek.
34. Summer or winter?
Winter, but only because I love woollen cardigans, bright scarves and hand knitted anything.
35. Hugs or kisses?
Hugs. Definitely. But one can't turn down a good kiss either.
37. Most likely to respond?
Whomever is as bored as I am. Maybe one of the random fuckers that keep adding me will give it a whirl. In English, please.
38. Least likely to respond?
The majority.
39. What book are you reading now?
I've got about 3 on the go, but I won't admit to any of them. (read: chick-lit and trash)
40. What is on your mouse pad?
I don't have one. I FLY IN THE FACE OF DANGER!
41. What did you watch on t.v. last night?
Nothing! It was dad's birthday last night so we went to the movies.
42. Favorite sounds?
Rain on the roof. Kids laughing (adults just sound obnoxious). Loud clocks when I'm trying to get to sleep.
43. Rolling Stones or Beatles?
You want me to choose?! I refuse!
44. What is the farthest you've been away from home?
Ummmm South Australia. Not far enough, obviously.
45. Do you have a special talent?
Sure, but I'll charge by the hour to show you.
46. Where were you born?
Literally half way between where I live now and where I lived at the beginning of the year.
47. Whose answers are you looking forward to getting back?
Anyone really. I'm nosey, what can I say?
....47 Questions? WTF? Random number.
