30 Random Things about me....

1. What is in your left pocket?
My pj pants don't have pocket, but the jeans nearest to me have in the front a little sparkly plastic star and in the back nothing.

2. How much alcohol did you have this weekend?
This weekend? As in the one that only started seven hours ago? Nothing at all, and I won't be having any this week at all. Or last weekend, since it is completely over? Dozens of drinks. I was given a drink when I showed up and my hand wasn't empty for most of the weekend. Hard liquor, mead, wine, you name it, we had it and if we had it, I probably tried it. Minus the beer. Blegh to the beer.

3. Do you eat gas station food?
If I can at all help it, no. I had a very bad experience with a cross between gas station chicken and chili years ago on a cross-country Grey Hound Bus trip where I ended up leaking from both ends for hours. I will only buy packaged things as gas stations now and only rarely. I think the last things I got there were hard boiled eggs and trail mix.

4. Ever drive all night to get to someone?
Yes. Kris, Jenn & David, Amtgard.

5. Is Napoleon Dynamite actually a good movie?
It's cute in a dropped-on-your-head-as-a-baby fashion, which would usually mean I'd dismiss it completely out of the ball park of existing in movies I plan to remember so I can talk about them sensibly. The dance on the stage is what saved this movie for me. Not because it's cool or good looking, but because it's one of those moments that testifies to how far friends (in the real world) would go for each other if there was need.

Good? Yes, maybe, or so-so. Amazing? No. Going to see it again? No.

6. Do people that scream into their cell phones annoy you?
I think they amuse me more than annoy me, because obviously they haven't learned anything about volume switches in the digital age. Your volume switch makes it so you can hear them easily and not feel the need to shout into the phone. Their volume switch makes it possible for it to sound like you are talking normal even if you are screaming into the phone.

7. What color underwear do you have on?
Pink and red in silky.

8. Do you have hardwood or carpet in your house?
Carpeting with linoleum in the kitchen/bathroom/entryway.

9. Do you sit or stand in the shower?
I stand through the whole thing. I've never sat down in a shower before when I wasn't sick and I'm a little curious/disturbed by the idea people have laid down during them.

10. Could you live with roommates?
At present? No. I'm finally owning my space and I don't want to share it. Past? I've had Brinna, Phoenix, Kevin, Christine, Warren and Virginia.

11. How many pair of flip flops do you own?
Ummm.....I think four pairs.

12. Where were you born?
Bexar County, Texas. It actually says that on my birth certificate, because he military based wasn't within the city limits then.

13. What is your drug of choice?
LSD. I haven't touched the stuff in four and half years, but out of all the things I have tried it was my favorite. I liked the body and visual stimuli you get with it, but I wasn't willing to burn holes into my brain, ruin my spine, or make my elderly years fraught with flashbacks. Other than that nothing really.

14. Ever been to rehab/jail?
No, but I've known quite a number who did through Amtgard.

15. Highest level of school completed?
College senior; bound for a Spring 2007 graduation and bearing aspirations on both a Masters and Doctorate.

16. Last time you had a run in with the cops?
Last week.

17. Where do you work? Or go to school? Or are you a bum?
I work often for my ex-boss selling comics and I participate in clinical research every once in a while. I'm going to school full time (which in my head is around twenty-something hours, not twelve) and thus I put all of myself into that. Giving up some things I could have now will seem trivial compared to how far it will bolster me in the future as compared. I'm obsessed with learning and a bit repulsed by those people (even friends) who can't trouble themselves to be self-educated even.

18.) What do you want to be when you grow up?
A teacher. A professor. A wife. A mother. A grandmother. A priestess. A published author. A great friend.

All of these are important goals to me.

19. How cool are you?
Well, seeing as the room is probably set around sixty, pretty cool. Self-effusive.

I'm still learning how cool I might be. Check back with me on this one sometime before I die.

20. Who is number 1 on your top 8?
Catherine, my best friend since the age of one and half.

21. What cell phone service do you have?
I have Sprint. I really don't mind and they haven't recently messed me over the way I hear they have a lot of others. We've had our trouble in the pass, but nothing a good round of "can I talk to your superior" couldn't solve quickly. I would like cheaper, as Cricket and Pocket are now, but I need good toys and service areas.

22. How often do you get on Myspace/LiveJournal?
The first only when I get e-mail updates of someone sending me a letter, requesting to be friended, or leaving a comment. This can be as rare as not happening for weeks. As for the second, I live on here. I get e-mailed stats on my journal, frequently leave my friends page up all day periodically refreshing and reading. Multiple times a day for this one.

23. How many people are on your friends list?
230, which keeps bumping daily as people are re-adding and discovering me. *waves to the brand new people curiously*

24. When did you join MySpace/Livejournal?
The first, no idea at all. The second, January 24, 2001.

25. What kind of car do you drive?
1999 Buick Le Sabre. White with beige leather interior. Electric everything, Cd player. Not as loved as the Intrigue was, but he takes very good care of me so I can't complain. In the shop at present as well because some guy couldn't stop soon enough and plowed into the rear of my car (barely scratching me and causing half of his truck front to fall off), but I'll be getting it back either on Sunday or on Monday morning.

26. What is your dream car?
Silver 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue. Metallica Blue 4-door truck.

27. What is your favorite pets name?
Slylth. My Gardner snake who turned two years old during July. He's long but barely the width of a pencil. I didn't name him per say, like most pets the name just came out of the ether and when prompted he didn't seem to disagree with it.

28. If you could have sex with one celebrity, who would it be?
Really not one of those people who can do the random sex thing. It being some movie-tv fantasy inspired thing doesn't make it any better in my book. I'm already dismissive of anyone who attempts to date me without any sort of rare spark, so I find this idea laudable for me.

29. Last time you broke the law?
When was the last time I was speeding? When the was last time I downloaded something?

30. How long have you been in the state that you live in?
Twenty-one years of my life.

meme, randomness
