Gacked from qe2. (And I'd link to her, but my little posting toolbar seems to have vanished. Hmm... I can't make cuts or anything helpful, either. Curioser and curioser
( Read more... )
Since I can't make cuts for some reason, here's my original, as left on qe2's post:
01) Are you currently in a serious relationship? Yes
02) What was your dream growing up? To be a writer. I've sort of managed it.
03) What talent do you wish you had? Managing money.
04) If I bought you a drink, what would it be? Almost certainly a beer, probably an import or microbrew.
05) Favourite vegetable? Carrots, though I'm also fond of peppers, cabbage, onions, garlic, potatoes, asparagus, broccoli, parsnips... basically everything but yams.
06) What was the last book you read? The last one I finished was Strangers in Paradise, Book 1 by Terry Moore; I'm now about 120 pages into Crime and Punishment.
07) What zodiac sign are you? Pisces
08) Any tattoos and/or piercings? What and where? (And why, if you'd like to tell.) Nope. No interest in getting them, either.
09) Worst habit? Sloth.
10) If you saw me walking down the street would you offer me a ride? You? Sure.
11) What is your favorite sport? To watch, college basketball or pro football; to participate in, hiking.
12) Are you naturally optimistic or pessimistic? I try to be the former; I don't always succeed.
13) What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me? Ask you if you had a water bottle.
14) Worst thing to ever happen to you (that you're willing to share here)? Finding the drowned body of a co-worker when I was 15 and working at a day camp.
15) Tell me one weird thing about you. I have never taken a drag off a cigarette or cigar; I am perhaps the only person from North Carolina ever to make that claim.
16) Do you have any pets? One lunkheaded hound dog.
17) What if I showed up at your house unexpectedly? We'd ask you to cook.
18) What was your first impression of me? Scary smart.
19) Clowns: Cute or scary? Neither. Just kind of pathetic and upsetting.
20) If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be? I'd redistribute my belly fat.
21) Would you be my partner in crime or my conscience? Depends on the crime. If it's civil disobedience, I can be both.
22) What colour are your eyes? Brown.
23) Have you ever been arrested? No. (But I wanted to say, "I proceeded to tell her the story of Alice's Restaurant Massacree with full orchestration and five-part harmony..."
24) Soda/beer: Bottle or can? Bottle!
25) If you won $10,000 today, what would you do with it? Pay off credit card debt and slap the rest in savings. Okay, I'd probably blow a few hundred at the bookstore, too.
26) What's your favorite place to hang out? I like coffee shops. They have coffee, and frequently wi-fi.
27) Do you believe in ghosts? I'm an agnostic. I don't DISbelieve in them, but I haven't really got any basis for belief.
28) Favorite thing to do in your spare time? "Spare"?
29) Do you swear a lot? Fuck no.
30) Biggest pet peeve? Deliberate cruelty. That and saying "I could care less."
31) In one word, how would you describe yourself? Atypical.
32) Do you believe in/appreciate romance? Absolutely. Of course, I may not define it the way everyone else does.
33) Favorite and least favorite foods? Favorite? Impossible to say, but "bread" would probably cover it. Least favorite would almost certainly be gelatin.
34) Do you believe in God? Agnostic here, too. I keep the light on for Him, but so far He hasn't come home.
35) Will you repost this so I can fill it out and do the same for you? Oh, what the heck. Why not?
