1. What curse word do you use the most?
Probably fuck? I don't know, whatever comes out. I don't swear that much, just when I want to emphasize the importance of my words.

2. Do you own an iPod?
Yessss. I have a black iPod classic named Sloane. I enjoy it immensely.

3. What person on your flist do you talk to the most?
Ummm, I don't really know. It used to be illusory_thrill but she now has a life so she's not around as much as she used to be. fuyu_ginga is around a lot so we usually have a bunch of awesome, random short conversations where we say like 5 things and then forget about each other for a couple of hours.

4. What time is your alarm clock set to?
5:00 AM for school days, 7:00 AM for work days.

5. Do you still remember the first person you kissed?
Um, yes, because such a person does not exist. I used to practice on my bedposts, does that count?

6. Do you remember where you were on 9/11/01?
I don't know where I was when it happened, but I was in 6th grade and it was probably English class (although I was in Science class when we were told about it, and I totally remember where I was sitting. Even though I kind of had no clue what the fuck was going on; being 11 years old I didn't really know what the hell the World Trade Center was).

7. Would you rather take the picture or be in the picture?
I honestly love both because I really care whether or not a picture is aesthetically pleasing, which is usually not the case in pictures people take for facebook or whatever. But I love being in pictures.

8. What was the last movie you watched?
I don't even know. I watched National Treasure 2 yesterday; that might have been it. Since then I've been watching episodes of Studio 60.

9. Do any of your friends have children?
None of my RL friends, but a few people on my flist do.

10. Has anyone anyone ever called you lazy?
I hope so, because it's a very accurate statement and they would be remiss not to.

11. Do you ever take medication to help you fall asleep?
No, but I wish I could; it would probably be more efficient than watching TV.

12. What CD is currently in your CD player?
I haven't used a CD player in a million years, so...I have no clue.

13. Do you prefer regular or chocolate milk?
No milk whatsoever. This may explain why I'm 5'2'' and plagued with a major vitamin D deficiency.

14. Has anyone told you a secret this week?
If they did, I probably wasn't listening.

15. When was the last time you had Starbucks?
Late August/early September, at the airport in Chicago.

16. Can you whistle?
A little. Not enough for a song or anything; I have a hard enough time switching between notes.

17. What is the first thing you notice about the opposite sex?
I notice nothing about the opposite sex; I look only to confirm that they are male and then stop paying attention. The first thing I notice about the same sex is their face, and then if their boobs are big enough my eyes will generally be pulled downwards and I'll forget about their face unless they start talking to me. I am a terrible person, yes.

18. What are you looking forward to?
Having a career. Going to school somewhere else. Maybe seeing Allison Janney in 9 to 5 when it moves to Broadway. Finishing this paper.

19. Did you watch cartoons as a child?
Yeah...not a lot, but a couple things on Nickelodeon. Mostly Rugrats, because a lot of the other ones involved the characters being mauled to death or cut in half by the end of the episode.

20. Do you own any band t-shirts?
I don't. I'm not really a fan of t-shirts in general.

21. What will you be doing in one hour?
Hopefully working on this paper. I will also be...an hour into The Emperor's New Groove.

22. Is anyone in love with you?
This guy at work told me that one of the other guys who works there is into me, but I think he was either screwing with me or trying to persuade me to be heterosexual.

23. What was the last song you heard?
I don't really know. I'm too lazy to check my last.fm.

24. Last time you cried?
Like an hour ago, probably. I cry at all movies, shows, youtube videos, songs, commercials, etc. So that's really just an estimate.

25. Are you on a desktop computer or a laptop?
I am on my fabulous laptop, which I have aptly named Gilda (I think this is appropriate in that it is a PC and it has a bunch of dysfunctional moments and will probably only last a few years, but I'm determined to enjoy it while it lasts. Which is offensive, but true.)

26. Are you currently wanting any piercing or tattoos?
Not really, no. I have my ears pierced and that's enough for me.

27. What's the weather like?
It's unnecessarily cold. Right now that's about it.

28. Would you ever date a girl/guy covered in tattoos?
Probably not. I mean, I'm not saying I judge based on appearance, but typically someone who has a worldview that leads to a bunch of tattoos doesn't fit with mine.

29. What did you do before this?
I've been taking notes for the super-boring paper I have to write, and I took a couple of opportunities to bitch at my parents because they were really bothering me.

30. When is the last time you slept on the floor?
About four years ago. In our old house, our bathroom had heated tiles, so when my mom would wake me up really early for no reason, I would go into the bathroom and sleep on the floor for a while.

31. How many hours of sleep do you need to function?
It really depends what you mean by "function." I usually have to do a million different things to keep myself awake in class if I've gotten less than 8 hours of sleep, and sometimes my efforts fail me if I've gotten less than 5 hours.

32. Do you eat breakfast daily?
Yeah, but if I get up really late I usually just go ahead with lunch.

33. Are your days fast-paced?
It really depends on the day, but right now most of them aren't.

34. What did you do last night?
I don't really remember.

35. Do you use sarcasm?
Exclusively.

36. How old will you be turning on your next birthday?
19. God, I feel so old. I'll be 50 in no time.

37. Are you picky about spelling and grammar?
Extremely.

38. Have you ever been to Six Flags?
I've been there twice. Once for camp, and the other time for physics last summer. I'd rather be at home watching TV.

39. Do you get along better with the same sex or the opposite sex?
It depends; typically I'm not a fan of the opposite sex, but when it comes to people my age (particularly at my school) I know all the girls are cooler than me so if I can't be alone, I'll usually gravitate towards the nerdy guys.

40. Do you like mustard?
I don't. I haven't tried it in a long time, but I'm pretty confident that I won't enjoy it.

41. Do you sleep on your side?
Usually. It depends on my mood. Actually, which side I sleep on depends on my mood too.

42. Do you watch the news?
Usually I don't; I find it more convenient to get most of my news on the internet.

43. How did you get one of your scars?
Oh man, STORYTIME. Okay, so, when I was younger, there was this little crack between our driveway and this paved area in front of the porch, and it was set apart by a little piece of metal that ran from one end to the other. Because I was a kid, my parents decided it wasn't safe for me to step on the crack, so they told me I wasn't allowed to; however, I frequently saw them stepping on it, and they failed to provide me with a good reason besides "because I said so" so I decided that I would subvert their authority and step on the crack so I could be cooler and more grown up. So I did, and I tripped over the metal thing and fell on my face, and it was super-traumatic and just a major life failure. I've blocked most of it out, but I'm pretty sure it really sucked, and now I have a little scar underneath my bottom lip. It really bums me out because it's not like a sexy Tina Fey mystery scar and I still have to deal with its existence.

44. Who was the last person to make you mad?
My mom, for thinking it would be cool and funny to pronounce "salad" wrong.

45. Do you like anybody?
I'm pretty infatuated with Helen Mirren right now, but that's about it.

46. What is the last thing you purchased?
Trivial Pursuit: SNL Edition.

helen mirren, gilda radner
