Stolen from lowriseflare and petragem:

TOP 5 ME! Books, art, culture, politics, music, fandom stuff, movies, television, anything. Ask as many as you'd like. Be vague. Be specific. I don't care if it's mundane or off the wall.

Help! Entertain me while I try to decide whether I should write a bunch of TWD sex or clean my entire house:) I'll Top 5 you back.

Top 5 upbeat 80s songs! Top 5 things that made you love Hillary Clinton! Top 5 things you wish HoGo would do with S8 of 24!

You could alternate between writing TWD sex and cleaning your house (maybe it'd help to clean during times when you get stuck)? :P

[leigh57]

WHAT, omg Top 5 upbeat '80s songs. Okay, I will try

[century_fox]

Such great choices for 80s songs! :D I love everything you said about Hillary, and also about 24- I wish at least a few of those things would happen. Fucking HoGo. I hate that part of me is still hopeful about this, despite all logic telling me otherwise.

Top 5 places you'd take someone to eat if they came to NYC to visit you:
1. Food Gallery 32 (Korean food) or my favorite Korean restaurant in Flushing
2. S'mac (mac and cheese)
3. SPICE Thai restaurant
4. Frozen yogurt- most likely either 16 Handles (especially since I work at one of the locations), Red Mango, or the place near my house, 32 Degrees Froyo Lounge.
5. Seva Indian Restaurant
(Honorable mention to Fatty's Cafe because they have amazing mojitos)

Top 5 songs you can't stop listening to right now:
1. "Wild" - Nine Muses
2. "Nillili Mambo" - Block B
3. Trick (Typical) - SNSD
4. "What's Your Name?" - 4minute (and their entire newest mini album, tbh)
5. "Sweet Dreams" - Wonder Girls

Top 5 things you spend too much money on:1. food

[leigh57]

I am actually SO angry with my brain for not being able to just realize that it's going to suck, I'm going to hate it, they're going to do everything possible to make Renee yet another casualty of war and in absolutely no way special, and probably Jack's life will still end up shitty because they want to turn it into a limited edition franchise called 12. OY, I wish I had ten million percent fewer feelings.

GAH, now I want frozen yogurt and Thai food. Did I miss that you were working at the yogurt place? How did I miss that? Mmmmmmmmmm, awesome.

Damn, I bet that even if you spend a lot of money on it, the metrocard is worth it in the end, right? I mean that's basically how you get everywhere, isn't it?

I'll have to listen to some of your songs when I'm sitting in one place for more than ten seconds at a time. I'm also pondering who names their food establishment "Fatty's Cafe." AHAHAHAHAHA.

[petragem]

That is quite the decision you're facing! For the meme: top 5 wintery things and top 5 tv moments you'd like to rewrite.

[leigh57]

LOL, tough choice, right? I actually had one of those days where I didn't get enough of anything done, but at least I did a little of most things, so there is that.

OH MAN, TOP 5 WINTERY THINGS!

1. Blasting the Christmas tunes 24/7 the second Thanksgiving dinner is over.
2. Getting the Christmas tree. BONUS IF IT SNOWS.
3. The way the air smells at night when I go to shut the garage door, all sharp and freezing and pure.
4. All of my favorite cheesy Christmas movies, AND I HAVE SO MANY. But most especially It's a Wonderful Life, The Ref, and the George C. Scott version of A Christmas Carol.
5. Watching the kids open stuff Christmas day:)

DUDE, I am gonna have to think for a minute on the TV moments I'd like to rewrite (although everybody knows the first one;). But for you, here are a couple:

Top 5 things you wish you had more time to do
Top 5 guys guaranteed to make you swoon

[petragem]

Ohhh the smell of winter air and bonus snow and christmasy things! Those are just great. Like a super weirdo, I only saw It's a Wonderful Life in its entirety either this winter or possibly last? Turns out it's kind of a classic! And dude, take your time on that other question. Obviously I know your first thing, but I couldn't even guess at the others

[leigh57]

What you said about doing nothing makes complete and TOTAL sense, absolutely. I wish I were as good as you sound about squeezing in productivity. I tend to have sort of two modes -- wildly productive about everything and lazy as shit. Unfortunately, the former strikes more often than the latter, heh. And augh a triathlon huh? That is hardcore

[marinw]

The first 5 executive orders you would make as POTUS.

[leigh57]

Well this is a tough one, mainly because I don't know what one is allowed to do with executive orders, because although I was a genius in AP Government, I retained that information exactly long enough to pass the AP exam with flying colors. So I'll just take this to mean what would I do if I could just you know, rule the U.S

[marinw]

You have a Super Majority, and can do whatever you want. I should have mentioned that.

Problem is, that's what Obama had on his first term. Running a country is hard.

[leigh57]

Running a country is a bitch. I can't even watch the news right now, because basically, all the crap Obama is dealing with probably means we're going to lose a billion seats in Congress next year. Since I can't fix it, I need to not think about it much for a while.

[cybertoothtiger]

Damn, meetings all day, plus J was home from school (he had to come as my sub-consultant. Fortunately, one of the things we were meeting about was how to make exhibits more interesting to children. LOL.)

Anyway, no doubt too late for top 5 things, but my vote is definitely for writing TWD sex. Despite the icon. (When I say I'm not attached to any of the characters, I mean I am not Jack in love with any of them. I still care about them.)

[leigh57]

Is J sick or did he just have a random school day off? We're smack dab in the middle of all the concerts and end of the year stuff, and I almost forgot that N's big concert is tonight, OY. I mean not that he would have forgotten. It's just another reminder that stuff needs to go into the google calendar as soon as I know about it, LOL.

Argh, TWD sex. I could write an essay on how weird my relationship with that show is. On the one hand, damn I really really want Daryl and Carol to get it on, and I can see ten thousand reasons why that would be hot and fun and angsty and awesome. On the other hand, I'm not sure I could write any of it at ALL.

I'm not Jack in love with any of them either. I'm pretty confident that I won't be Jack in love with anyone ever again. Maybe I should look at the new season of 24 as a gift, because my guess is that if I watch it, I probably will come away being not even Jack in love with Jack anymore. Ugh.
