1. victorian architecture. I think victorian architecture is one of the most beautiful building styles. It gives a house such a lovely character with all the beautiful colors and details. I have always dreamed that if i had the money, I'd buy up lots of run down Victorians and fix them up again.

2. thunderstorms soooo scary. some childhood scars left on my brain i guess. Thunderstorms conjure up the memory of fleeing along with my 4th grade class through the stairwell to get to the school's basement...looking up and seeing that the stairwell had no roof! Too scary.

3. whiskey. heehee. when I saw this one, it still just seems surprising. I don't really know why. Maybe I grew up thinking whiskey drinkers were hardened truck drivers, cowboys and old southern women. lol. But then i remembered that WONDERFUL whiskey you shared with me at Summerland. It was great!

4. gormenghast. i have no clue what this is.

5. hmm...i can't think of one.

Hahah, me too! I usually get pegged for a wine drinker. And I used to be one. Yeah, Tullamore Dew is awesome... it's so nice and not harsh like some others. I think it's better straight from the bottle, too. It seems to change flavor when it hits the air and sits in a glass.

gormenghast.

It's a very strange trilogy of books written in the mid-20th century by Mervyn Peake... the prose is extraordinary, it's as if Dickens wrote fantasy. Odd and interesting characters, strangely offbeat yet strangely moving. There's a miniseries of it, too, I think done by the BBC. Not as good as the books, but still interesting.

Atticus Finch is like my dad, if my dad weren't sick (depression, anxiety, codependence).

sexy!sally

Hahaha, a friend of mine recently played Sally in a production of "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown" and she has a beautiful figure. The dress they gave her to wear was VERY short and she wore spanky pants under it. She called this escapade Sexy!Sally and I was amused, so I put it in my interests.

color

Oh heck yeah!

I don’t like sulamith wulfing. Much scarier than Hubert Cumberdale.

lolz whatveer

rather the fact that you didn't list it as cheeses instead. It sounds so much more European that way.

You are so right. I'm adding cheeses.

I don’t understand warwick goble, but I really like the name.

Isn't it a great name? Warwick Goble would make a good band name, in fact. He was an artist/illustrator from around the turn of the century, mostly children's books:

The image in my icon with this post is his too.

One thing that's not on your interest list but should be is going to eleven.

Hmmmm, you're right. You go to eleven.

Many things, but I'll go with turrets. I would love to have one of my very own where I could hide away and read :-)

2. Pick one thing from my interest list you don’t like and tell me why.

Not a fan of scotch.

3. Pick one thing from my interest list you were surprised to see there and tell me why.
I think most of them actually fall in two categories: 1. things that make sense or I have heard you mention or 2) things I have no idea who or what they are. Which is cool, 'cause I love to learn about new things :-D

4. Pick one thing from my interest list you don’t understand and I’ll explain it to you.
chronarchy's harem- sounds intriguing..what's that all about?

5. Pick one thing that’s not on my interest list but you think it should be there.
Stevie Nicks?

Heh, if someone told me a few years ago that I would drink scotch and like it, I would have passed out. I thought all hard liquor was disgusting. Ah, those were the innocent days...

Chronarchy's harem... heh. You should come to Summerland and find out. chronarchy is like an ADF rock star, for some reason. I use the term humorously because I do not join the melee of females following him around. But I think he once said I could be in his harem, so I said okay, or something like that. It tickled me to make it an interest.

Stevie! You are so right!

HAHAAA! I was trying to think how to make you look, and then this meme came along which I knew would do the trick. hahaha!

I can only find a single thing right now and that is whiskey. I do not drink, ever.Do you not like alcohol, or do you avoid it for some other reason? (Email me -- or ignore me -- if that's too personal a question ( ... )
