A - ACCENT: I would claim that I don't really have one. That is a false claim, though. I'm from Texas. Do the math.
B - BIRTHDAY MONTH: July. Never had to go to school on my birthday and always got to have a pool party. It's the best.
C - CHORE YOU HATE: Cleaning the bathroom. Gross.
D - DAD'S NAME: I call him Daddy or Popsicle. The rest of the world knows him as Lowell. Though that's actually his middle name. I found out after my grandfather died that my dad and all three of his siblings go by their middle names. My dad does because he's a junior but the rest of them, I really have no idea why. Well, aside from my Aunt. I'd go by Ruth too if my first name was Velma.
E - ESSENTIAL MAKE-UP ITEM: I don't wear make-up.
F - FAVOURITE PERFUME/COLOGNE: I don't have a favorite but I do have to be careful with what I wear because of my allergies. Anything too strong or flowery gives me a migraine.
G - GOLD OR SILVER: Silver. As long as it's sterling. Otherwise I get a rash.
H - HOMETOWN: Teeny little blip on the map in SE Texas
I - INSOMNIA: Ugh. Don't get me started on this. I've had so much trouble sleeping ever since I turned 30. I used to be able to fall asleep at the drop of a hat and sleep for a solid eight. Now it takes me forever to fall asleep and I wake up at least three times every night and it's rare that I get more than five. I hate it. I like my sleep, damn it.
J - JOB TITLE: Office Manager. I hate it.
K - KIDS: Nope. I could go either way, honestly. I like them and I could see myself being a parent one day but it's not something I feel a burning need for. I think it will all depend on who I end up with, if anyone. If my partner wants kids, then I'm in. If not, that's cool too. And I definitely won't have one on my own (which is the most likely scenario since I'm destined to be alone forever).
L - LIVING ARRANGEMENTS: Live by myself in a teeny little apartment in the middle of Charlotte. I love it. I'm in a good neighborhood, I'm close to a lot of cool things and I don't have to wear pants if I don't want to.
M - MOM'S BIRTHPLACE: Another tiny little speck on the map in SE Texas
N - NUMBER OF APPLES YOU'VE EATEN: Ever? A lot. My mom used to give us sliced apples and cheese as an after school snack almost every day when I was a kid.
O - OVERNIGHT HOSPITAL STAYS: birth, tonsillectomy, broken arm, mystery illness
P - PHOBIA: Mannequins and vomiting.
Q - QUEST: To discover how to one day have at least a little bit of faith in myself and my abilities.
R - RELIGIOUS AFFILIATION: Atheist
S - SIBLINGS: One older sister. Though I used to pretend that my Cabbage Patch doll (Baby Jeffrey) was my little brother.
T - TIME YOU WAKE UP: 7
U - UNNATURAL HAIR COLOURS YOU'VE WORN: I was big into that eggplant color in high school. I've been dying my hair red since I was about 20, though, and it's not usually a red that occurs in nature.
V - VEGETABLE YOU REFUSE TO EAT: Corn. I HATE IT.
W - WORST HABIT: This all depends on a person's personal definition of worst, no? I'm gonna go with picking my nails though. I pick at my cuticles until they bleed. Nervous tic.
X - X-RAYS YOU'VE HAD: teeth, arm, head (when I flipped off my bike, stomach (when I swallowed a quarter), chest (various bouts with bronchitis)
Y - YUMMY FOODS YOU MAKE: I make a mean casserole. Usually broccoli/cheese or shrimp.
Z - ZANY QUIRK: I hate the word zany. It's so forced and farcical. Anyway, I have a thing for words. I pick out favorites based on how they feel in my mouth when I say them. I also really love to do that thing where you say a word over and over and over until it just becomes letter and nonsense sounds and your brain totally wigs out. Good times.
