(no subject)
I'm bored and Jess's Livejournal (by virtue of her furious entry-posting these past few days) has been my source of entertainment for the past hour or so. So I figured what the hell...let's give you, dear reader, more pointless reading material.
1. WHAT'S THE STORY BEHIND YOUR LJ USERNAME? Britannicus is a character from a great series of books I read (and still read now and then)...plus it's the name I use for all my online shenanigans and goings-on.
2. NAME FIVE [5] OF YOUR FAVORITE PIG-OUT FOODS. Pringles, Reese's cups, Snickers, chocolate covered espresso beans, and leftover pizza.
3. HAVE YOU EVER HAD A MAKEOVER? Nope. I'd rather stay like this, for better or worse.
4. NAME ALL MEMBERS OF THE BEATLES. John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. Plus some other guy who was in it before Ringo or something.
5. WHAT'S THE LONGEST TIME YOU'VE STAYED OUT OF THE COUNTRY/WHERE? Japan. 6 months. Don't ever go there.
6. ONE THING YOU'RE GRATEFUL FOR, TODAY. No hangover, and a GIGANTIC, delicious Italian meal at Lidia's with a lot of family.
7. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE HIGH SCHOOL MEMORY? 8th period in Panera...the birth of Jaleo...that old guy dropping his cup (just to rib Andy about that one again).
8. WHAT IS THE MOST INSANE THING YOU'VE DONE FOR/TO YOUR CRUSH THAT HE/SHE MIGHT NOT/MIGHT KNOW ABOUT? Well, she isn't my crush anymore, but in 7th grade I gave Jackie Sadler a gag gift of a jar of water labeled as potassium sulfate. It's a long story, but she loved it. Was the culmination of a running joke we had had going all year between us.
9. DESCRIBE YOUR DREAM WEDDING. Um...just so long as everyone I think should be there is there, including the bride...it's fine. Boring question. Next.
10. WOULD YOU EVER JOIN TEMPTATION ISLAND? I'm not that desperate, though it'd be nice to have my 15 minutes...
11. NAME THREE TEACHERS YOU LIKED IN HIGH SCHOOL/ELEMENTARY.
Mr. Cavanaugh, Mr. McCarthy, and Wes
12. DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE QUOTE? WHAT IS IT? There's a few...they're on profiles of mine here and there.
13. MY FIRST HEARTBREAK HAPPENED WHEN I....who knows? Well, the first one that really stung was when Mary Wilhelm told me she 'decided she didn't like me anymore.' Don't know what the fuck I was doing dating her anyway.
14. THE SCHOOL PICTURE YOU BURIED IN YOUR BOTTOM DRAWER? Nah - I show them off. Look what a dork I was!
15. DO YOU HAVE ANY WEIRD PREFERENCES? WHAT ARE THEY? I don't really understand the question.
16. WHAT IS ONE THING YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND ABOUT THE OPPOSITE SEX? Why can't talking to the attractive ones be easier?
17. WHO IS YOUR BEST FRIEND? I can't really answer this question without pissing off someone I don't mention, I suppose, but definitely Andy and Karasic, and Lisa, and what the hell, Phil too. He's an odd cookie, but we still love him.
18. NAME ONE TV CHARACTER YOU'D MOST WANT TO BE. I'll get laughed at if I do, and yelled at if I don't...say this. Captain Picard.
19. IF YOU WERE FAMOUS, AND WERE TO BE A GUEST ON A TALK SHOW, WHOSE SHOW WOULD YOU CHOOSE? WHY? Don't watch much TV, but Leno or Conan. Why not.
20. GIVE YOURSELF A PORN STAR NAME. No.
21. DO YOU HAVE ANY WEIRD SLEEPING HABITS? Nope.
22. WHAT DO YOU PLAN TO DO THIS SUMMER? Two weeks in Canada, one in NC (outer banks baby...you guys pumped?) and the rest working....somewhere.
23. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SONG RIGHT NOW? Hmm...got some really nice John Digweed tracks...but I dunno. I like too much stuff to name one.
24. WRITE A LINE FROM ANY SONG. "not sure what i'm looking for, but i'll know it when i see you" - John Mayer, "Love Song for No One"
25. DO YOU KNOW AT LEAST ONE DISNEY SONG BY HEART? WHICH ONE? Not really. Maybe if I tried to remember it.
26. DESCRIBE YOUR DREAM HOUSE. the Negley Mansion....or something with grounds.
27. YOUR TYPICAL SLEEPWEAR: Not much.

29. WHAT'S IN YOUR WALLET? Money, some IDs, library card, video rental cards, and my ATM card which is about to snap in half.
30. HOW MUCH MONEY DO YOU HAVE IN YOUR WALLET RIGHT NOW? Dunno. At least 30 (i hope...)
31. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PAIR OF SHOES? My big black steel-toed boots.
32. IF YOU COULD'VE GONE TO YOUR SENIOR PROM IN A DIFFERENT OUTFIT, WHAT WOULD IT BE? Nah. I liked my tux....it was stylin'
33. HOW WAS YOUR SENIOR PROM? Not bad. 'Jette was an awesome date, and how good we looked definitely turned some heads.
34. TELL US ABOUT ANY OF YOUR BIRTHDAYS. I ate cake. I got presents. I was a year older.
35. WOULD YOU RATHER BE A HOBBIT, AN ELF OR A DWARF? No.
36. WHAT ARE THE FIRST FIVE THINGS YOU WOULD SPLURGE ON IF YOU WERE A BILLIONAIRE? A magnificent house, and several magnificent cars. After that, put the rest in a high-interest account or mutual fund and live off the interest.
