Postage Will Cost You Sense

Dec 31, 2006 09:36

Oh goodness. I have just been seized by some incredible nostalgia to relive my past. Through an impressively lengthy survey that I am purloining from Jackie.


100. First off. what’s your name?
Sarah Katherine

99. Why?
Sarah means "Princess" and Katherine means "Pure." I can blame my name for being a pretentious consumer with undertones of prudery. Huzzah.

98. Who is your best friend?
Depends on geography. J'ai des amis hither et thither et yon. It also depends in what context we are speaking.

97. Do you have siblings:
Oh this question has a colon at the end. I feel an analogy coming on. Supposing we replace that ill-conceived punctuation with a more suitable question mark, I would have to admit that no, I have no siblings to challenge me as the rightful heir to the throne.

96. Are your parents together/divorced/seperated?
So happy together!

95. Favorite color?
Again, context. In sort of an ethereal, metaphysical sense I am very attracted to that sort of deep aqua green that sleeps along the gentle slope of a snow-white Caribbean beach when the colors are super-saturated on the Travel Channel.

94. Who is your favorite NFL team?
National Forensics League? Definitely La Cueva. Not that I'm biased.

93. What does the 7th message in your text inbox on your phone say?
It is a brief postil to an inquiry made as to Caroline's whereabouts. She informs me that she is shopping.

92. What about the 13th?
A Merry Christmas from my fellow victim d'Architecture, Sophi.

91. Who sits behind you in 2nd period?
Newsflash: College is like menopause - there are no more periods! Hurrah!

90. Who sits to the right of you?
Jesus. Because I am God.

89. Where is your mom right now?
Looking at real estate. Where else?

88. Do you have any kids?
Not that I am aware of.

87. Who is the 5th person you got a missed call from?
Washie Sarah P. inquiring about a possible tea party.

86. Closest black object.
Liquid crystal display on travel clock propped next to my bed so I can watch the minutes of my life tick, tick away into the blissful void.

85. Closest silver object?
My pocket-sized espionage-ready digital camera.

84. Have you ever jumped a fence running from a cop?
This seems to imply that I have run from a cop. Fence-hopping aside, I rather resent that notion.

84. Do you sing in the shower?
Only when I forget that people could hear me.

82. Do you own any pets?
Does one really ever own anything? What are the origins of ownership? How have animals become just another commodity? But no.

81. How does your hair look right now
How does yours look at eight in the morning? This implies that I have looked in a mirror already. A textile exploration of the cheveux in question would indicate "Puffy" or "Frizzy" are likely adjectives.

80. Last time you listened to country music?
My suitemates like to play country music. Sometimes I can't get the earplugs in fast enough.

79. Have you ever been to a concert?
No. I am a cultural inbred living in an isolated Appalachian village where the closest thing we get to concerts is Ma on the washboard and Daddy on the harmonica....
Of course I have been to a concert.

78. If you could kill someone, who?
My pacifism prevents me from answering this question.

77. What are your fears?
Death, spiders, conscription, calculus, rejection, debilitating mental illness, fear itself, becoming a sad cat lady, becoming a soulless corporate sellout

76. Do you still pee your pants?
I am aged 24 months and have not as of yet developed bladder control. I have entered a special training program colloquially known as "potty" to rectify this deficiency.

75. What do you hear right now?
The hypnotic sound of the dishwasher and of sleepy parents looking at houses online.

74. How many types of drugs are in your system right now?
None. But judging from the impressive tower o' tissues piling up on my nightstand, perhaps some allergy medicine is in order.

72. What are you wearing?
Spike heels and a leather skirt.

71. Last person you commented?
I like how the verb "To Comment" now can take a direct object. I comment you!

70. Do you sing?
Dans la voiture, oui, bien sur!

68. Screamo or Country?
I myself prefer screamo country fusion. It releases the inner tension and repressed anger of the country style while maintaining the subject matter.

67. Rock or Rap?
J'ame la musique rock plus que le rap. Je deteste le rap.

66. Last person you sent naked pictures to?
Last person? So not only are we sending out nude photographs, we are sending them out to multiple people. Good god. I enjoy apparel quite immensely I must say. I would bring back the Victorian bathing costume if I could. Nudity is for the Louvre.

65. Who did you last call?
Les Parents ou Mlle. Holler

64. Who last called you?
Caroline

63. What jewelry do you wear daily?
My graduation ring, funky earrings, quelquefois a corresponding funky chunky bracelet or necklace.

62. Are you happy right now?
Yesh indeed. See them endorphins just a-flowing in the ol' neural network!

61. Who did you last say you loved?
Les parents je pense.

60. Would you take a bullet for someone?
Hypothetically yes. What would Kant say? Egad.

59. If so, who?
Anyone whose subjective expected utility is higher than my own. Oh J.S. Mill.

58. Ever gotten stuck in the mud with a car?
Nay. I did manage to get stuck in my driveway last week. Blasted snow.

57. What do you smell right now?
Teen Spirit.

56. Do you have to pee right now?
That's just creepy. And no.

55. What did you do last night?
Play Scrabble with the neighbors.

54. What are you doing today?
Enjoying naan bread and chicken tiki masala with the gals.

53. If an ex asked you back out, would you say yes?
Probably not. There's usually a really good reason for the coveted status of "ex"

52. For or against gay marriage?
Actually I'm against state marriage in general. Gay couples should have all the same legal rights as breeder couples though.

51. Do you cuss?
Usually only in a British accent.

50. Bed sheet color?
Terra cotta.

49. Wall color?
Sea mist

47. Do you cut yourself?
Shaving, yes. Doing architecture projects, yes. With my emotastic tendencies toward self-destruction, no.

45. Do you have makeup on right now?
Good God. I'm still in bed. Fast forward an hour and likelihood of makeup will increase exponentially.

43. Are you shy?
Self-conscious more than anything.

42. Your hero?
L.L. Nunn

40. Fav. ice cream?
Phish Food. Ben and Jerry have been loyal to me.

39. Have you ever laid with a member of the opposite sex?
In the denotative or connotative sense? If this means simply having someone of the opposite gender recumbent in the same general vicinity, then most certainly. But if it implies the removal of clothing or other actions, then no.

38. America or Canada?
America and Canada define themselves by their dialectic relationship to each other. Canada without America would be just a northern lackey of the Brits. America without Canada would make for a very stupid NAFTA.

37. What makes you mad?
Post-modernity.

36. What if you found out you were adopted?
I would be totally impressed that my parents spent time looking for a baby who looks like a perfect combination of their genes.

35. Jeans or Sweatpants?
Jeans

34. Do you like girls with short or long hair?
Hair length has a direct correlation to one's worth as a person.

33. Name 5 things in your room
Chart entitled "Schematic difference between modernism and postmodernism," a photo of me and Jimmy in the St. Louis airport, Tess of the d'Urbervilles, peppermint lipgloss, a magnet of a shoe shaped like a banana.

32. Do you have socks on?
My feet are decidedly au natural right now.

31. Do you own any big sunglasses?
Yesh. They are very shwank.

30. Have you ever cried so hard you puked?
Nay.

29. Have you ever cried yourself to sleep?
I did that for the first and only time just a couple months ago! Not an experience I want to repeat. Ever.

28. Black or White?
See commentary on America vs. Canada

26. Have you recently talked to an ex?
No. Who, me, bitter?

25. Last time you were at Buffalo Wild Wings?
I have been to Buffalo Wild Wings the same number of times that I have sent nude photos to someone: Zero.

24. Do you miss anyone right now?
Yes.

23. Do you ever use sarcasm?
No! Never.

22. Have you ever gone to school without makeup?
Yes. It's called finals.

21. Are you a good singer?
Only when no one else can hear me singing.

20. what would you say if an ex said "i love you."
I would say: "Darling, you had your chance. It is too late for three-word assertions of adoration. If you want to win me back, it will take an anthology of poems, a litany of apologies, continual groveling, several bouquets of rare orchids, and a trip to Paris."

19. Have you ever laughed so hard you cried?
Oh yes. Google "Wizard People Dear Reader" if you wish to have this experience.

17. Do you shower naked?
I tried it wearing clothes but then you just sort of get soggy.

16. Ever talked on the phone all night?
Mmm hmmm.

13. Do you speak any other languages?
Enough French to get by on.

12. What day is it?
Sunday, Sunday, SUNDAY.

11. What do you think of gay people?
Homosexuality was invented in 1869. People are people. It doesn't influence my opinion of someone one way or the other. That being said, several of my best friends are gay. But that is because they are generally fantastic, not specifically because they are gay.

10. Do you love your friends?
Yes...

09. Are you in a band?
A fake band. Dontatello and the Editor. Yeah Sarah Y. for having actual talent.

08. Do you like your music loud or soft?
I like soft music loud. Nothing beats Simon and Garfunkel on full volume.

07. First female name you think of
Sharon

06. First male name you think of?
The first name I thought of was not worthy of gracing this page. I shall lie and say that "Ferdinand" was the first name that came to mind.

05. What were you doing an hour ago?
This survey.

04. Last beverage drank?
Yorkshire Gold Tea. What else?

03. What is your current worry?
The eventual heat entropy of the universe in several trillion years.

02. What do you want to be in the future?
British! No? Damn. Well I will settle for "Architect" then.

01. Are you ready?
I'm ready!
