Survey
I got this as an email, and decided to post it here.
1. WHAT TIME DID YOU GET UP THIS MORNING?
...morning? Heh, good one. I woke up just after 9pm.
2. DIAMONDS OR PEARLS?
Diamonds.
3. WHAT IS THE LAST FILM THAT YOU SAW?
"The Lookout." It wasn't all that great, possibly because it's not from a genre I'm interested in. I watched it 'cause one of the actors in it is going to be in the Watchmen movie.
4. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TV SHOW?
At the moment? Due South.
5. WHAT DO YOU USUALLY HAVE FOR BREAKFAST?
A protein bar and a soda.
6. WHAT IS YOUR MIDDLE NAME?
Jean.
7. WHAT KIND OF CAR DO YOU DRIVE?
I don't drive.
8. FAVORITE SANDWICH?
Turkey with mustard.
9. WHAT CHARACTERISTIC DO YOU DESPISE?
Willful stupidity.
10. FAVORITE ITEM OF CLOTHING
A light blue shirt with a squid on it.
11. IF YOU COULD GO ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD ON VACATION, WHERE WOULD YOU GO?
To visit darlas_mom.
12. WHAT COLOR IS YOUR BATHROOM?
White with green and black. For a few years I actually picked things like shampoo and body wash based on the color (usually green), so they'd match the tile. But I love citrus smells too much to stick to that (citrus-scented things are almost always yellow).
13. FAVORITE BRAND(s) OF CLOTHING?
...I don't even know what brands I have. Erm. Does Threadless count? They're pretty cool.
14. WHERE WOULD YOU RETIRE TO?
Right here. Or San Diego.
15. WHAT WAS YOUR MOST MEMORABLE BIRTHDAY?
"Memorable" and "good" aren't the same thing. Just sayin'.
16. FAVORITE SPORT TO WATCH?
I like watching figure skating and gymnastics, during the Olympics.
17. FURTHEST PLACE YOU ARE SENDING THIS?
No idea.
18. WHO DO YOU LEAST EXPECT TO SEND THIS BACK TO YOU?
No idea.
19. THE PERSON YOU EXPECT TO SEND IT BACK FIRST IS?
No idea.
20. FAVORITE SAYING?
I'm fond of "oh, dear," and I've been itching to use "reasons that do not need exploring at this juncture."
21. YOUR BIRTHDAY?
April 21, 1984. Taurus, Rat.
22. ARE YOU A MORNING OR NIGHT PERSON?
Night. Night, night, night.
23. WHAT IS YOUR SHOES SIZE?
Eight and a half.
24. PETS?
A black cat named Ninja.
25. ANY NEW AND EXCITING NEWS THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE?
Jackie Earle Haley looks perfect for Walter Kovacs once they put on his wig and makeup.
Also, I'm considering getting a separate LJ for fandom things, 'cause I feel weird rambling about fandom to the family members who read this (*waves* Hi, Mom! I'm fangirling another psychopath!), and even weirder rambling about things like my diet and mental health to internet people who probably care more about fandom.
But that's a silly thing to worry about when I almost never update, so... dunno. Maybe.
26. WHAT DID YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU WERE LITTLE?
A vet or an opera singer or an actress. It varied.
27. HOW ARE YOU TODAY?
Okay.
28. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CANDY?
Hurm. It varies, depending on what I'm craving. Nerds and Starbursts are awesome. (I'm tempted to say sugar cubes, for reasons which will be obvious to Watchmen fans, but I don't think I've actually eaten any.)
29. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE FLOWER?
A weed whose name I've never learned.
30. WHAT IS A DAY ON THE CALENDAR YOU ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO?
There isn't one.
31. WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO RIGHT NOW?
My fan, and the soothing white noise it makes.
32. WHAT WAS THE LAST THING YOU ATE?
...I should go eat something.
33. DO YOU WISH ON STARS?
No.
34. IF YOU WERE A CRAYON, WHAT COLOR WOULD YOU BE?
Teal.
35. HOW IS THE WEATHER?
Wait. Are you saying there's a world outside, where stuff happens?
...you just blew my mind.
36. FAVORITE SOFT DRINK?
Pepsi.
37. FAVORITE RESTAURANT(s)?
Hometown Buffet.
38. SIBLINGS?
One older sister.
39. FAVORITE DAY?
Don't have one.
40. WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE TOY AS A CHILD?
It varied from year to year. For a while it was Trolls, then Littlest Pet Shop, then the cat variety of Pound Puppies.
41. SUMMER OR WINTER?
Summer. I am a huge wimp about cold. Which reminds me, I've gotta find my fingerless gloves before it gets winter-ish enough that my hands get cold while I'm typing at night.
42. HUGS OR KISSES?
Neither. Social anxiety disorder sucks.
43. COFFEE OR TEA?
Tea. (Earl Gray. Hot. ...kidding, it actually depends on the effect I want it to have. Chamomile is soothing, green is for caffeine.)
44. CHOCOLATE OR VANILLA?
It depends. Chocolate, as a flavor, doesn't actually translate itself to ice cream all that well- you need bits of brownie or cookie or something to really get the chocolate flavor across. Vanilla, on the other hand, is a good baseline "cold treat" flavor. So, chocolate if it's a good chocolate, vanilla if it's not.
45. DO YOU WANT YOUR FRIENDS TO EMAIL YOU BACK?
Yep.
46. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED?
A couple days ago, I think.
47. WHAT IS UNDER YOUR BED?
Some collapsed archive boxes (the kind you fold into a box shape when you need them) and possibly some books.
48. FRIEND THAT YOU HAVE HAD THE LONGEST?
darlas_mom.
49. WHAT DID YOU DO LAST NIGHT?
I woke up, read for a while, took a shower, goofed off online with some sketching games (a sketch swapping thing and iSketch, both fun when full of people from a forum you frequent and dull when not), and chatted with darlas_mom.
50. FAVORITE SMELL?
Lavender, lemon and rain.
51. ARE YOU AFRAID OF ANYTHING?
...yes. Yes, I am. Anxiety disorders suck.
52. SALTY OR SWEET?
Salty.
53. MANY KEYS ON YOUR KEYCHAIN?
Only three.
54. HOW LONG AT YOUR CURRENT JOB?
*sigh*
55. IN HOW MANY TOWNS HAVE YOU LIVED?
Three, if you count the one I barely remember. All of them very close to each other.
56. DO YOU MAKE FRIENDS EASILY?
No. Mostly because I suck at talking.
57. HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL YOU SEND THIS TO?
Some.
58. HOW MANY WILL RESPOND?
This reminds me of a joke: What do you call a deer with no eyes?
No-eye deer.
