A - Z
Why do I always succumb to this crap?
[A is for age of first kiss:]
16, almost 17.
[B is for booze of choice:]
I don't drink, but I've had sips of red wine before (with Mom's permission, I'm a wuss like that), and that's ok.
[C is for career:]
Nurse, someday.
[D is for your dad's name:]
John.
[E is for essential items to bring to a party:]
A camera.
Extra film.
My cell phone.
[F is for favorite song at the moment:]
"Rock The Casbah", by The Clash. Also, "Better Now" by Collective Soul is stuck in my head.
[G is for favorite game:]
World of Warcraft. If MMOs don't count, Baldur's Gate.
[H is for hometown:]
I was born in Houston, which coincidentally also starts with H. I spent most of my childhood in Columbus, OH though, and all of my teenage years in Vienna, VA. I still consider myself a midwestern girl, even though everything once I got old enough to actually DO stuff I lived in Virginia. I've always thought that when I grow up I'll either live in/around D.C. or move back to Denver, where I also lived for a little while. That is, if I even choose to stay in this particular country.
[I is for instruments you play:]
The guitar and the pennywhistle/Irish Flute. (NO IT IS NOT A TOY, DAMMIT.)
[J is for jam or jelly you like:]
Raspberry or grape.
[K is for kids?]
Someday...I hope.
[L is for last kiss?]
About six weeks ago, when I left for school after my labor day break. *gonk*
[M is for mom's name:]
Julia, but everyone calls her Jill. She only goes by Julia when she's at work.
[N is for name of your crush:]
Christian!
[O is for overnight hospital stays:]
When I was one-and-a-half, I had a cricoid split. I was in the pediatric ICU, intubated, for about a week.
[P is for phobias:]
Spiders, dissecting cats, some others that I don't wish to discuss.
[Q is for quotes you like:]
Lots of Voltaire stuff. My two favorites are "Every man is guilty of all the good he didn't do" and "God is a comedian playing to an audience too afraid to laugh."
[R is for relationship that lasted the longest]:
Christian and I will have been dating for a year and a half on the 20th of this month.
[S is for sexual preference:]
I've only ever done anything with guys (well, one guy), but if for some reason I was not in a relationship I would be open to the possibility of dating a girl. But...I'm in a relationship, so...sorry, ladies.
[T is for time you wake up:]
Usually seven-thirty, except for Tuesdays, when I wake up at 5:15AM for clinicals. Five-fucking-fifteen. That's not even the ass-crack of dawn. That's like the scapula of dawn or the thoracic spine of dawn. On Thursdays, I wake up whenever the hell I want, because I only have one class at 1:30...today, however, I woke up at 6:10, because roommate had to print something out for her clinical. I'd probably have gone back to sleep, but I accidentally went to sleep at like eight-thirty last night, so.
[U is for underwear:]
Usually bikini-cut or hi-cut cotton whatever. Usually gray, black, or some odd color. I have one or two pairs of boxer briefs that I wear during clinicals, because there is always the outside chance that I will have to change into scrubs two feet away from one of my instructors, so coverage is at a premium.
[V is for vegetable you love:]
Steamed broccoli, lettuce, cucumbers, carrots, etc.
[W is for worst habit:]
Hating everyone.
[X is for x-rays you've had:]
Well, teeth, obviously. When I got hit by that car during freshman year, I had x-rays of my left knee and wrist and both of my ankles. I also had an MRI on the same knee a few months later when it decided to stop supporting my weight. Stupid knee.
[Y is for yummy food you make:]
Walnut pasta (tastes better than it sounds), bruschetta, mushroom-and-cheese souffle. That's about all the "real food" I can make that don't come out of a box or go in the microwave.
[Z is for zodiac sign:]
Cancer, bitches.
[A is for age of first kiss:]
16, almost 17.
