50 Odd Things About You!
FILL IT OUT! Learn 50 things about your friends, and let them learn 50 things about you! Make sure you copy and paste, then change the answers.
1. Do you like blue cheese? Dee-sgusting! :P
2. Have you ever smoked? Yup. Quite cold turkey. Still occasionally light up, but VERY rare.
3. Do you own a gun? Nope. That might scare me a little.
4. What flavour do you add to your drink at Sonic? (For reference of non-US people, Sonic is a drive through fast food place that has flavoured syrups.) I don't really drink anything from there. The Cherry Lime-ade is pretty good, but it's been a LOONG time.
5. Do you get nervous before doctor appointments? Nah.
6. What do you think of hot dogs? Eh. I could give or take 'em. Every once in a while I have a craving, but not often.
7. Favourite Christmas movie? It's a tie between A Christmas Story and It's a Wonderful Life. One for laughs and one for feel-goodness. And a nice dose of Jimmy Stewart.
8. What do you prefer to drink in the morning? When I have a morning beverage, it's usually hot tea. Lately I've been on a Pomegranate Green Tea kick. That stuff rocks!
9. Can you do push ups? Girl pushups, yes. Guy pushups...hang on...*panting* yes, but not too many. And not in socks. My feet slip!
10. Do you know the secret to a happy life? Now people, seriously. If I knew it, I would be friggin' rich right now! But really, I don't think anyone knows the secret. Here we go -- the secret to a happy life is to be happy. THAT was deep. *Rolls eyes*
11. What's your favourite piece of jewelery? My amulet from China, made by a Tibetan ironworker. It has the Sanskrit symbols for the Buddhist mantra Oh Ma Ne Padme Hum inscribed in a circle. It is my most cherished piece, because it was from an unforgettable experience and is essentially irreplaceable.
12. Favourite hobby? Too many to name just one! Reading, writing and knitting are probably my favorites though.
13. Song you're listening to right now? The Prime of Your Life, from Billy Joel's My Lives box set.
14. Do you have A.D.D.? Kind of. Most of the time I am pretty focused, but sometimes I get REALLY easily distracted. I think it's what helps me multi-task so well, so it's usually pretty under control.
15. What's one trait you do not like about yourself? I am very hard on myself all the time.
16. Middle name? Do I have to? Ugh. Louise.
17. Name 3 thoughts at this exact moment:
1) I love this song.
2) I hope my legs don't fall asleep from lying this way on the bed.
3) Ooh. Don't like this song as much as the last one. *Switches iTunes* Ah, much better.
18. Name 3 things you bought yesterday? Pill pockets for my dog's medication, dinner at my favorite Mexican restaurant, and breakfast at IHOP. Yummy.
19. Name 3 drinks you regularly drink? Water, Diet Cheerwine, and tea.
20. Current worry? Making sure I have enough money in July for a deposit and first month's rent on an apartment AND a week in New York.
21. Current hate right now? Capitalism. Why can't we go back to bartering? I'll cut your lawn for ten years for a plane ticket to New York...Oh, and the fact that some schmuck thought a five day work week was a good idea. How about three? Or four?
22. Favourite place to be? Sitting at a quaint cafe, sounds of the city everywhere, with a book and a cup of tea at my table. Or on my yoga mat. The former is less common, LOL.
23. How did you bring in the New Year? Err...oh, right! I went and played games with a friend from work while we watched to New Year's Rockin' Eve broadcast. Which is actually more than I've done in years to ring in the New Year.
24. Where would you like to go? My shortlist includes Tibet, Budapest, Prague, Italy, and London (again). It's a really, REALLY long list, folks.
25. Name four people who will complete this: Your guess is as good as mine.
26. Do you own slippers? Yes, but I NEVER wear them. I am a barefoot girl all the way!
27. Last magazine you read: Don't read alot of magazines. I browsed through PhotoShop Magazine, People and American Theatre Magazine last week while waiting for my roommate to finish up with her work so we could go home, but that's about it.
28. Do you like sleeping on satin sheets? Since I never have, I would say I can't really have an opinion on this one, LOL.
29. Can you whistle? No. Not a lick. I tried!
30. Favourite colour? This seems to change a bit from time to time. Right now, I am in love with autumn colors -- that lovely deep red and burnt orange.
31. Would you be a pirate? Hell to the yeah!
32. What songs do you sing in the shower in the morning? It totally depends on the soundtrack of my brain that morning. Sometimes I wake up with the weirdest songs in my head...but I always have songs in my head.
33. Favourite girl's name as of this moment? Toss up between Madeleine and Charlotte.
34. Favourite boy's name? Love the names Jack and Brendan
35. What's in your pocket right now? Lint, and my old student ID from college (hey, I can't help it the movie theater people don't want to see the validation date on the back...I'm getting 1.50 off my ticket, damnit!)
36. Last thing that made you laugh? Something my friend Darrell texted me about ten minutes ago.
37. Best bed sheets as a child? Holy crap, that IS an odd question! Er. I don't remember having favorites. I guess I liked the ones in my old bedroom that are still on the bed. Nice and comfy, but a very plain and boring sea green color.
38. Worst injury you've ever had? I guess my broken arm, though it wasn't as traumatic as I thought it would be. My most visible was the huge abrasion down my face after I wrecked my car. From the airbag, mind you. And I was in the middle of a show run, so I had to put liquid bandage on it before applying makeup. OOH, that shit hurt! Everyone at work called me Scar. Har-har.
39. Do you love where you live? The area of the country? Absolutely. I love Florida. My current place of residence? Not at all. Counting down the days til I can move out! Only four months and one week to go!
40. Cat lover or dog lover? I am an equal opportunity lover, but right now all I have is a dog because my cat wouldn't stop peeing on my shoes. And that is UNACCEPTABLE.
41. Who is your loudest friend? Lynda, my best friend. We complement one another rather well. She's the loud, outgoing, impetuous one, and I'm the calmer, cautious one. Hmph. Who would have guessed? ;)
42. How many fish do you have? I have several cand of tuna in the cupboard...but I have a feeling that wasn't what the question wanted to know, was it?
43. Does someone have a crush on you? Yes, but he's married. Big no-no. *shakes fist* Why can't someone whose NOT MARRIED have a crush on me?!?!
44. What is your favourite television show? Project Runway and The Closer. Those are my two Can't Miss shows.
45. What is your favourite book(s)? This changes alot, but some true favorites are Anne Perry's William Monk series, Harry Potter, JD Robb's In Death series, The Historian, and Anna Karenina
46. What is your favourite candy/sweet? Crunchie bars and anything sour
47. Favourite Sports TEAM? Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and Atlanta Braves.
48. What song do you want played at your funeral? Prop Me Up Beside the Jukebox When I Die. NOT REALLY! I have no clue. Haven't really thought about it much.
*Where is #49?*
50. What was the first thing you thought of when you woke up? "It's 9:15 ALREADY?! And why is Lynda yelling at me to come downstairs?..." I went downstairs to find she had shaved my dog from forehead to tail. He looks hilarious.
