1. Can you cook? My roommate is a much better cook; he alters and creates recipes, and is daring with his food selection. I can follow a recipe very well, and am good at sort of slapdash, one-pot meals. My curries are nearly always excellent. 2. What was your dream growing up? Well, once I had a dream that I was eating soft-pretzel salt out of my hand, licking my fingertip and picking the salt up that way. My tongue was hurting, and I couldn't figure out why, until I looked very closely at one of the pieces of salt, and it had a tiny, grey face on it. The face screamed, and then all of the salt flew at my face, and I woke up. As for the actual intended question, I told people I wanted to be a teacher, but I really had no idea or dream of what I wanted to be. 3. What talent do you wish you had? Focus. 4. Favorite place? Home, in a big armchair. 5. Favorite vegetable? Brussel sprouts. I like vegetables in general, though. 6. What was the last book you read? The Hermaphrodite, by Julia Ward Howe, which I am supposed to be taking notes from right this very second. 7. What zodiac sign are you? Libra. Flighty and elitist, but artistic (like that makes up for anything!). 8. Any Tattoos and/or Piercings? Just piercings, in my ears, though I plan on getting a tattoo when I finally get my master's. 9. Worst Habit? I have many. Probably picking at my face for the win. 10. Do we know each other outside of Livejournal? Nope. Aren't you lucky? :D 11. What is your favorite sport? Rugby, I guess, though fencing is a close second. 12. Do you have a Negative or Optimistic attitude? Generally optimistic, though it's well-cloaked. 13. What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me? Probably tell you a story. Convince you to pool whatever food we had on us and have a picnic. Sigh a lot, be quietly irritated with malfunctioning equipment. 14. Worst thing to ever happen to you? Oh, the worst hasn't hit me by far. Getting hit by a truck is right up there, or being cheated on by a girlfriend. 15. Tell me one weird fact about you. Nothing weird about me. Or there's that I like to make loud noises when I am blue. FOOM. 16. Do you have any pets? No, though I ought to. I am a cat person. 17. Do you know how to do the Macarena? Certainly. I offended a very straight-laced boyfriend at an eighth grade dance by doing the macarena too suggestively. 18. What time is it where you are now? 3:08pm. 19. Do you think clowns are cute or scary? Even worse than scary, they are boring. 20. If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be? My complexion: I would like it to be clear. 21. Would you be my partner in crime or my conscience? Depends on the crime, but probably your conscience; if it's not my mischief I tend to have second thoughts. 22. What color eyes do you have? Blue. 23. Ever been arrested? Nope. 24. Bottle or Draft? Bottle. I like how cold it is, and the foaminess. 25. If you won $10,000 dollars today, what would you do with it? Pay off my student loans, buy a few books. 26. What kind of bubble gum do you prefer to chew? Mint of any kind, the long thin stick kind. 27. What's your favorite bar to hang at? I don't really hang at bars anymore, but SugarMom's is pretty nice and funky. Or Bob&Barbara's, which is a bonafied dive bar. 28. Do you believe in ghosts? No. If you're dead, you're dead. 29. Favorite thing to do in your spare time? Read fanfiction, read books, take showers. 30. Do you swear a lot? Yes indeed. 31. Biggest pet peeve? I don't know that I have one that trumps all the rest. Simplistic thinking? 32. In one word, how would you describe yourself? Frenetic. 33. In one word, how would you describe me? Ooh, I don't know. Scintillating? 34. Will you repost this so I can fill it out and do the same for you? Probably not. Though I am tempted!
