1. Can you cook?
I'm cooking with gas, baby!
2. What was your dream growing up?
To be a dinosaur hunter - or a cowboy.
3. What talent do you wish you had?
Any talent, really...
4. Favorite place?
Carmel-by-the-Sea
5. Favorite vegetable?
Wow, this is a toughie... I actually do like green leafy things... brussel sprouts?
6. What was the last book you read?
Pronoia is the Antidote to Paranoia by Rob Breszny
7. What zodiac sign are you?
Capricorn (with a Pisces Moon)
8. Any Tattoos and/or Piercings?
Why, yes.
9. Worst habit?
Nose pickin'.
10. Do we know each other off line?
Probably not. I only talk to one IRL person on here... small social circle, really.
11. What is your favorite sport?
Horse racing
12. Negative or Optimistic attitude?
Realistically Pessimistic.
13. What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me?
Being the practical sort, I'd open the little call box & get in touch with someone on the outside... that or start praying to the Great God Otis. Nothing against you, but spending time in an elevator waiting to get to the next floor is an inefficient use of time, and generally if I'm in an elevator it's because I'm delivering paperwork or trying to get to/from lunch. If it's after my lunchtime, you'll probably survive the encounter none the worse for wear.
14. Worst thing to ever happen to you?
The realization that I was a perfectly normal, everyday, average human being with no super-hero mutations, no god-like power, no talent, no future and no potential.
15. Tell me one weird fact about you:
For years & years I used to tell people my name was Daisy.
16. Do you have any pets?
Yes.
17. Do you know how to do the Macarena?
Thank the Gods, no... but I do find the song itself catchy and somewhat hip-shaking.
18. What time is it where you are now?
11:13pm, PST
19. Do you think clowns are cute or scary?
Scary. Very, very scary.
20. If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be???
My skin.
21. Would you be my crime partner or my conscience?
Partner in crime. Friends bail you out - real friends are sitting in the cell next to you saying, "Damn that was fun! When are we getting together again?"
22. What color eyes do you have?
Hazel.
23. Ever been arrested?
Yes. Nothing stuck, including the handcuffs.
24. What is your favorite drink?
Brewed unsweetened iced tea
25. If you won $10,000 dollars today, what would you do with it?
Pay off my credit cards yet again.
26. What kind of bubble gum do you prefer to chew?
I'm pretty stuck on Orbit's Citrus flavor right now
27. What's your favorite place to hang at?
Home sweet home. Used to be Cafe' Espresso Roma, though. Or the Huntridge.
28. Do you believe in ghosts?
Yes.
29. Favorite thing to do in your spare time?
Sleep. And World of Warcraft.
30. Do you swear a lot?
Yes, motherfucker. I swear if one more person asks me this...
31. Biggest pet peeve?
People who have no consideration for people behind them when they go through a door, and people who stand right in front of the elevator door when it opens.
32. In one word, how would you describe yourself?
Grouchy.
33. Will you repost this so I can fill it out and do the same for you?
The proof is before you.
I just got up from a nap. My sleep (and Rob's sleep) schedules have been completely fubar'd for no apparent reason. Stayed up all day yesterday, went to bed at like, 5 or 6pm, got up around 2am, stayed up til 6pm today, took a nap. I haven't taken my Elavil in two days so I'm kind of freaked out to begin with, but both last night & tonight I was awoken by the weird noise factor. Last night I laid in bed looking intently at my bedroom window for almost an hour because I hearlucinated the perfect sound of fingers sliding on glass, complete w/a cool draft from that corner - as if someone had jimmied open my window. Because I'm scared of the dark & also of reality, I wasn't able to get up out of bed to actually check the window. Finally I forced myself to turn my light on & just get the Hel up outta bed. Tonight, I was just twitchy, kept waking up in a panic only to fall back asleep. Finally, I started seeing the reflections of red & blue flashing lights & hearing cop voices over mikes... of course, there was no one in our neighborhood being arrested, but Metro's chopper patrol was flying around outside spotlighting everyone's yards. I know the audio-visual effects are partly from trying to sleep at weird times & partly because of no Elavil, so I'm not overly concerned. I called in sick tonight, too, because I knew w/the weird schedule of my weekend, I wasn't getting any sleep today & I just didn't want to go into work like this. I'm hoping I can force myself into bed around 10am & get up at like 4 in the afternoon. I'll be tired & cranky, but it should reset my clock.
