Lots of pillows or just one? 2 pillows in desperate need of replacement - they manage to be both flat AND lumpy all at once, and I end up bunching up the top one at night to elevate my head more.
What kind of books do you read? Is it printed? On a surface? In a language I can read, preferably English? (French is also acceptable, Russian and Spanish I can probably manage with difficulty)
What are your neighbors like? what, you mean all of the Squirekids? If they're all in the same not too big complex they count as neighbors in my opinion. I mean,
aersi and
verbena76 aren't immediately next door, but if I hocked really hard and if there weren't a tree in the way I could probably spit into their patio.
What's the best lesson you've ever learned? I probably haven't learnt it yet. It takes a few mistakes to really hammer something into my head sometime.
What are you scared of? Medium sized dogs. Large ones are dumb lovebugs. Little ones you can either boot if they get nasty with you or use as feather dusters.
What's your current fandom/obsession/addiction? Well a week ago I would have said A Song of Ice and Fire and everything associated, but I finished A Dance with Dragons and am all set for a while other than reading the lastest casting news for season 2 of Game of Thrones on Reddit.
Do you prefer your junk food sweet, salty or savory? I alternate between sweet and salty usually but there are occasions when I want both. See Wendy's fries dipped in chocolate Frosty. It sounds disgusting, but try it once.
What websites do you always visit when you go online? LJ, Facebook, G+, Reddit, Dragon cave. I have chrome extensions that take care of twitter and Gmail.
What was the last thing you bought? bus fare doesn't count right? No? okay a dunk's coffee and a bagel.
Do you get cravings? If so, what do you crave? depends on the day. Ice cream, arizona iced tea, rare dead cow, cola, coffee, butterscotch...
What do you do to change your mood? Sex, music, or a nice long drive. Two out of three ain't bad as long as the two aren't sex and driving. That'll get you a ticket.
What was the last meal you ate? See the last thing I bought.
Do you want to learn another language? I took French and Russian in school/college, and can read Spanish reasonably well. I'd love to learn Japanese and German someday but I don't know if I'll ever have the time and I'm already losing the languages I DO know. Maybe I need to pirate me some Rosetta Stone programs?
Five things you can't live without? Sex, love, internet, pills that keep my guts from going sproing, music.
Find the closest book currently sitting near you and flip to page 36. What is the first sentence of the second paragraph? "From then till dusk they gave themselves up to the pleasures of dancing and the delights of song." cell23's copy of The Oddysey
What's something that you'd like to say to someone right now? "Why?" (Man, that could apply to so many people/things...)
What are you looking forward to? Fetish Burlesque on Saturday.
Describe your bulletin board/mirror frame/fridge/or other place you keep things. My desk. Disaster area.
What's your middle name? Rasheeda.
Do you have a creative outlet? If so, what is it? beadwork, writing, and too rarely, dancing.
Were you good in school? Hell no. Being good in school required you to actually DO homework.
Do you wear skinny jeans? Not with these hips/this booty.
How many times have you been to the beach? I used to go a lot as a kid. Now... I can't remember the last time I've been, honestly. Probably that trip to Ocean City, but that was more than five years ago.
Are you a sucker for sappy movies? Yes, but only in private. I hate crying in front of people especially over something as dumb as a movie.
Have you ever been told that you're a bad kisser? Quite the opposite; I've yet to hear a complaint. In fact I've yet to hear anything but glowing praise.
Do you believe in God? Sort of. Not in any way defined by any religion I can think of, though.
Who was your first significant other? By some measures,
harinezumi; by others, C.
Are you still with them, or did it end? If it ended, how? No on either count.
harinezumi and I went the way of most high school hormone and angst fuelled relationships (though we did manage to stay friends afterwards, bogglingly enough) C... well. Read the last year or so of
kjpepper if you're that interested in that particular demise.
Any allergies? dust, mold, tree pollen, pet dander. I'd like to say drama but it ain't true. :)
Do you have porcelain, fair, olive, or dark skin? *rolleyes* defaulting to the usual annoying trope of describing skin tone with food analogies, I'm a nice coffee color with varying amounts of cream, depending on the season.
Have you ever written poetry? Of course. Still do sometimes, albeit silly haiku and sonnets. Oh that reminds me, I have that project to get off the ground *scheming*
Would you go up to a stranger and give them a hug? Only if they're wearing a costume. I once ran up to a fluffy ghost at Six Flags during Fright Fest and danced a waltz with it before giving it a big hug, much to the delight and amusement of my friends, and the ghost itself.
What's your biggest pet peeve? Open-mouth chewing. I mean, it looks gross, but it's mostly the sticky squishy noise that accompanies it that makes me homicidal.
Small town or big city? I alternate. When I'm here I wanna go home to New York; when I'm there I wanna be back here. Lately I've been visiting enough to get a good dose of both.
What was your reaction when Michael Jackson died? Gifuh. *stare at CNN stupidly for an hour* Oh hell, I'd better call and check on my sister.
What was your reaction when Billy Mays died? What what what?
Would you ever become a prostitute in times of need? Straight up hooker? Probably not. Firefly Companion? Adept of the Night Court? Venetian Courtesan? Sumarian temple harlot? In a heartbeat.
And now I have Flight of the Conchords' "You don't have to be a Prostitute" stuck in my head.
Do you like Roald Dahl? Fuck yes.
Do you think spontaneous combustion is real? Brb, consulting Mythbusters.
Who was your favorite ninja turtle? Donatello. What? He wore purple. I'm easily pleased. Shut up.
...Raphael could get it though, NGL.
If you had a family member with cancer, would you shave your head? Didn't do it for the last few that did, see no reason to start. Shaving my head ain't gonna cure it faster.
Love or lust? To everything (turn turn turn) there is a season (turn turn turn).
Is there really a difference between the two? Yeah, they just happen concurrently sometimes.
Have you ever seen a panda in real life? Yep.
Do you like the smell of Nag Champa? When it's not failing to mask unwashed hippie funk, yes.
Have you ever been under the influence? Drunk, yes, but since I've never done anything super stupid while doing so I would say no to this.
Everything happens for a reason, right? I'd like to think so but acknowledge the very probable reality that it's all random and none of it has any meaning at all.
Would you ever name your daughter Lucinda? Probably not. But it's a pretty name.
Can you touch your nose with your tongue? No. I can't do any freaky tricks with my tongue actually. And yet I've had no complaints in that department either.
Are you good at magic tricks? Let me show you one. I'm going to make this pencil disappear...
Do you do karaoke? If not, have you ever done it? Yes. Especially after watching a few other terrible and/or drunk people do it before I have to go up.
Are you a night owl? *hoot* This new up-at-6am schedule is gonna kill me, NGL. Or at least drive me back into the loving arms of that chick on the Starbucks cups.
Are you a flirt?
I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a flirt
Soon as I see her walk up in the club I'm a flirt
Winkin eyes at me, when I roll up on them dubs I'm a flirt
Sometimes when I'm with my chick on the low I'm a flirt
And when she's wit her man looking at me, damn right I'm a flirt
So homie don't bring your girl to meet me 'cause I'm a flirt
And baby don't bring your girlfriend to eat 'cause I'm a flirt
Please believe it, unless your game is tight and you trust her
Then don't bring her around me 'cause I'm a flirt
I'd like to add that the only reason I know that song is from Girl Talk. I don't think I've ever heard the original, and I'm mad that it's by R. Kelly because I'm morally against liking anything sung by men that like peeing on underage girls. Just saying.
If you were a different person, would you date yourself? Maybe? I imagine I'm kinda frustrating.
Who do you look up to? Ehh, I don't really. Kinda focusing my concentration on self-improvement, not emulating others, if that makes any sense?
What do you want people to remember about you when you die? I have no idea. People will remember what they will I suppose.
Why? Why not?
What kind of books do you read? Is it printed? On a surface? In a language I can read, preferably English? (French is also acceptable, Russian and Spanish I can probably manage with difficulty)
