Day 1 - Pride. Seven great things about yourself.

1. I'm funny. Not like stand-up comedy funny (cause quick-witted I am not - I'm a frequent victim of l'esprit d'escalier), but I have been known to wield the power of LJ and IM for maximum splorfle generation.
   
   
2. I'm squishy. I cultivate being huggable. I also give pretty good cuddles and hugs.
   
   
3. I'm good in a crisis. I've mentioned this before, but yeah when everyone else is losing their shit that seems to be the only time when I can keep mine together.
   
   
4. I've got nice feet. No really, I've got the kind of long narrow feet that would look disgustingly good in strappy heeled sandals. If I wore such things.
   
   
5. I'm pretty good in the kitchen. So far I've only had one "lets thow things into a pan/pot and see what happens" experiment turn out completely fail - most things have been edible to pretty good. (Last night was a bit of a close call.)
   
   
6. I do pretty well reading books aloud to people. Like I do all the voices and everything. A little sad that Kidzilla pretty much reads on her own now.
   
   
7. Okay, *sigh* I'll admit... I'm kinda hot. A lot of the time I don't see it, but I've noticed as I get older and get more settled into my face, I realize that in the not too distant future I'm going to be one hell of a cougar. Which is fine by me. Seems like unlike the rest of the world, I seem to prefer my ladies looking like they've lived some. Hence all the mental slash I've written between Melinda Warner and Miranda Pond on SVU even though I don't think they ever share a scene. (But Tamara Tunie and Alex Kingston (aka River Song on Doctor Who) are just. So. Damn. HAWT.)
   
   *cough* that was probably TMI.

I am so fried right now and I think I'm in for a NOS fuelled night tonight. Arg. So have a meme.


( 100 truths! Terrifying highs! Dizzying lows! Creamy middles! )

I've been working pretty much nonstop since 10am, with intermittent breaks to clean bits of the house, cook stuff, and let the mental hamsters out for exercise. Taking a break.

( blah blah blah meme )

ETA: speaking of memes, I do have one more slot open on the Craft Meme thing. Any takers? I make pretty things with seed beads. Really pretty things.... And it's gone!

( Silly quesions... )

Update on dad - he's out of bed, has been cajoled into eating a fair amount of breakfast, and one of his lady friends called and he had a completely normal sounding conversation with her, much to my amusement. I remarked later that he needs to have his girlfriends call more often; thats the best i'd heard him sound all week. He cracked an entirely too pleased with himself grin in response. Yeah i think he's gonna be okay. *rolleyes*

Breakfast for me now.

It may take a couple of tries to get this done, as the VP server's a bit on the busy side, probably due to this making the rounds.

Pretty sure I've done this one before, but I'm feeling meme-ish so feh.

( ho shit that's a lot of questions. )

Also, I'm blowing the dust off my formspring. Y'all should ask me some questions. :) Nothing's off the table, I'll answer.

Day One: Ten things you want to say to ten different people right now.
Day Two: Nine things about yourself.
Day Three: Eight ways to win your heart.
Day Four: Seven things that cross your mind a lot.
Day Five: Six things you wish you’d never done.
Day Six: Five people who mean a lot (in no order whatsoever)
Day Seven: Four turn-offs.
Day Eight: Three turn-ons.
Day Nine: Two images that describe your life right now, and why.
Day Ten: One confession.

Day Ten: One confession

Well, I've sat on this one all day and it occurs to me that all I do is confess things and overshare about my life, here, in other journals, on Twitter... yeah it's just all a running commentary of soul baring. And the really juicy stuff? That's shit I lie to MYSELF about, much less share.

I guess I'll offer this up. Some days I strongly feel like my presence in this lifetime is wrong somehow, like I'm not supposed to be here, that as a result every life that touches mine comes away... corrupted? I guess? But that could well be just the depression talking. Most days are okay. Really.


And now a questionnaire meme I yoinked from Facebook:

( lots of questions )

 



Kidzilla's gonna be happy when she sees her four have hatched. And whassup cave born ice, heyyoooo.

Grrr, paid account is dead again; I can't use the "responsible adult" icon.

( 36 questions like a motherfuckin ADULT )
