Feb. 21st, 2009 04:35 pmThese are supposedly 27 questions that no one would ever think to ask. Answer them, then REPOST.
1. When you looked at yourself in the mirror today, what was the first thing you thought?
Oh, God, it's her again.
2. How much cash do you have on you?
None.
3. What's a word that rhymes with "TEST"?
Blest.
4. Favorite planet?
Jupiter.
5. Who is the 4th person on your missed call list on your cell phone?
There are no missed calls on my cell phone.
6. What is your favorite ring on your phone?
The 90s X-Men cartoon theme, though right now it's "Goody Two Shoes."
7. What shirt are you wearing?
Pyrtle Panthers sweatshirt. My elementary school, though the shirt's not that old.
8. Do you "label" yourself?
No. I can usually remember what I'm called.
9. Name the brand of your shoes you're currently wearing?
"HAND WASH COLD SEPARATELY," apparently.
10. Bright or dark room?
Brightish.
11. What do you think about the person who took this survey before you?
RELAX, FOR GOD'S SAKE!
13. What happened to number 12?
Bear attack.
14. What were you doing at midnight last night?
Putting away 'Tristram Shandy' and going to sleep.
15. What did your last text message you received on your cell say?
"My stomach is growling in that bad 'Your ass is about to explode!' way." Send me ten dollars and I'll tell you who it's from. No word yet on how it worked out.
16. Where is your nearest 7-11?
I think...no that's a red one. Um. The one up the street is a BP. There's one at 56th and...not Vine, the next easty-westy artery past Vine. By the Runza, and LaunDRY Land, and Kong Liquor.
17. What's a saying that you say a lot?
Oh, CONSARN IT! Seriously. I say that. It's sad.
18.Who told you they loved you last?
Diana
19. Last furry thing you touched?
Elephant, on the chair in the living room. He was lonesome.
20. How Many Drugs Have You Done In The Past three Days?
Do prescription drugs count as "doing?" If so, two. And some asprin.
21. How many rolls of film do you need to get developed?
I have gone digitard. I had a couple of instant cameras I loved, and would still use, but they don't make the film anymore.
22. Favorite age you have been so far?
I liked being 37. Because I could say, "I'm thirty-seven! I'm not old." Also being 3 was cool.
23. Your worst enemy?
Me.
24. What is your current desktop picture?
The Moon in close-up, from the wallpaper stash that came with the computer.
25. What was the last thing you said to someone before becoming Intimate?
"Sure, give it a try."
26. If you had to choose between a million bucks or to be able to change a major regret, which would it be?
The money, since most of them are things somebody else would have to change, and most of the ones I could change could actually be fixed with a cool mill. Then we could all go for ice cream.
27. Do you like someone?
I like many people. I even love a few.

Feb. 13th, 2009 10:47 amMeme from cageyklio:
If you happen to be working on some creative writing project, fanfiction or NaNoWriMo or what have you, post exactly one sentence from each of your current work(s) in progress in your journal. It should probably be your favourite or most intriguing sentence so far, but what you choose is entirely your discretion. Mention the title (and genre) if you like, but don't mention anything else.
"So, since arriving, you've spent..." he did a quick mental calculation. "...around 250 quid on socks and underpants."
She looked like a Care Bear that had been bullied for its pocket money.
