Re: here ya go
Date: 30 Jan 2008 04:13 am (UTC)Yes, several
2) What was your dream growing up?
I wanted to be the world's most popular paleoanthropologist rock star.
(Actually, those were dreams of two separate times in my life, but it sounds cool.)
3) What talent do you wish you had?
I have the talent to be sort of invisible. I wish I had been granted the talent to turn off the invisibility when I want to.
4) If I bought you a drink what would it be?
Coffee or artificially sweetened cola, possibly
5) Favorite vegetable?
Green beans
6) What was the last book you read?
On audio, Dune (3d re-read). On paper, Woken Furies by Richard K. Morgan
7) What zodiac sign are you?
Scorpio, & laughing about it
8) Any Tattoos and/or Piercings? Explain where.
3 holes in my earlobes. One virtual tattoo that migrates around.
9) Worst Habit?
Getting sucked into time-wasting on the computer like this.
10) If you saw me walking down the street would you offer me a ride?
Assuming I was driving a vehicle with extra passenger capacity, yes.
11) What is your favorite sport?
Sumo (not that I watch much of it, I just like the idea)
12) Do you have a Negative or Optimistic attitude?
Yes
13) What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me?
Press the call button, unless you had done it first. Then make evil overlord plans.
14) Worst thing to ever happen to you?
I've had a pretty sheltered life. I guess the time I had to put Silver (a semi-feral cat) to sleep.
15) Tell me one weird fact about you.
Nothing about me seems particularly weird to me. YMMV.
16) Do you have any pets?
Yes, two cats
17) What if i showed up at your house unexpectedly?
Gape in surprise for a minute, then invite you in. That's assuming I answered the door in the first place.
18) What was your first impression of me? (hmmm...careful!)
My first impression of you was your posts on Usenet, and I remember that you had an idea of combining an old folks' home and a day care, and I thought that was amazingly cool.
19) Do you think clowns are cute or scary?
A few clowns are cute. Most are just annoying.
20) If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be?
I would like to be more observant.
21) Would you be my crime partner or my conscience?
Depends what you were contemplating.
22) What color eyes do you have?
Brown
23) Ever been arrested?
No
24) Bottle or can soda?
Don't care.

Put it in the bank.
27*) What's your favorite place to hang at?
On my couch.
28) Do you believe in ghosts?
No. I believe that people take a long time to let go of stuff that they are used to. And I believe people are sometimes uneasy in places they haven't been before.
29) Favorite thing to do in your spare time?
Knit. Watch DVDs. Read.
30) Do you swear a lot?
Not a whole lot in public. Under my breath/to myself, more.
31) Biggest pet peeve?
Hypocrisy
32) In one word, how would you describe yourself?
Contextual
33) Do you believe/appreciate romance?
What an oddly worded question. I suppose the answer is yes.
35**) Do you believe in God?
Intellectually, no. Emotionally, I find myself unable not to "believe in" something. The something is not really what most people mean when they say "God," but I don't have a good name for it.
36) Will you repost this so I can fill it out and do the same for you?
Already did!
