A. Er...which one? I still have trouble making my goals realistic; when I was younger I constantly assumed it would only take a year or two before I was a writing prodigy/genius architect/filmmaker/singer-songwriter, with an option being stolen by fairies. I'm not sure I've made much of a dent in "growing up," to be honest.

A. ...Assuming I was in a car? And I had met you in person before and recognized you? 'Cause otherwise that's creepy.
Possibly. I'd certainly wave, and if I wasn't in a godawful rush and you just seemed to be wandering I might pull over and chat; if you then said you were on your way someplace I could take you, then sure. But as a default I assume people are busy doing their own thing and am hesitant about hassling them.
11) What is your favorite sport?
A. Climbing trees.
12) Do you have a Negative or Optimistic attitude?
A. Optimistic, in that "completely unrealistic" way. See #1. Pessimistic for a lot of day-to-day stuff.

A. Jammer on with stories of other times I've been stuck in an elevator or otherwise in an awkward position.

...I guess that means "conscience, but not a very conscientious one."
22) What color eyes do you have?
A. Olive green, which looks brown if you're standing more than four feet away.
23) Ever been arrested?
A. Not yet.
24) Bottle or can soda?
A. Glass bottles are nice.
25) If you won $10,000 today, what would you do with it?

A. To be a nun who ran an orphanage
3) What talent do you wish you had?
A. Conflict management (my own and/or others’. I’d honestly prefer others’)
4) If I bought you a drink what would it be?
A. It depends on my mood. It might be a beer (possibly Heineken, Sam Adams), it could be a martini, or I might want you to pick me something I’ve never had before (I’m bad at trying new things, even though I want to, so I need a little nudge in the right direction)
5) Favorite vegetable?
A. Broccoli. Carrots come in second, although not too closely. Corn is next.
6) What was the last book you read?
A. Till We Have Faces by CS Lewis. I’m currently reading The Onion Girl by Charles DeLint.
7) What zodiac sign are you?
A. Sag
8) Any Tattoos and/or Piercings? Explain where.

9) Worst Habit?
A. Not keeping in touch with old friends.

19) Do you think clowns are cute or scary?
A. I don’t think cute is exactly the right word. Goofy maybe? Not scary though.
20) If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be?

Well, then here's my reply!...mainly culled from what I said to zekkass ^_^;;
Date: 2008-04-29 02:16 am (UTC)1) Are you currently in a serious relationship?
A. *rolls eyes* I haven’t been a relationship period since the beginning of freshman year of college, and though at times I recall it with some longing for the good old days, I’m in no hurry to jump into another…if a 5 year dry spell can’t attest to that. I’m constantly falling head over heels for people, but I know better than to try for it--the infatuation will pass. One of Nature’s Bachelors I am.
2) What was your dream growing up?
A. Good God, I had so many, I’ll try to pick just one. I wanted to be an actress. Boring and common, I know, but I really did. And I wanted to be a comedic sort of actress, an Abott&Costello sort, the sort you’d see in a black and white movie. I mean, I still rather DO, but now I have my career and other things to distract me ^_^
3) What talent do you wish you had?
A. Many, many, many. I am a jack of all trades, master of none. I’d LOVE it if I was a far more graceful person, better at dancing and movement. That, and an ability to actually MASTER a foreign language. My jealous of the proficiency of some of my friends is PROFOUND.
4) If I bought you a drink what would it be?
A. Well, I suppose it depends. The traditional answer is beer, but since the weather’s gotten warmer, I’d have to say a Long Island Ice Tea (I have strange, seasonal desires for food and drink, which, once I explain WHY I desire them, actually make a lot of sense)
5) Favorite vegetable?
A. I’m torn. I love so many of them. I do so love carrots, but I’ve always been very fond of cooked zucchini as well.
6) What was the last book you read?
A. *ponders* Pretty certain it was “Face of a Stranger”. I think you recced it to me, actually.
(I adored it, by the way)
7) What zodiac sign are you?
A. Aries.
8) Any Tattoos and/or Piercings? Explain where.
A. Just my ears. But even then, I have to keep making sure they aren’t closed on me…I RARELY wear earrings. But I try to keep the holes open, just in case.
9) Worst Habit?
A. I continually and successfully procrasti-fuck myself over and over again. I REALLY need to find myself a work ethic, and stop being so creatively and work-relatedly lazy/flighty. Too much of a dreamer, me, not much of a doer.
10) If you saw me walking down the street would you offer me a ride?
A. Well, as we only know eachother on the internet, I'd have to say, no, sorry. ^_^
11) What is your favorite sport?
A. Sport? What is this thing you call, ‘sport’?
12) Do you have a Negative or Optimistic attitude?
A. Is it possible to be negatively optimistic? Or more like, optimistically negative? Like, I very cheerfully concede that something awful/uncomfortable/general bad is BOUND to happen and will happen and Murphy’s Law etc etc, but that surely it will pass and we’ll get back to the sunshine and daisies and laughter and all that jazz.
13) What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me?
A. Talk, mostly. If I got really bored, I’d probably start singing, until you told me to shut up. And then I’d try to hum in my head, which would only come out as humming aloud, which would probably get me another ‘shut up!”
14) Worst thing to ever happen to you?
A. When my friend JB died. He was only 20. It torn me up, nearly ruined my academic career, and I’m STILL carrying far more emotional baggage from it then sometimes I can bear.
15) Tell me one weird fact about you.
A. I have a birthmark on the side of my stomach that is raspberry colored, roughly strawberry shaped, and EVERYONE who’s ever seen it thinks it’s a horrible bruise or something. I myself am rather fond of it, always have been too.
Re: Well, then here's my reply!...mainly culled from what I said to zekkass ^_^;;
Date: 2008-04-29 02:17 am (UTC)16) Do you have any pets?
A. yes! My cat, Piper.
17) What if i showed up at your house unexpectedly?
A. …Hello! Oh my God, it’s YOU…Would you like some tea?
18) What was your first impression of me?
A. Knows her J&W, MY GOD KNOWS CHESTERTON, is clever and intelligent and *FRIENDED!*
19) Do you think clowns are cute or scary?
A. Depends on the clown. Generally scary though. I prefer un-make-uped jesters over clowns.
20) If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be?
A. I suppose just a little less fleshy over all.
21) Would you be my crime partner or my conscience?
A. Hehe…you’re devil’s advocate, more like. It’s what I do best.

27) What's your favorite place to hang at?
A. By myself, in my room. With people…the nearest bar.

29) Favorite thing to do in your spare time?
A. Doing nothing but musing.
30) Do you swear a lot?
A. I’m a very age-conscience/person-conscience swearer. I don’t swear around kids or people I know to be uncomfortable with swearing. However, every where else I’m like a fucking sailor. Which I was. In high school. Ah, the good old days.
31) Biggest pet peeve?
A. I try not to irrationally hate anyone. I try to be polite, and try to never demean a person. I especially try to be exceedingly patient with people. But sometimes, I find myself faced with some people so shallow, and vapid, and contrary to everything I hold dear, that I have to run away before I get really nasty. Just…GAH GET OUT OF MY GENE POOL!!!
32) In one word, how would you describe yourself?
A. Sophomoric.
33) Do you believe/appreciate romance?
A. I…THINK I do. I also roll my eyes when I think it’s getting laid on a little too think. I don’t like an obsession with romance. I suppose you can say when it comes to romance, I’m like the 9 year old boy that whines “MOOOOOOM” when his mother tries to kiss him, but secretly likes being loved all the same.
35) Do you believe in God?
A. Yep.
Why not? I haven't got a job...
Date: 2008-04-28 05:55 am (UTC)A. HA!

A. Basketball
12) Do you have a Negative or Optimistic attitude?
A. Depends on how well I'm being f**ked.
13) What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me?
A. Think how we could turn these circumstances into a crazy adventure that ultimately led to a the royal hall of a faraway king...a DJ king who ruled by spinning records and running rhymes.

32) In one word, how would you describe yourself?
A. Paradox.
33) Do you believe/appreciate romance?
