From: [personal profile] genarti
1. Can you cook? Reasonably well. I enjoy it, anyway.
2. What was your dream growing up? I wanted to be a vet.
3. What talent do you wish you had? I wish I could draw. I have steady hands and a reasonably artistic eye, but very little skill at transfering the pictures in my head to paper, and I'm not patient enough to practice until I get good. This is perhaps why I adore Photoshop so.
4. Favorite place? Any mountaintop.
5. Favorite vegetable? Tomato. Which is technically a fruit, so I'll toss in spinach.
6. What was the last book you read? I have so many going and being reread that it took me a minute to remember. The Romulan Way by Diane Duane, a reread of a favorite.
7. What zodiac sign are you? Gemini.
8. Any tattoos and/or piercings? Ears pierced once. That's it.
9. Worst habit? Procrastination.
10. Do we know each other outside of LiveJournal? We met at Millicon, if that counts. Mostly LJ/Milliways friends, though.
11. What is your favorite sport? To do? Martial arts -- I've liked all the ones I've tried, but Tae Kwon Do is the one I have most experience in. Ooh, or horseback riding. That one might win. To watch? Gymnastics, or figure skating.
12. Do you have a negative or optimistic attitude? I am a relentless optimist, in spite of all my cynicism.
13. What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me? Babble happily about all sorts of geekery, and not mind the time at all, except for lack of elbow room and tea.
14. Worst thing to ever happen to you? Ummm. I'm not sure, really. This is where the optimism comes in, again.
15. Tell me one weird fact about you. My knees hyperextend backwards.
16. Do you have any pets? One cat! Zebo, who is currently curled on my chest purring. My family has two dogs, Pickles and Hooligan, but they don't really count now that I'm not living at home.
17. Do you know how to do the Macarena? Sadly, yes.
18. What time is it where you are now? 5:56 p.m.
19. Do you think clowns are cute or scary? Sad, mostly.
20. If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be? My teeth have always been annoyingly yellow, for all that I brush like a normal person. I'd love to effortlessly change that.
21. Would you be my partner in crime or my conscience? Can't I be both?
22. What color eyes do you have? Hazel.
23. Ever been arrested? Nope.
24. Bottle or draft? Draft. Insofar as I drink beer, which isn't much.
25. If you won £10,000 today [$20,000 for the Americans], what would you do with it? Set aside enough money for rent for at least the next few months, pay off a big chunk of my student loans, and then take a trip somewhere I've never been.
26. What kind of bubble gum do you prefer to chew? Anything minty.
27. What's your favorite bar / coffee shop / imbibing establishment to hang at? Hmm. I don't have a real favorite at the moment, since my old favorite coffee shop closed. Maybe the nameless (so far as I can tell) coffee shop that took its place, because they have great tea and lovely crepes even if they lack comfortable couches. I much prefer tiny self-owned places to chains like Starbucks, though.
28. Do you believe in ghosts? Not really, though I'm not utterly dead set against the idea.
29. Favorite thing to do in your spare time? Read. Duh. Also knit and RP and go for long rambling walks.
30. Do you swear a lot? More than I used to, but still not much.
31. Biggest pet peeve? Oh, this is so situational, unless I say something really broad like "discourtesy." Can I go with discourtesy? For something smaller, chewing with one's mouth open raises my hackles every time.
32. In one word, how would you describe yourself? Self-contained? That's a lot less true than it used to be, though.
33. In one word, how would you describe me? Adorable.

Who needs to work? I'm off in twenty minutes!

9. Worst habit? Either smoking or picking my nose.
10. Do we know each other outside of LiveJournal? Not at all, but I think you're interesting.
11. What is your favorite sport? Rugby. I wish there were more people who play around here, though. There's no women's team in my area. :(
12. Do you have a negative or optimistic attitude? I try to be perky and ignore all things bad, because then I have a realise that my life is going nowhere and I'm heading towards broke and yeah.
13. What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me? Talk?
14. Worst thing to ever happen to you? My second cousin refused to hand over my college savings from my great-aunt, and I lost $19,000 in college money that I was counting on to go to school. Because of it, I had to drop out of school after one year.
15. Tell me one weird fact about you. I'm missing the last joint on my middle and ring fingers on my left hand.
16. Do you have any pets? My Black Retriever Roxie, and an orange satan animal disguised as a cat, Friskey. Friskey's really Kevin's, though.

18. What time is it where you are now? 1648
19. Do you think clowns are cute or scary? Most clowns vaguely frighten me, but Pennywise scarred me for life.

21. Would you be my partner in crime or my conscience? Depends. I like light-hearted, fun sort of crime, but hardcore crime, I'd be your Jiminy Cricket.
22. What color eyes do you have? Dark green. It's usally mistaken for brown, but they're green.
23. Ever been arrested? No, but I've come close.
24. Bottle or draft? I don't like beer. It makes me puke. Give me gin anyday, I'll be fine.
25. If you won £10,000 today [$20,000 for the Americans], what would you do with it? Something boring, like pay off my student loans, then trade Sibylla in for a sensible mountain car, like a used Jeep Cherokee.
26. What kind of bubble gum do you prefer to chew? Anything minty.
27. What's your favorite bar / coffee shop / imbibing establishment to hang at? My house. I'm too young for bars(by six stupid months!), and coffee shops around here suck.
28. Do you believe in ghosts? Mostly.
29. Favorite thing to do in your spare time? Aside from LJ, read and write.
30. Do you swear a lot? 0 being a Mormon to 10 being a sailor, about a 6.
