prehaps less sarcastic than most

• Alright, so have you ever actually sat down and thought about why you like the person you like? Yes. I am prone to such internal investigations.
• When people say, "Honestly I don't think I've ever talked shit about anyone" do you think its possible? It's possible. More probable if one is an infant, or Amish.
• Why do you think your favorite color is your favorite color? Because it's dark, and I am dark.
• Do you know anyone who drinks/smokes to look cool? I don't know anyone who doesn't smoke to look cool. Drinking is more varied, I think.
• Do you honestly think you could last a week without a computer or cellphone? Yes, I honestly could. I occasionally go days without using a computer when I am on vacation, and the fucking phone rarely rings anyway.
• Do you ever think about the world ending? Not so much. What's the point of worrying about it?
• How do you feel about gay marriage seriously? I like it. It makes me happy to think of people in love, "making it official" and having a party to celebrate.
• Have you ever made plans with someone for a really long time and then ditched out on them? I will rarely ditch "a really long time" plans, but I've been VERY flaky with plans lately, entirely because I've been under the weather on and off for nearly 2 weeks. (I was an hour late for work this morning because of it.)
• Has someone ever said to you "don't tell anyone please" and then a second later you told someone? Not a second later. I've been known to substitute my own judgment for that of the tell-er, though. It's not something of which I am proud.
• Do you care about how you eat? Yes. I try to do it with my mouth closed.
• Is there someone you'd really like to hang out with and just talk about stuff? Yes: The Cat, artcat, Heidi, college BFF, Fluffy, Robert...
• Have you ever gone out of your way to do something nice for someone? Once or twice.
• Have you ever gone out of your way to do something mean to someone? Hell, yeah.
• When you get embarrassed what usually happens? I turn *very* red, and eventually I get over it. It takes a lot, now that I think about it. Either I don't give a shit about peoples' perceptions of me on that level, or I'm creeping toward Zen.
• Is there something that has happened in your past that you really hate talking about? Yes. Let me tell you all about it... psych!
• Is there someone you don't really know but they bother you? That would be a long list.
• What teacher has left the biggest impact on you? Intellectually: Seymour. Emotionally: Uncle Neil.
• If going back in time was an option, would you? Yes. Hello, JS and/or SMV!
• What is your biggest fear? Big dogs, chasing me off the back of a set of aluminum bleachers.
• Do you honestly LOVE your friends? I love the bejeezus out of my friends, and even some people I wouldn't exactly call "friends".
• Have you ever done something really hypocritical? NEVER!
• Do you think people dwell on the past too much? I suppose that the word "dwell" in there begs the question. I'm a historian - thinking about the past is what I do. My lawyer-ish-ness doesn't help, either, since one role of an attorney is to predict (and thereby prevent) problems, and to do that, one needs to examine applicable patterns from the past. There are times when roaming the past is fruitless, but if I decried every fruitless activity in which humans take part, I'd be crying an awful lot.
• When you're mad at someone do you stay mad for a long time? Mad, no. But I'm not so good at forgetting past wrongs, when done deliberately.
• Do you think a lot of people think bad things about you? Yes. I am, at heart, a Minnesotan Lutheran girl.
• What's something you want to change about your life? I would like to be taller.
