in which she indulges, just for a moment, in fantasy

1. If someone were to look on your bed, what would they find? The jeans and belt that I wore today, and a bunch of mushed-up covers from last night. It was WAY too hot up here (77°) to sleep with the A/C off, but it was like 60° outside, so It was WAY too cool to have the A/C on. There are times when I HATE sleeping here!
2. Do you go to the bathroom with the door open or closed? Depends on the circumstances, but WAY more often closed than open.
3. Are your underwear and socks folded in your drawer or just thrown in? Folded, but some of my sox live on the top of a sort of shelf and so get sort of smooshed occasionally. I also have a small box of random tights & hose in which the contents are rolled.
4. Are you a cuddler? I would be.
5. What would someone find if they looked under your bed? Some board games, a flat bin of gift wrap & associated supplies, and a flat bin of clothes that I wear infrequently.
6. Something that happened today that made you angry? Just the typical struggles with OCLC corrections.
7. What were you doing before this survey? Taking a cool shower. (Surprise! It's 78° in my apartment right now. Glargh.)
8. What will you do after the survey? Eat dinner & read.
9. Marriage or living together? Whateverthefuckever.
10. What shirt are you wearing now? Indigo Eddie Bauer cami
11. Do you sing? Badly, and only when I'm alone (currently "All I Know" by Art Garfunkel).
12. Do you de-label your beer bottles? Not at home. Sometimes in a bar, if I'm uncomfortable (I'm picturing a specific instance in which a friend would NOT let something go until I spilled the truth, so I fidgeted while I delayed the inevitable).
13. Do you talk about your feelings or hide them? I talk too much.
14. Is there something you regret and wish you could take back? Yes. Endless lists.
15. Last argument you got into? There was a Stapler Incident at work....
16. Do you tend to rip the paper off water bottles? No. What the hell? I think the point of this is "Are you diagnosably ADHD or OCD?", and my answer is No.
17. What do you like most about the person you like? His humor; surprising sweetness; the way he says "fuckin'" like I say "uh," every-other-word; the crispy blond curls on the backs of his fingers; the bow in his upper lip...but it really doesn't matter, does it?
18. How long does it take for you to fall asleep at night? Sometimes it probably happens before I'm actually in bed (i.e. while I'm brushing my teeth). Sometimes it takes hours of tossing & turning.
19. Current song on MySpace? The only MySpace song I ever had was "I Hear the Bells" by Mike Doughty. I'd imagine if I had one right now it would be "All My Days" by Alexi Murdoch.
20. When you shut off your alarm clock, do you tend to fall back asleep? Yes
21. If you were given the chance to take care of a monkey for a weekend would you? Good God no.
22. What is the current advertisement on the side of the screen? N/A (thank you Blogger!)
23. What are you looking forward to in the next few months? Getting drunk way more than I "should". Seeing Dan. Perhaps taking a trip.
24. It's midnight. Who are you texting? Ulysses, his brother, or BF.
25. It's Wednesday afternoon. Where are you usually? Work
26. Honestly, if you could have ANYONE in the world, who would it be? Assuming this means "date" or "be involved with" and not "enslave": Johnnie
27. Your Christmas list consists of?
    • A new paraffin wax machine, to replace the one that I ruined recently.
    • The contents of my Amazon wish list
    • A new car
    • Another tattoo (yes, I already know what I want)
    • A new job
    • The Canon camera that I mentioned recently
    • A quesadilla maker (with which my life would be truly complete)
28. Your best friend just asked you out and you say...? "My mall or yours?" or "Tea or bookstore?" or "Did you make krumkake?"
29. You're going to Manhattan for shopping, where do you go first? No, thank you. I have not the slightest desire.
30. You need a new pair of jeans, what store do you go to first? levis.com
31. How do you feel about your hair? It's fine. It gets the job done.
32. What time do you wake up for school work? One alarm is set for 6:37. The other is set for 6:57. I'm usually upright before the second rings.
33. What movie is in your DVD player? Romeo Must Die
34. If you could move away, no questions asked, where would you move? Miami
35. How much do looks matter to you in a guy/girl? It is often the beginning. I wouldn't (couldn't) date someone that I found unattractive - it is in the eye of the beholder, after all, and attraction is the whole point - but I also realize that affection makes a person infinitely more [physically] attractive.
36. What's the greatest thing that happened to you today? Molson Canadian.
37. How many TRUE best friends do you have? Three
38. What would you change about your life right now? Greater opportunities. Less conscious, difficult sacrifice. More sleep. Less recrimination.
39. What's the best feeling in the world? Communion (no, I'm not talking about the religious)
