he doesn't have feelings, he only has streams of words about feelings

  1. Favorite style of clothing? jeans, t-shirt, something long-sleeved (with sleeves long enough for me, which is rare). Sandals in summer, boots in winter.
  2. Do I ever get “good morning” or “good night” texts? morning, yes, maybe once a month? Night almost never (and so very treasured).
  3. Have I ever kissed the last person I texted? ugh, no
  4. When did I last hold hands? it's been about a year and a half
  5. How long does it take me to get ready in the morning? around 45 minutes, maybe an hour on a bad day
  6. Have I shaved my legs in the past three days? uh, no. Have you seen the weather report lately?
  7. Where am I right now? home. From what I hear, that makes me a hermit. (Yes, I am insulted.)
  8. Do I have someone of the opposite sex I can tell everything to? I have someone who I could tell everything to. I don't, but I could.
  9. How often do I wear a fake smile? every damned day during the week. Every single day. Prehaps this is another one of those "...and that's when I knew I was an adult" signs.
  10. When was the last time I hugged someone? the BFFs, I'm sure
  11. Is there anyone I trust even though I should not? an interesting question. I spend a lot of time thinking about trust (no pun intended). How it can be easy to trust someone without loving them. How it can be hard to love someone without trusting them. 
  12. What is something I disliked about today? my clueless neighbor was banging on his fence at 6:30 AM. Bad enough to be an annoying ass, but why does he have to do it so damned early on the weekends?!
  13. If I could meet anyone on this earth, who would it be? the father of the person on the other end of #2, above. He (the dad) is totally adorable and I half love him already. I can't even imagine how much better (and worse) it would be once I'd met him.
  14. What do I think about most? the future
  15. Do I prefer to be behind the camera or in front of it? behind, of course
  16. Do I prefer talking on the phone or video chatting online? video chatting is an abomination of nature
  17. Do I believe in ghosts? How about aliens? not "ghosts" per se, but there are aspects of that sort of thing that are too real to discount. Aliens? Feh.
  18. Do I believe in magic? of a sort
  19. Do I believe in luck? definitely--both good and bad
  20. What's the weather like right now? cold as all get out. I hate this.
  21. What was the last book I've read? it was The Collected Poems of Galway Kinnell
  22. Do I like the smell of gasoline? ugh, no
  23. What was the worst injury I've ever had? worst is relative. Yesterday my phone receiver (at work) slipped off my shoulder and slammed into my arm so hard that I thought I'd broken it. There is a big lump and a bruise on it. That's good enough for now.
  24. Do I spend money or save it? I'm getting way better at saving, but at this point that saving is for the purpose of paying bills
  25. Can I touch my nose with my tongue? yup
