certain kinds of intimacy emerge on a phone call that might never occur if you were sitting right next to the other person

26 Favourite Tumblr blog? I'm not on Tumblr anymore 

27 Bottled water or tap water? whichever. Around here, either is fine. 

28 What makes you happy? today: taking a walk in a long-sleeved t-shirt; an unexpected and very welcome phone call; homemade soup for supper with Mom & Dad; the Steelers on TV; and a cool night for sleeping off a migraine 

29 Post a GIF of what you’re currently feeling right now.

  

30 Do you study better with or without music? without, definitely. I'm easily distracted by music. 

31 Dogs or cats? cats, duh 

32 If you were a crayon, what colour would you be? periwinkle 

33 Playstation or Xbox? makes no difference to my life 

34 Would you swim in the lake or ocean? yep 

35 Do you believe in magic? only in a metaphorical sense, e.g. "it's not the size of the wand but the magic in it"... 

36 What colour shirt are you wearing? heather gray with red and blue, and a yellow-beaked bird in the middle 

37 Can you curl your tongue? yup, and I don't even need to use my hands!

38 Do you save money or spend it? trying (hard!) to save 

39 Is there anything pink within 10 feet of you? I am swaddled in a coral pink plush blanket! 

40 Do you have any obsessions right now? nah 

41 Have you ever caught a butterfly? oh my GOD no yuck

42 Are you easily influenced by other people? depends on the person. Some people have a lot of sway with me, and others couldn't convince me that the sky is blue. 

43 Do you have strange dreams? they don't seem strange to me, but others have said they're, uhm, excessively vivid 

44 Do you like going on airplanes? I don't love it 

45 Name one movie that made you cry. Good Will Hunting. The last time I saw it was a year or so ago, and the poignance of Robin Williams performance had me in tears 

46 Peanuts or sunflower seeds? peanuts. I think sunflower seeds are awful.

47 If I handed you a concert ticket right now, who would you want the performer to be? Alkaline Trio 

48 Are you a picky eater? I'm in recovery from that... 

49 Are you a heavy sleeper? I'm either heavy or light - nothing in between. 

50 Do you fear thunder / lightning? nope, just wind
