there's none so blind as those who will not listen

1. Favourite colour(s)? blue, gray

16. Favourite fruit? peaches

17. Favourite non-alcoholic drink? Coke - the regular, full-fuel kind

18. Worst thing you’ve ever tasted? oh my! Well, it was probably something from a party at the University of Mitten. During my four years there, I went to so many whine-and-cheese nights featuring questionable exploratory foods.

19. Do you enjoy any unusual food combinations that others find unappealing? only one 'other'

23. Do you have a high pain tolerance? obviously

24. Softest article of clothing that you own? a few years ago (the coldest winter we've had in a very long time) I received, as a gift, an off-white close-neck sweater. It is made of something so soft, I can't even describe it. The problem? It is ugly, unflattering, and causes the most incredible static. If I even get near it, my hair stands out around my head like Albert Einstein's. I almost never wear it.
