southernmedicineI did the big 80-question meme thing I've been seeing all over my reading page. It's after midnight and my mind is buzzing and I need something to distract myself, so!
1. What curse word do you use the most?
Fuck, probably.
2. Do you own an iPod?
I have a second generation ipod and an ipod touch, neither of which I have used in over a decade. I honestly don't even know where they are, or if either of them will even turn on.
3. What person on your flist do you talk to the most?
buries or sweettartheart probably!
4. What time is your alarm clock set to?
Depends on the day, where I need to go and what I need to do. If it's not a work day and I'm not going anywhere, I don't set one.
5. Do you still remember the first person you kissed?
Sure do. A very sweet, cute kid named Cody. He was my little online boyfriend when I was 12, and while my family was traveling, my parents let me meet him when we passed near his town. They went off with his mom, and let us wander around and stuff, and he ended up kissing me when we sat on the swings in the park near his house.
6. Do you remember where you were on 9/11?
Yes. I was in the living room, getting ready to go to school. I saw the second impact live on the news, then had to go to school feeling confused and scared.
7. Would you rather take the picture or be in the picture?
Take the picture. Because I love taking pictures, and I hate the way I look, so being the photographer is perfect for me.
8. What was the last movie you watched?
It's called I Don't Understand You.
9. Do any of your friends have children?
Yeah, several!
10. Has anyone ever called you lazy?
Surely.
11. Do you ever take medication to help you fall asleep?
Occasionally I'll use melatonin or Benadryl, but I don't need it very often anymore, thankfully.
12. What cd is currently in your cd player?
I think it's the The Greatest Showman soundtrack.
13. Do you prefer regular or chocolate milk?
I don't really drink milk.
14. Has anyone told you a secret this week?
Not a secret, but I had a really deep, serious heart to heart about some pretty dark personal experiences with someone the other day.
15. When was the last time you had Starbucks?
Christmastime.
16. Can you whistle?
Yep.
17. What is the first thing you notice about the opposite sex?
Whether or not they seem dangerous.
18. What are you looking forward to?
Finding out whether we got our apartment. It's been a month of waiting.
19. Did you watch cartoons as a child?
Of course. Still do.
20. Do you own any band t-shirts?
I used to have more, but I got rid of a lot of them, as they were quite old. I still have a couple of Panic! at the Disco shirts that I got at the concert I went to, as well as a Black Parade hoodie I got from the My Chemical Romance show.
21. What will you be doing in one hour?
Watching youtube probably.
22. Is anyone in love with you?
My partner, previously of the That Person moniker.
23. What was the last song you heard?
Niamos! Cloud Remix, from the Andor soundtrack.
24. Last time you cried?
Couple of nights ago.
25. Are you on a desktop computer or a laptop?
Laptop
26. Are you currently wanting any piercings or tattoos?
Well, I have one tattoo currently, which is one more than I ever thought I would get. It needs some serious touching up, but I'm dragging my feet about it because getting it was the most awful experience. I do think I would like some constellations also; light, delicate dots and dashes should be a lot easier on me than the thick solid black shapes of my first tattoo. I also want to get my ears pierced. I have the cartilage of my left ear pierced, but I never just... pierced my ears.
27. What’s the weather like?
Hot and sunny, in Southern California? Groundbreaking.
28. Would you ever date a girl/guy covered in tattoos?
Yes and no. If by "covered" you mean "has a lot," sure. I'm not crazy about tattoos all over the face and head and neck, though. No shade to anyone who is, it's just not for me.
29. What did you do before this?
We had DnD tonight, then afterward I spent awhile on the phone with Blair, just chillin'. Talking about our stories. The future.
30. When is the last time you slept on the floor?
I don't remember, but it was probably at a con.
31. How many hours of sleep do you need to function?
Six, to function. I won't be happy about it, and I won't have a good day, but it's enough.
32. Do you eat breakfast daily?
I'm never awake early enough for breakfast. I'm nocturnal. I do love breakfast food, though, so if I find myself at a restaurant that offers breakfast food all day, I'll often eat it.
33. Are your days fast-paced?
Sometimes! When I've got a lot to do, or I'm traveling or at a convention or something. But my average days are pretty steady.
34. What did you do last night?
I stayed up very late talking on the phone with Blair about some writing plots, and then when she went to bed I watched a movie, watched a little youtube, and played my silly dog game.
35. Do you use sarcasm?
Sure. Not as much as I used to.
36. How old will you be turning on your next birthday?
41
37. Are you picky about spelling and grammar?
Yes.
38. Have you ever been to Six Flags?
Yeah! Not often though, it's a little too far away and they keep weird hours. They're only open certain times of the year, which is annoying.
39. Do you get along better with the same sex or the opposite sex?
I don't know. I trust women more, so there is that.
40. Do you like mustard?
Regular mustard, no. Honey mustard, very much yes. Dijon mustard, sometimes.
41. Do you sleep on your side?
Yes, I am a side sleeper. So much so that I have invested in a square pillow, which fits in that perfect 90 degree angle between neck and shoulder, to help me stay aligned.
42. Do you watch the news?
No.
43. How did you get one of your scars?
When I was little, I was climbing on a chair and looking through the cabinet in the kitchen where my family kept a lot of medicines and medical supplies. I took down the glass mercury thermometer, fell, and broke it right on my face, under my eye. I then locked myself in the bathroom before my mother could get to me, and as she stood there pounding on the door and demanding I open it, I was hollering back "I'm handling it!" So I still have a scar under my left eye from the glass.
44. Who was the last person to make you mad?
I don't get mad very often. So I'm not sure.
45. Do you like anybody?
You mean like-like? Of course. My babygirl miss Blair.
46. What is the last thing you purchased?
Today I bought a bottle of gatorade and a box of tampons.
47. What side of the heart do you draw first?
The right.
48. Can you dive without plugging your nose?
Yep. I've never held my nose when diving or swimming.
49. What color is your razor?
The one I have right now is pink, but I wouldn't exactly say I've been using it.
50. What is your blood-type?
I... actually don't know.
51. Who would you want to be tied to for 24 hours?
Pedro Pascal.
52. What is a rumor someone has spread about you?
Tumblr drama where someone went around telling all our mutual friends that I was talking shit about them. I wasn't. I was literally suffering a depressive episode and crying because I felt like all my friends didn't like me anymore. As you can imagine, this person only made things worse for me. Fun fact! It was the catalyst for me finally starting therapy for the first time!
53. How do you feel about carrots?
I like them. They're actually one of the only vegetables I eat on a regular basis.
54. How many chairs at the dining room table?
I think we've always had four.
55. Which is the best Spice Girl?
I was always partial to Mel B.
56. Do you know what time it is?
I always know what time it is, there's a little clock right there in the corner of the screen.
57. Do you know all the words to the Fresh Prince Theme Song?
Sure do.
58. What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator?
Have a minor panic attack. I'm claustrophobic.

I'm an Orbitz girlie.
60. T or F: All’s fair in love and war?
Absolutely not.
61. Do you have a crush on anyone?
Plenty of actors. No one in real life, except my partner.
62. Do you know how to use some words correctly, but not know the meaning?
I usually make sure I know the meaning of a word before I dare to use it, because I'm not looking to get called out.
63. Do you like to sleep?
I loooove to sleep.
64. Do you know which US states don’t use Daylight Savings Time?
I thought it was just Arizona. Are there more?
65. Do you know the song Total Eclipse of the Heart?
Yes.
66. Do you want a bright yellow ‘06 mustang?
No thank you?
67. What’s something you’ve always wanted?
A swimming pool.
68. What's the last thing you bought off of the internet?
A couple of pins.
69. Would you rather swim in the ocean or a lake?
The ocean, probably. I love swimming through the waves.
70. Do you wear a lot of black?
I do, actually.
71. Describe your hair
It's kept short, a little longer in the back and on the sides; some might call it mullet-esque, strictly speaking it is a "flow." It's getting very overgrown. I have brushed over bang-like hair in the front. It's dark brown currently, but has often been red or purple or even teal. If I don't brush it a certain way when it's wet and let it dry while it's flat, it'll end up HELLA wavy.
72. Do you have Entomophobia?
Big time.

So I'm told.

Half of them are here in California and half of them are scattered across the globe.

Yeah. While I don't spend a ton of time outside, I've always tanned very easily.
76. Are you a television addict?
"Addict" is a pretty strong descriptor. I watch a little bit every day, and keep track of what I watch for funsies, but no, I'm not addicted to tv.
77. Do you enjoy spending time with your mother?
I do not.
78. Are you a sugar freak?
Unfortunately yes. Massive sweet tooth.
79. Do you like orange juice?

80. What sign are you?
Gemini, or Wood Ox.
1. What curse word do you use the most?
Fuck, probably.
2. Do you own an iPod?
