Procrastination what?
Because blackbird was so nice about my stealing from her before...
Explain what ended your last relationship?
Complacency. And silence.
When was the last time you shaved?
Yesterday.
What were you doing this morning at 8 a.m.?
Sleeping. Maybe even snoring.
What were you doing 15 minutes ago?
Eating cinnamon and sugar sprinkled toast.
Are you any good at math?
Yeah. It used to be my favorite subject in school. And I don't even balance my checkbook now...
Your prom night, what do you remember about it?
Other than the fact that I went home at midnight because I had just come down with strep throat, you mean? Oh. Um. Well, not much really.
Do you have any famous ancestors?
Yeah. In a way. That I won't explain.
Have you had to take a loan out for school?
No.
Last thing received in the mail?
My BC driver's license.
How many different beverages have you had today?
Three. Tea, coffee and 7up (ew, Sprite is so much better.)
Do you ever leave messages on people’s answering machine?
Yes, yes I do. I do it so I can remind myself how much I dislike leaving messages, as they all seem to end with "umm, so yeah. bye." What can I say? I'm a whiz with words.
Who did you lose your CONCERT virginity to?
I'm ashamed about this now, since this is the third time in as many weeks that I've admitted this outloud to the internet. Jefferson Starship. At Disneyland. I was like 8. They were playing near Space Mountain, which is the one ride I stood in line for that day.
Do you draw your name in the sand when you go to the beach?
No, who does? I mean, I have once taken credit for a sand castle that I had no part in making, but seriously, writing my name? Nah uh.
What’s the most painful dental procedure you’ve had?
Before they attached the most hideous braces on my teeth - the ones that were banded around the teeth and not just glued on - they put this torture device on the roof of my mouth to make my molars sit farther apart from each other. There was a key that I could use to self inflict the pain, which I had to turn every day a half a turn for just under a whole month. AND THEN the bastard that was my orthodontist - the only guy I've ever seen in my life to have ear hair - he put the braces on and then gave me a retainer for my bottom jaw. I couldn't really eat much solid food for months. But I did have spaghetti a lot.
What is out your back door?
I'm so glad we have a balcony so that I can answer that there's a balcony out the back door! Finally! After 5 years of wanting a damn balcony. HA! (ahem, sorry.)
Any plans for Friday night?
Drinks. Out. Downtown. At a bar. With some people I don't know - hey, it's a big bar.
Do you like what the ocean does to your hair?
I have pin straight hair. It does nothing besides be straight, no matter the weather, style or environment. I fear that I must abstain from answering this question.
Have you ever received one of those big tins of 3 different popcorns?
Well, not me exactly, but my roommate from college was crazy about them, so we got at least one of them one year around Christmas I think. She also got a huge Cracker Jack tin (we called it a box but it wasn't) that later became the storage device for all sorts of random things. Hey! Superglue? In the Cracker Jack box. Mat cutter for the new pictures? Check the Cracker Jack box! Dremel tool? Have you checked the Cracker Jack box? Oh yeah. Scotch tape, duct tape, scissors, lint brush, lighters, shot glasses, votive candle holders? You know it! Seriously, everything went into that box.
Have you ever been to a planetarium?
I used to go see the Laserium show at least once a month at the Morrison Planetarium in Golden Gate Park in the early 90's. It was brilliant!
Do you re-use towels after you shower?
Yeah, why? Are they like underwears and shouldn't be used more than once between washings? Is this a rule that no one told me about?
Some things you are excited about?
Scarves. Photography (this is a new thing). Plants/Gardens/Flowers. Crisp Autumn air. Christmas-time.
What is your favorite flavor of JELL-O?
Is there any other flavor besides raspberry worth eating? I think NOT!
Describe your keychain(s)?
Three key rings chained together, an apartment building fob, a door key, a mail key and a carabiner. Oh and 2 hair ties.
Where do you keep your change?
In my wallet. Unless I've gone all annoyed and dumped the pennies in the bottom of my purse, which happens sometimes.
When was the last time you spoke in front of a large group of people?
2001 I think. And I have no idea what I would have talked about, but it would have had something to do with Psychology.
What kind of winter coat do you own?
A to-the-knees black wool coat. I don't know the proper fashion terms for it. It's warm.
What was the weather like on your graduation day?
I have been told it was exceptionally hot, but I can only remember the searingly bright sun and the outside ceremony and BLACK robes.
Do you sleep with the door to your room open or closed?
Both, but not at the same time.

The Cracker Jack box ruled.
And I'm telling you, if you just bread and fry the cinnamon and sugar sprinkled buttered toast, you'd LURVE it!
