1) Elaborate on your profile picture.
From a Gio ad and I have no idea who he is but isn't he luscious.
2) Ever have a near-death experience?
Seemed like it at the time, probably not. Life felt very quiet and calm when it happened.
3) Name an obvious quality you have.
Being curious about the world, what's happening and what's in it.
4) What's the name of the song that's stuck in your head right now?
Thank God there isn't one right now.
5) Name a celebrity you would marry?
There isn't one, besides I look at the person inside for what I'd want to marry and how can you tell that through the glamour?
6) Has anyone ever said you look like a celebrity?
Nope.
7) Do you wear a watch?
Yes. This doesn't mean I look at it often, *coughs* especially during the summer but watches are useful tools.
8) Do you like pain?
Sometimes. Miss not drinking Pepsi anymore for the pain of the bubbles burning as they go down my throat. For other pain examples I'd have to know you really really well.
9) Do you like to shop?
If I had the money, oh yeah.
10) What was the last thing you paid for with cash?
Big & Tasty, fries, 6 McDoubles avec queso.
11) What is your favorite lamp that you own?
Not a favorite but the one that lets me see in the dark so I don't kill myself tripping on books someone has left on the floor. Would glare at that someone but he's sleeping.

15) Ocean or pool?
Ocean. Not to swim mind you because I have a fear of water. Spas make me very very nervous if I'm in them. If I'm beside the water though then the moving water is fascinating and exciting. Pools just lay there and lying in them is wallowing *yughic = yuck +ugh +ich*.

43 and 45- LMAO!
53- Didnt even think of that but would have to agree. Although I have a new rule that I am not allowed into a bookstore without a chaperone. Problem is, most of my friends like books too and need chaperones of their own. Its like two alcoholics walking into a bar.

Date: 2010-07-16 01:41 am (UTC)Water is scary. My father couldn't float and if he got water in his ears he couldn't tell up from down. I get water in my ears and it's like I've drunk wine minus the headache. They had to give me flippers in swim class because when I'd flutter kick I'd go feet first through the water instead of head first like all normal people. If I float in a pool I can't relax because I can hear the pool's pump. Maybe I drown in a prior life. Showers are the way to go. Forget bodies of water unless they are people; and I KNOW those are water balloons waiting to be popped with needles.
What is the reason to pay for 600 count cotton sheets (oooooo so soft) and not get as much body to sheet contact. Cooler too. I'm a sensual being who more and more is becoming skin hyper-sensitive. If a hair gets between my skin and my clothing it drives me crazy with itching.
Books. My drug. I work in a library which I'm lucky is for primarily Middle Schoolers. Should have seen what it was like when I worked for a major bookstore. At Christmas they increased the employee discount to 40%. I was so owned.
Birds are interesting. Maybe not as much as bugs but still interesting. When I first moved here we kept finding small grass snakes impaled on the branches of our newly planted 5' pecan tree. So angry at the evil neighborhood children.. found out it was a bird's larder. Squirrels bury acorns to dig up later. That's what the bird was doing but with snakes.

Date: 2010-07-17 05:43 pm (UTC)We had some bees visit the holly hedge and get caught by an enterprising spider but the bee count is low this year and I want my squash and cantaloupes to fruit which they aren't doing. Think it's lack of bees. Maybe I need to plant flowers to lure the bees to come visit.

Date: 2010-07-19 04:02 pm (UTC)Haven't been that many this year, they usually cover the hedge, but the weathers been all over the place too.
My damn courgettes aren't doing as well as hoped. Got the plants off my dad complete with fungus grr finally got two growing now though so fingers crossed. Good luck with yours.
