plumtreeblossomEating a healthful, nutrient-rich breakfast of oatmeal and V-8, which also happens to be vegan and fat-free, entitles one to eat a Burger King Kids Meal for lunch.
1. What facial feature do you find the most attractive on others?
For me it's about how the whole face fits together, and I have an especial attraction to "quirky." I like prominent chins, unusual ethnic noses, and sunny smiles that make anyone's heart warm.
2. Would you vote for a woman candidate for president?
I'm atonished we haven't had one already. Yes, if she was the best candidate. (as would be the case for males)
3. Would you marry for money? How much?
Lets say I'm 65 and single, ready to retire from my job to let loose and enjoy galavanting the world. And lets say a phenominally wealthy 75 year old wanted a hot 6-something babe like me to galavant with, and he was likable and fun to be with (and still sexually functional). In such a scenario, sure I would. But for now, NO. I'm holding out for something deeper.
4. Have you had braces?
Nope.
5. Do you pluck your eyebrows?
No, they're so sparse as it is that I have to draw them in with an eye pencil.
6. Do you ever cut or hurt yourself?
What 15-year-old wrote these questions? No, I don't.
9. Do you use ICQ, AOL Buddy list etc., ?
No, and I hate all IM. I prefer proper e-mail, with capitalization, punctuation, and all the components of responsible written communication.
10. Do you like or dislike facial hair on others?
I like creative shaving -- soul patches, funky sideburns, pencil beards, muttonchops, rakish goatees, etc. I love those. I can't abide long beards or push-broom mustaches that extend beyond the upper lip. Those nauseate me, actually. Keep it short, boys. :-)
11. If you could live in any past time period, which would it be?
So many... European rennaissance, medieval Japan, American 1920's, so many. I wish time travel was real.
13. Do you wear shoes in the house or take them off?
Usually off, but I never require guests to take them off. I hate going to a no-shoes home when I haven't been told beforehand -- I've ruined so many pairs of nylons on on people's hardwood floors and would have brought socks had I known about their rule.
14. What is your favorite fruit?
Very ripe pears.
15. Do you eat wheat bread or white?
Wheat. Also rye, pump, and artisan breads. Love any bread except sourdough.
17. What is the last movie you saw?
It was only 2 weeks ago but I can't remember, so apparently it didn't make much of an impression.
18. Do you kiss on the first date?
I have. It all depends on the date and my attraction to him or lack thereof.
19. Are you photogenic?
Not at all.
20. Do you dream in color or black and white?
Color. I've never drempt in B&W that I can recall.
21. Are you wearing fingernail polish?
Yes. Frosty white, and I wear it every day.
22. Do you have any dimples?
I don't believe so.
23. Do you remember being born?
No. My earliest memory is from about age 6 months, of a pink mobile above my crib.
24. Why do you take surveys?
I like being asked about myself.
25. Do you drink alcohol?
Yes I do.
26. Did you like high school?
No, for the most part I hated it. Things only got better when I shucked my family's pressure to befriend the in-crowd and jocks, and stopped giving a shit what they thought of me. The I made friend with a clique called the "freaks" because they smoked pot, and they accepted me as is. All of my friends were older (my how things change) and by senior year they had already graduated, so that final year was sort of lonely.
27. What is the most beautiful language?
Facial/Body Language in silence.
28. When you are asleep do you like being kissed awake?
Who doesn't? :-)
29. Do you like sunrises or sunsets the most?
Well, sunrises remind me that I've been up all night probably doing something illicit, so sunsets generally go down sweeter.
30. Do you want to live to be 100?
Yes, if I'm of sound mind and relatively sound body (by that I mean continent and ambulatory. Especially continent.)
31. Do you think women should be expected to shave their body hair?
No, its a choice. I do myself, though.
32. Do you like salty food or sugary food the most?
Salty most of the time.
33. Is a flat stomach important to you?
For myself, I do work and aspire to have it as flat sa possible (which is never truly flat. In others I don't mind a tummy if it works well with the rest of their body.
34. Do you or have you played with a ouija board?
All the time as a kid.
35. Are you loyal?
Too much so sometimes.
36. Are you tolerant of other people's beliefs?
I have a very hard time with religious fundamentalists of any stripe, but I try to avoid them rather than fight about it. Other than that, I'm quite tolerant, I believe.
37. When you watch movies at home, do you like the lights on or off?
Depends on the movie, the company, etc.
38. Do you believe in magic?
I try to.
39. Do you have nightmares frequently?
That comes and goes in waves.
40. Do you like your nose?
It wouldn't be the one I chose if there were a Noses-R-Us store, but I don't have major issues with it.
41. Do you like abstract art?
Sometimes.
42. Do you think you can draw well?
Not at all. Which is sad, because in junior high I could.
43. Do you listen to music daily?
Most days.
44. Do you like to watch cartoons?
Only things like South Park or The Tick.
45. At what age did you find out that Santa Claus wasn't real?
I never really bought the whole Santa Claus ticket. I remember being 4 and faking belief in him (complete with over-acting adoration) because I thought that once my infidel disbelief was revealed I would no longer get any presents). At 5 I "outed" myself to my mom while she was on the toilet.
46. How many pairs of shoes do have in your closet?
about 15, only 4 of which I wear regularly.
47. Do you like to wear the same shoes everyday or do you like a variety?
I rotate. And I'm a boot person.
48. Do you write poetry?
Bad angst poetry and hearbreak poetry. Scroll back to April/May for a taste, and don't say I didn't warn you.
49. Do you snore?
I never used to, but lately I've been told I "girl snore" if I sleep on my back.
50. Do you sleep more on your back, front, or sides?
Sides.
51. Would you rather have a poodle or a rottweiler?
A Border Collie.
52. Do you lick stamps?
Yes.
53. Do you use an electric can opener?
No, we don't have enough electrical outlets in the kitchen to dedicate one to a can opener.
54. Have you ridden in a hot air balloon?
No, not thus far.
55. Which hurts the most, physical or emotional pain?
Emotional, definitely. I actually have a very high physical pain threshhold, but emotional pain destroys me.
56. Do you think balding men should shave their heads?
My real preference is that once they're cleanly bald on top, they grow the back and sides into a long silky ponytail.
57. Do you know anyone who is clinically depressed?
Several.
58. Do you prefer a piano or a violin?
Piano.
59. Are you a sex addict?
No, which is not to say I don't like it, but I have no addiction to sex itself.
60. Do you know someone who has cancer?
Not that I'm aware of.
61. Do you hunt?
Certainly not. I don't even kill spiders in my house -- I scoop 'em onto a piece of paper and toss 'em out the door.
62. Do you like fast food joints, or expensive restaurants?
Both, depending on the mood.
64. Do you have a middle name?
Yes. And the less said about it the better.
65. Are you basically a happy person?
Most of the time, yes. This year has been very emotionally difficult, but I'm feeling better slowly but surely.
66. Are you tired?
Not at the moment.
67. Did you drink anything with caffeine in it today?
No, but I'm dying for coffee and I can't have it (due to the herbal program).
68. Have you ever met anyone off the internet?
Many, many, many. Some wonderful, some wretched.
69. How many phones do you have in your house?
One land line with two extensions, my cell and Chris' cell.
70. How long is your hair?
Just past shoulder length.
71. Do you get along with your parents?
I get along with my mother most of the time. My dad is dead.
72. What color of eyes do you prefer?
I love any color. I'm envious of people who have two different colors of eyes, or whose eyes change color.
73. Are you an active person?
Downright hyper sometimes, other times not.
75. What does your bedroom look like?
It's the front bedroom of an attic apartment. It has a bed alcove where my queen-sized bed tries to fit but is a little too large. Hanging over it is an Indian tapestry and a tapestry of Stonehenge, and the walls are decorated with things I've brought home from my travels abroad. I have an oversized desk where my computer lives. Pretty rugs on the floor, a too-small closet. I have a big girly mirror covered with photos and Mardi Gras beads. Two cats are often sleeping in my soft desk chair.
