Personal meme gacked from ccdesan


1. Can you fill this out without lying?
Sure. I’m not big on lying.

2. What was the last thing you put in your mouth?
Cheez-It.

3. Who was your last text message from?
Eh, some credit union imposter.

4. Where was your default picture taken?
Home.

5. Last person you rode in a car with under the age of 20?
Probably my sister back in 2004.

6. Name someone that made you laugh today?
No one, alas. For all my love of humor, I don’t laugh out loud much.

7. How late did you stay up last night and why?
About midnight. It’s the norm for me; I never quite outgrew my college habit. But hey, it beats the usual bedtime of many undergrads.

8. If you could move somewhere else, would you?
Not in the near future.

9. Ever been kissed under fireworks?
Nope.

10. Which of your friends lives closest to you?
My office mate probably lives the closest of any non-family friend I’ve seen in years.

Calling. It’s faster, easier, and less expensive.

13. How do you feel about Dr. Pepper?
Yyyummyyy.

14. When was the last time you cried really hard?
Many years ago, maybe seventh grade at the latest. I may not laugh enough, but at least I don’t miss tears.

Either at home or soon to leave his office. Both are here in DC.

16. Where are you at right now?
My office.

A ticket to a West Virginia resort.

One of my parents.

20. Was yesterday better than today?
So far, no. Not for me, anyway. But I can’t say for sure until midnight.

Without TV programming? I do that all the time, except for the Academy Awards. Without a TV set? I’d miss video games and movies, but I’d live.

22. Are you mad about anything?
Not really.

23. Do you think relationships are really worth it?
You mean romantic relationships? I wouldn’t know, but I like to think so.

For certain values of “extreme,” last week, when Final Fantasy IV: The After Years proved to be incomplete.

Night in, usually.

27. What items could you not go without during the day?
Food, water, and oxygen are about it.

At my most generous and daring, I might let them drink through a second straw.

My grandfather, in 2004, a few months before he died.

It’s comfortable now, but I don’t want it to be like this in a decade.

Zero. I must have driven fewer than ten times since I got my license.

Mainly just fictional characters. I make a point not to wish long-term ill on even the most wicked and annoying real people.

About a dozen older messages and anywhere from 0 to 30 new ones, depending partly on the activity of some mailing lists.

35. Can you easily tell if someone’s fake?
Not usually, I’d say.

36. Say you were given a drug test right now, would you pass?
Yup. Haven’t even eaten a poppy seed bagel lately. Well, unless the test detected caffeine from the chocolate bar I ate a few hours ago…

41. Name something you have to do today?
I think I’ve fulfilled all my responsibilities for the day, most recently editing an office blog post. But I do pretty much have to leave and go home.

42. Can you whistle?
A bit. I was a late bloomer in this area, thanks in part to the gap between my youthful incisors.

43. Do you sleep on your side, stomach, or back?
I roll on my back and sides while trying to go to sleep, but I think I usually wake up on a side. I don’t lie on my stomach unless it’s hot and my back is very sweaty.

44. Do you think too much or too little?
Too much, I’d say.

No. I’m just not very emotive in person.

The question is, can I determine the truth?

47. What was the last book you read?
To the end? Watchmen. Still reading? Shadowmarch by Tad Williams. Sure hope to finish it before my vacation.

When I leave the house, my watch. At home, no.

49. What were you doing 30 minutes ago?
Looking at deviantART.

Probably my mom. My dad loves me too but doesn’t say it as often. Guess which one I take after.

51. Have you ever dyed your hair?
I bought some purple dye back in college, but when I heard what it would take to make it work right on brown hair, I chickened out.

Ripe cantaloupe, among other things.

55. What do you want right now?
I could use some dinner.

56. Have you ever worn the opposite sex's clothing?

57. Look behind you, what do you see?
A map of the U.S. I like practical decorations.

58. Have you ever worked in a food place?
Does CVS count?

59. What would you name your future daughter?
I wouldn’t know for sure until I saw her, but I’m somewhat partial to “Vanessa” and “Zoe.” I would not give her a name based on a male name, as pretty as “Julia” is.

60. What are your summer plans for 2009?
A nine-day visit to New Mexico and a weekend visit to West Virginia. No international adventure this year.

Don’t have one.

Aww. I've seen the phrase expressed a bit less lolcattish, but this is just as nice.
