cant stand it. avoid it by not caring about the huge creases/wrinkles in all my clothes, & rejecting all "respectable" clothes.
What is a good cure for a hangover?(have felt like **** since thursday morning)
After you get nice and drunk, hit the green (marijuana) once or twice, than go to bed. You'll wake up nice and early and awake! This is tried and true folks.
When was the last time you hit the green?
what time is it???
;)
What is the best advice you ever got?
just give it a try, you'll like it ;)
Do you have houseplants? If so do you name them? If so, what are their names?
i used to name them (college, first time 'round). i don't have any since i moved from california, but had this LUSH ivy that was my baby/pet/owner. i loved her and would admire the new baby sprouty things on/talk with her ALL the time. she was huge, and sometimes her personality overwhelmed me. then i had a fern, and she was in very good shape, after an initial drying up when i first got her. i had her in a decorative terra cotta pot and - oh, notice i'd no male plants. :D i had beans and tomatoes on my back patio, which were very bossy and intelligent and didn't need me at all 'cept for water. so different from house plants. sort of like the dif between outdoor/indoor cats. then i had a bunch of plants i didn't know the names of, but one was three times higher when i gave her away than when i bought her
are you bored yet, oops?
and a beautiful neon-pink flowered geranium, and a very emotional basil - but i could never grow time OOPS :D :D thyme, lol, very well.
basically they were named dear, honey, sweetheart, etc.
do you ever take pictures in dangerous positions?
I can never talk my girlfriend into that ;)
What's the picture on your desktop?
it is a picture of my boyfriend and i taken on Valentine's this year...it is so refreshing to see him in a suit, instead of camouflage.....
do you own a suit (guy) or formal gown (girl)?
(or is it suit (girl) or formal gown (guy)?)
No. I wore a hideous vintage bridesmaid's dress to the prom with a bowtie and vintage tuxedo jacket, and I got rid of the dress again but that jacket is mine forever! I love it.
How often do you vaccuum? (And does your carpet smell like milk in the summer too?)
**Also, previously, "Do you know where I can get a top hat?"**
um, no. mm, wouldn't it be nice if men wore period costumes from different times and places 'round the world a few times a year. oooh!
have you ever mail ordered gourmet chocolates/cheeses/etc/ (nothing naughty!) to yourself?
*i haven't but am so considering it. the food! i mean :D
http://www.top-hats.com/ :)
http://www.formalwear.org/public/resources/tophat.html
and google had more
um, no...my carpet doesnt smell like milk in the summer. i wonder if that is perhaps not a cry for help from your carpet?
i vacuum about three times a week, but only because i have this awful mint green carpet all through my apartment, that shows everything that falls on it, like molecules of dust and each cat hair. i would like to vacuum about once a year. hate the noise and dust generated by a vacuum
do you dust regularily? or do you let the dust gather in a blanket-like fashion, to protect the finish on your surfaces?
did you ever see such a "jinx" - we both said um, no!!
hunh? what happened to the top hat question?
lol, i am so very confused...again!
:confused:
LOL oh no I've caused so much trouble. I deleted the top hat one immediately because I realized it was like the third time I've asked for information for myself. :p Wow, you're quick. But THANK YOU amuse!! And, yes, I wish constantly that guys would re-adopt that regency style they have in the Jane Austen movies :D
Only dust when my grandparents come visit, and only then after repeated nagging by my mother do I get the washcloth and notice that yes, indeed, there is about half an inch of dust on all the surfaces.
Do you think everyone should write a page of *something* each day, even if they suck and it's just a diary and they have nothing to say and no one will ever see it?
Maybe not everybody, but by and large and for the most part, yes (btw, sure wish I had)
Moll Flanders or Hester Prin as a role model?
Hester Prynne - her sheer determination, strength and outstanding commitment make her an admirable and highly attractive character. On the other hand, I'm sure I'd have had plenty of fun with Moll Flanders.
What subject did you hate most at school?
That depends on what era of school. In grade school it was handwriting. Can you believe that they actually taught a whole class in handwriting?!? What a bunch of crap!! Anyways, I also hated just about any other subject in grade school, so I guess that shouldn't count. In highschool it was science. I HATED Chemistry and Biology, but I quite enjoyed physics. In university, its gotta be computers, but only because I already know how to use everything I'll ever need to know about them. Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and enough about the system to do some quality gaming.
What colour are the underpants that you're wearing right now?
hot pink....
;)
was that a trick question?
Nope, I was just curious.
How many countries have you been to?
Haven't we had this question before? 4, not counting the US.
Will some small prudish person complain to Admin about Kik again for asking about underwear?
I hope not. After all, underwear can be rather inspirational (Jarvis ****er, for instance, wrote a rather wonderful song all about it).;)
What does it mean to be human?
To be human is to make mistakes, like accidently using the "C" word when your trying to spell Jarvis Cokker. (misspelled on purpose so those to don't know what the "C" word is could know what AP was talking about. :D
Whats the most random, bizzar thing that you've ever seen?
Oh my. I guess I gotta be honest here. That would be during a time when I was a wee bit more naive, and webcams were still newish, and I discovered what "I have a cam" means. Some people should NOT have cams, especially those who are inclined not to tell 14-year-old girls the truth about their age. :(
Do you keep your PM's or delete them all?
keep em, till they get out of control and in one ruthless move, delete them all. mind you i do the same thing with email. i just checked and i still have every single email that my boyfriend has sent me since the beginning of december. i think that takes up more space on my comp than all my music!
how do you manage your volume of email?
delete 'em all :D Unless they contain a link I need, or funny quotes, or I plan to RE: or FWD: in the future.
Do you have a separate address to give sites you think might spam you?
yes, but i often forget to give it to them, so i sort through about a million email a day. duh....
how many mailing addresses have you had? do you remeber them all?
ooh good one. I'll try to think....

...plus three others I use now, which I'm not gonna post on a public forum, silly. :D
What is the greatest amount of time you've spent traveling (car, plane, train ride, cruise.. you get it)
32 hour train ride that was supposed to be 20 hours from portalnd OR to Santa Barbara CA, but another train derailed and we went to nevada instead.
How many times have you been stung by a bee?
too many times to count...i love the fuzzy ones, always want to pet them.
How on earth would you deal with major brutal horrible terrifying writer's block?
(if you happened to have it, that is)
Oh, fun. Poor simon.
Oopsie -- too slow.. new answer: I stay up for hours and hours and hours until the front of my brain starts to swell and my prefrontal cortex stops blocking the dang subconscious, and it all just sort of starts tumbling out. Not a healthy system, but (unreliably) effective. :D
Do you wear a watch?
yes and freak out when i forget to put it on. failing that i check my cell phone. i only have two watches right now but s'pose that's enough. and i've also got the time on my 2 little accu-check thingamadoos.
now, here in the right :p thread, what dream would you like to help someone else accomplish?
Never wear watches or anything jewelery oriented, don't like it hanging off my skin
If you have ever snowboarded, the first time you got off the ski lift did you fall?
Never snowboarded or skied, so I can't answer that one. Az -- rather help someone accomplish one dream, I would feel I had helped them accomplish many yet to come if because of me they came to feel more value in themselves and their abilities and their potential for greatness. That's what I wish I could do for all the people I care about. :)
How many cords are attached to your computer? (the ones behind the desk, like the speakers, modem, power strip, etc.)
one could choke on the cords if one fell behind the desk...i reccomend strongly staying away from cords if you have even a small fear of snakes or tangly things.
webcam, pda, monitor, mouse, keyboard, mic, phone line in, phone line out, ethernet cable to modem, modem to router, router to cable, speaker, sub, power to sub, lamp, power to pda, printer, power to printer, power to phone, power to monitor, main power to computer and power to small white christmas lights that line the edge of my desk all around.
yikes, i am not a power smart ad....
what's that? 22 or so?
how many lamps in your bedroom?
2, but I need another because it's L-shaped (used to be the attic -- just moved in last fall -- whoopee!) and it doesn't take lighting very well.
Do you eat breakfast?
Only when I get the chance. But I must have at least one cup of coffee. btw, I lived in an "L" shaped attic room for three years myself, and I loved it! I had a little kitchenette, bathroom, fridge, microwave... my own free apartment (I lived with my parents then).
Do you put snack cakes in the freezer? My husband does and I've never heard of that before.
I can't eat them. I'm not big on sweets to begin with, but I worked in a Little Debbie snack cake factory and after about a week I couldn't even look at one. I havn't eaten a little debbie, or other LD like snack cake in about 6 years.
Do you paint? Do you paint well?
Never. Although I have a small freezer, I never have snack cakes.
We share 95% of our genetic makeup with chimpanzees. Why do we think 5% makes so much difference?
I don't wear any make up. Genetic or otherwise. :) :) :)
