*What do you do (for a living) to be able to keep your LitNet addiction going? And are you happy with your chosen profession?*
I work as a lab assistant in a veterinary hospital, and no I'm not crazy over the job, but it's better than a lot of alternatives I could be working in.

*What question would you like to ask yourself?*
Uh, what are you doing with your life?

I'd like to teach one day, but I need to save up money first too. I kinda answered this before

I could do to lose a few pounds.

Sleeping, but I'm watching TMZ.

Labyrinth!
*Last movie you watched?
I saw the recent Joan Rivers documentary, just to make sure I was still gay.
*Favorite painting?*
Liberty Leading the People, by Delacroix.
*Wonderful Superman or depressing Batman?*
Batman, Superman is so boring, plus his villains suck. It would be nice to know if the rumours about him and Robin are true or not.
What was the best thing that happened to you during this year?
Mostly an uneventful year... Hmm, I got my driver's license, rather late in life. That's something, right?
*If you could send one thing to the Room 101, one would that be?*
I'm afraid of heights, but it's hard to send that to a room.

Still in pursuit, and I imagine I always will be.

Always use protection.
