randomness quiz

Copied this from Kristy's blog.

1. When you look at yourself in the mirror, what's the first thing you look at?
My hair, to see if I need a haircut (even if I just got it cut yesterday).

2. How much cash do you have on you?
$65, because I just got paid at rehearsal last night.

3. What's a word that rhymes with "TEST"?
Best.

4. Favorite plant?
Mimosa pudica, the sensitive plant that folds up when you touch it.

5. Who is the 4th person on your missed call list on your cell phone?
I don't have any missed calls, but my fourth last received call was from Allen.

6. What is your main ring tone on your phone?
Maple Leaf Rag, because no one else uses it and I can easily tell it's my phone that's ringing.

7. What shirt are you wearing?
Ash gray t-shirt with a grayish-blue unbuttoned shirt on top (what my friends call "shirt with a shirt"; yes I'm stuck in the '90s sometimes).

8. Do you "label" yourself, could you?
I label myself "Grammar Nazi," Cap'n Comma-Splice.

9. Name the brand of your shoes you're currently wearing?
Nike.

10. Bright or Dark Room?
Both: one of the sets of lights is burnt out and we don't have any more bulbs.

11. What do you think about the person who took this survey before you?
If I may be perfectly serious for a moment, I think Kristy has been a wonderful addition to Tom's life, and I'm sure he'd agree that he wouldn't be the same without her.

12. Ever "spilled the beans"?:
Oh, all the time. I have trouble keeping a secret unless someone asks me not to tell; otherwise I feel compelled to share whatever bit of amusing/shocking news I might have. I'm working on it, but just so you know, if you tell me something and don't want it spread far and wide, don't assume that I'll be able to discern what's considered public or private. :)

13. What were you doing at midnight last night?:
Packing my lunch for today.

14. What did your last text message you received on your cell phone say?:
I've never received a text message, other than from Verizon to tell me my prepay account has been renewed.

15. Do you ever click on "Pop Ups" or Banners?
I don't usually see them. Hurrah for Safari's popup/ad blocker!

16. What's a saying that you say a lot?:
With my taco buddies, "Yayyyyyyyyyyyy." Around my college friends, I start most sentences with, "Gah, Mr. [action/adjective of person I'm speaking to]." For example, if Jason says, "Oh, you should read today's Family Circus," I would reply, "Gah, Mr. Reads the Family Circus." A variant on this theme is cap'n, which has a similar structure: "Gah, Cap'n Reads the Family Circus over there." It's all quite simple, really, and we have a rather storied dialect, mostly thanks to me.

17. Who told you they loved you last?:
To tell the truth, I don't recall; but then, I think actions of love speak louder than words, so I don't get hung up about it.

18. Last furry thing you touched?:
Sad to say, I think it was Belle, and that was August 31st. Does anyone have a beagle we can rent for a day?

19. How many drugs have you done in the past three days?
NONE. It's nice not being on any prescriptions anymore.

20. How many rolls of film do you need to get developed?:
None. I have the digital for quick stuff and haven't gone shutter-bugging for a while with the film cam. I'm quite jealous of Allen's digital SLR camera.

21. Favorite age you have been so far?:
24, I suppose. Ages 22-24 were sort of "limbo" ages, because I was no longer a student but didn't quite feel like an adult yet. 25 feels more like a milestone.

22. Your worst enemy?:
I'm pretty sure that would be Tim Kingman. Or GT.

23 What is your current desktop picture?
This one from my Cascade Park shoot a few years ago.

24. What was the last thing you said to someone?
"No thanks, I had a bagel."

25. If you had to choose between a million bucks or to be able to change a major regret, which would it be?
Hmm... I don't think I have any regrets that would be worth that much, so I'm going to pick Moolah for $1,000,000, Alex.

26. Do you love/like someone?
Myself. :D
