I liked these questions, had to think answering them, and thought I'd pass them along.

1. What LJ interests, if any, are listed only by you? Can you tell me anything cool about 'em?

2. Do you have a favourite article of clothing or jewelry? What is it?
my grandmother's necklace. she never took it off, even when she took me swimming in the neighbor's pool. i have very vivid memories of the way the sun and the water hit it.

whedonverse, veronica mars

4. What would you most like to be doing, right at this moment?
sleeping

5. Do you know what you're going to order before you go into a restaurant?
depends on the restaurant

6. What's your favourite book? Why?
that's not a fair question. :) diane duane's cat wizardry books, the callahan chronicles, island of the blue dolphins, macho sluts, and a few others i could remember if i wasn't so tired.

7. What is more important to you: something you do, or something you are? Explain.
i struggle with this. i put a lot of stock in what i do and what i accomplish, but my struggle lies in wanting to be happy with who i am, not what i do.

8. Can you forgive without forgetting?
absolutely.

9. What have you been putting off so long that it makes you nervous just to think about it?
until 2 hours ago, paying the bills that were due on the 15th.

10. What should I know about you that I don't?
i don't know what you know, so here's the basics: i'm female, a butch who occasionally wears broomstick skirts, a big fat dyke, recently engaged, bipolar, a fibromyalgia sufferer, i like getting the shit kicked out of me (consensually) and occasionally beating up on others (also consentually). I'm polyamorous, an IT geek by day for a biopharma company, and I run my own catering company on the weekends when I'm officially insane. I have a "little" brother (24) and a really little sister (9 weeks). I attempted suicide in September 2003. I like bad puns, Animaniacs, Sailor Moon, teen movies, original Nintendo, and I regret the fact that I left my stuffed Eeyore with my exes' (intentionally plural) son. I'm terrible at keeping house, I smoke because I like it, and I love flannel. I'm also halfway through a very strong drink, which seems to be making my fingers babble.
