------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIBE YOUR..
[ x ] Wallet ? I don't really have one- I just shove stuff in my pockets.
[ x ] Hairbrush ? Practically broken. Has a mirror on the back.
[ x ] Toothbrush ? Purple aquafresh thing.
[ x ] Jewelry worn daily ? The cross my mama gave me and the Russian wedding ring I begged for for ten years (Jason Donovan had one. I was 7, give me a break) and my dad bought for my seventeenth birthday. And today, a celtic talisman my godfather gave me a couple of Christmases ago.
[ x ] Pillow cover ? Both purple.
[ x ] Blanket ? Michael Jackson's son. Oh, sorry... Also purple.
[ x ] Coffee cup ? A 'The Bronze' mug. Buffy merchandise purchased in LA.
[ x ] Sunglasses ? Prescription. Calvin Klein frames. Tee hee.
[ x ] Underwear ? Wouldn't you like to know?
[ x ] Favorite shirt ? My Ireland rugby shirt.
[ x ] Cologne/Perfume ? A ton of Tommy Girl my mum bought and which I hate. Hence why there's still a ton of the stuff.
[ x ] CD in stereo right now ? Houses of the Holy by Led Zeppelin.
[ x ] Tattoos ? Niente. I value my health too much. Not that tattooing is necessarily unhygenic- I'm thinking of me mam's reaction.
[ x ] Piercings ? My ears. Have no earrings to shove in at the moment.
[ x ] What you are wearing now ? Khakis that are too short and a UC Irvine sweatshirt. Need to do laundry later. And a pair of cuban heeled boots.
[ x ] In my mouth ? Am drinking Diet Coke. Big surprise there.
[ x ] In my head ? Ponderous questions of the universe. That's a lie, I'm singing along with The Crunge. Have you seen the bridge?
[ x ] Wishing - I was making movies. Wishing that Jim Morrison's death really was faked. Wishing that I didn't have to go and help my friend type her essay later.
[ x ] After this - Not much. Go to Loz's and type her essay for her.
[ x ] Fetishes ? None.
[ x ] If you could get away with it and murder anyone, and for what reason ? Well, I don't even want to kill Mark Chapman, so I don't think there's anyone I would risk getting into heaven to kill. I'll leave the murder to GWB.
[ x ] Person you wish you could see right now ? John Lennon. And actually, the Princess- she's home until Tuesday.
[ x ] Is next to you ? A stack of CDs.
[ x ] Some of your favorite movies ? Casablanca, Gone With the Wind, The Adventures of Robin Hood, the Adventures of Robin Hood, Die Hard, Some Like it Hot, A Hard Day's Night, Singin In The Rain, Gilda, Bhowani Junction, Ocean's Eleven (the old one), Cleopatra (Burton & Taylor, the Wild Geese, Take me out to the Ball Game, Gangs of New York, The Wild One, Rebel Without A Cause, Mildred Pierce, I could go on....
[ x ] Something you're looking forward to in the upcoming month ? Not much.
[ x ] The last thing you ate ? packet of crisps.
[ x ] Something that you are deathly afraid of ? I'm not afraid of dying. After that the world seems a lot less scary.

[ x ] Do you like incense ? Only if I'm in the mood for a lasting, painful headache.
[ x ] Do you like the taste of blood ? Can't imagine I'd enjoy drinking a pint of the stuff. I'm not Angel.
[ x ] Do you believe in love - Why not. Seems a good theory.
[ x ] Do you believe in soul mates - Yes. Buff, Angel. Nuff said. Fuck off Spike & Cordelia. Go back to being funny instead of vomit-inducing.
[ x ] Do you believe in love at first sight - Yes. Why the hell not?
[ x ] Do you believe in Heaven ? Yep. Errol and Dean are propping up the bar until I get there. Hopefully not too soon.
[ x ] Do you believe in God - Yes. But I don't think he goes much on all of us at the moment. Seriously, I believe that there's one god and all the religions are praying to the same one. They're just taking different paths to him, that's all.
[ x ] What do you want done with your body when you die - Not sure. I won't need it anymore. Buried on a mountaintop in Ireland maybe.
[ x ] Who is your worst enemy ? With a me like me, who needs enemies?
[ x ] If you could have any animal for a pet, what would it be ? A sabre-toothed tiger. Although someone told me that they're extinct.
[ x ] What is the latest you've ever stayed up ? Well, I've done three and a half days without sleep at all. I've done about a week with only a couple of hours sleep. I'm working on getting to Keith Richards' record of about fifty days, but I want to do it without chemical help....
[ x ] Can you eat with chopsticks - I love my special fried rice, but I need a fork.

[ x ] What's something you wish you could understand better ? Irish Gaelic.
[ x ] Who is someone that you really wish was still around ? Ah, this is the question... Jim Morrison. Errol Flynn. Dean Martin. I think if my beloved Mr Lennon was still around the world would be a greatly better place. And yet despite all of the pictures on the wall, despite the deep wish I have that Jim really did fake it, I think I'd still come right back to a lady called Anne. Her granddaughter wants a hug.
